Tooth Extractions

Sometimes a tooth cannot be saved by a traditional dental restoration, such as a dental filling or dental crown. When this happens, you may require a tooth removal to keep the rest of your mouth healthy. Dr. Veena Ammal will discuss replacement options with you before the treatment, to help ensure you get the most out of your smile. Schedule a consultation at Smileaway Family Dentistry with our dentist and team to learn more about tooth extractions in Cordova, Tennessee. Call us at 901-334-1900.

Much like the name suggests, tooth extractions are the removal of teeth. Our skilled dentist will only suggest removal if your teeth cannot be repaired with traditional dental restorations, such as dental fillings, dental inlays or onlays, or dental crowns.

The most common reasons for tooth extractions are:

• Infection

• Tooth decay

• Crowding

If it is determined that a tooth must be removed, our dentist will carefully extract the problem tooth and take every precaution to help your experience be as comfortable as possible. During a personalized consultation before the procedure is scheduled, we will also discuss replacement options with you, which will help you choose the correct treatment to restore the function, health, and beauty of your smile. After your tooth is extracted, our dentist and team will provide you with a list of instructions on how to keep your mouth healthy as you heal.
