Tooth Extraction
Speak with your Little Healthy Smiles pediatric dentist to go over your options for replacing a missing tooth after extraction.
Despite your best efforts, teeth sometimes need to be removed to protect your health. When we’ve discussed all other possibilities, and you’ve decided on extraction, we’ll take every step to help you.
Your well-being always takes priority in any treatment decision. Some patients prefer sedation to help with oral surgery, and we can review these options in your treatment plan. You can trust we take every measure to make sure even minor surgical procedures are as comfortable as possible.
While our immediate concern is the short-term management of your care, we will also discuss your long-term plans for replacing missing teeth.
Spaces in your smile can create appearance and function challenges that are important to consider. With a missing tooth, your teeth will slowly shift or migrate into open spaces and possibly cause an unbalanced bite that can cause issues later in life.

Since teeth help nourish our bodies and support our confidence, we will help you find a game plan that fits your short and long-term goals. Call us today to start and maintain healthy habits for your child.
