Tooth extraction is one of the most common procedures that Dr. Feldmanis performs at our family dentistry in Eugene, Oregon. There are a variety of reasons why Dr. Feldmanis may decide that a tooth must be removed, including misaligned or crowded teeth, broken teeth, severe tooth decay or in preparation for upcoming dental work.
If Dr. Feldmanis does determine a tooth extraction is needed, she will first discuss any possible complications involved. That’s because even the removal of a single tooth can result in the remaining teeth shifting as well as impact chewing and jaw health. Rest assured, Dr. Feldmanis will keep you informed of the process every step of the way.
For Eugene, Oregon dentist Dr. Feldmanis, as well as the rest of our team, comprehensive and compassionate dental care is paramount. Any tooth extraction will be pain-free because the tooth, surrounding gums and jawbone will all be numbed with a local anesthetic. We will also ensure that detailed post-operative instructions will be given after the appointment along with any necessary pain prescriptions.
