Tooth Extractions in Renton, WA

Tooth Extractions Near You!

If a tooth is decaying or impacted, it might not be able to be saved and will need to be removed from the mouth.  Epic Dental offers tooth extractions in Renton, WA, to our patients in these situations to maintain their mouths healthy and looking good.

Tooth extraction is a type of dental therapy in which a dentist extracts a tooth from a patient's mouth because it cannot be saved or is infected, potentially leading to additional health problems.

when is a tooth extraction needed?

There are a few reasons a tooth might need to be removed:

Severe tooth decay or infection that can'tbe treated with a filling or root canal
Cracked or broken teeth that arebeyond repair
Advanced gum disease causes loose teeth
Impacted wisdom teeth or molars that don't have room to grow in
Crowding in preparation for orthodontic treatment (like braces or Invisalign)

Before any tooth extraction near you, we'll walk you through your options and only proceed if necessary.

types of tooth extractions we offer

Simple Extractions
This is done when the tooth is prominent and easily accessible. After numbing the area, we gently loosen and remove the tooth using dental instruments.
Surgical Extractions
If the tooth is impacted (like a wisdom tooth) or broken below the gumline, we may need to make a small incision to remove it safely. This is done under local anesthesia, and sedation options are available if required.

what can i expect after receiving tooth extractions?

To guarantee you experience the least amount of discomfort possible, we start the procedure by numbing the area with a local anaesthetic. To reduce the stress on the surrounding tissue, the tooth is extracted using delicate methods and cutting-edge instruments. We will give clear post-treatment instructions following the tooth extraction in Renton to promote appropriate healing and help avoid complications like dry socket. Our staff is committed to ensuring you are thoroughly informed and comfortable before, during, and after your procedure.
