Expert Tooth Extractions
Tooth extractions are a necessary dental procedure available at Summit Dental Akron, located in the heart of Akron, OH. Whether due to severe decay, infection, or orthodontic reasons, our skilled dental team is equipped to perform safe and efficient extractions. This treatment involves the removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone, carried out under local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort.
Who Requires Tooth Extractions?
Extractions are often necessary for patients in Akron who have teeth that are beyond repair, such as those severely damaged by trauma or decay. They are also performed on impacted wisdom teeth that may cause pain or lead to further dental complications. At Summit Dental Akron, we carefully evaluate each case to determine if an extraction is the best course of action, considering all possible conservative treatments before proceeding.
