Extractions

Dr .Goodman and Dr. Stein treat a wide ranges of problems in both adults and children including extraction of teeth.

It is sometimes necessary to extract a tooth if it is severely damaged due to decay or trauma. Wisdom teeth are another source of concern when their growth affects your other teeth.

Wisdom Teeth Extractions: Wisdom teeth are third molars that usually appear between the ages of 16 and 25 at the back of the mouth. They are commonly extracted when they affect other teeth – this is known as “impacted wisdom teeth”. Wisdom teeth can grow unnoticed until they start to cause issues in the mouth.

The Wisdom Tooth Surgical Procedure: Wisdom teeth are extracted either because they have already become impacted or because they are potentially problematic. The extraction of wisdom teeth can be a troublesome procedure. For more complicated procedures we will recommend an oral surgeon.
