Extractions

Welcome to Lux Dental, your trusted destination for exceptional dental care in Michigan. If you’re experiencing tooth pain or have a severely damaged or infected tooth, our experienced team of dentists can provide safe and comfortable extractions to alleviate your discomfort and protect your oral health.

Tooth extraction is a dental procedure in which a tooth is removed from its socket in the jawbone. While our goal at Lux Dental is to preserve your natural teeth whenever possible, there are certain situations where an extraction may be necessary. This can include severe tooth decay, advanced gum disease, impacted wisdom teeth, or teeth that are overcrowded and affecting the alignment of your smile.

When you visit Lux Dental for a tooth extraction, our skilled team will first conduct a comprehensive examination to evaluate your oral health and determine the best course of action. We will take the time to discuss the reasons for extraction and address any concerns or questions you may have. Our compassionate dentists will ensure that you feel comfortable and well-informed throughout the process.

Prior to the extraction, our team will administer a local anesthetic to numb the area around the tooth. This ensures that you feel minimal discomfort during the procedure. For more complex extractions or in cases where multiple teeth need to be removed, we also offer sedation options to help you relax and alleviate any anxiety or fear.

Once the area is numb, our dentists will carefully and gently remove the tooth from its socket using specialized instruments. Our focus is on maintaining your comfort and ensuring a smooth extraction process. If necessary, we may place sutures to aid in the healing process. Our team will provide you with detailed post-extraction instructions to promote proper healing and minimize any discomfort or complications.

At Lux Dental, we understand that extractions can be an overwhelming experience. Our caring and supportive team will be by your side throughout the process, providing personalized care and attention. We offer a comfortable and relaxed environment to help you feel at ease, and our dentists will answer any questions you may have before, during, and after the extraction.

After the extraction, it’s important to follow our post-operative instructions to promote proper healing and minimize the risk of infection. Our team will provide you with guidance on pain management, diet, and oral hygiene practices to ensure a smooth recovery. We are committed to your well-being and will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your healing progress and discuss any further treatment options if necessary.
