Tooth extraction is a fairly common practice among general dentists. However, complex extractions require the care of specialized professionals. In such a situation, your dentist will quickly refer you to Dr. David, a dental surgeon.
What are these complex cases?
As we have just mentioned, dental extractions are not always straightforward.
Some examples of complex cases:
In addition, certain circumstances such as taking specific medications, particular medical conditions or acute anxiety related to the extraction may increase the risk level associated with surgical procedures. In such cases, the expertise of a dental surgeon is required.
Following the extraction of a tooth, it is important to plan its replacement in order to avoid the development of aesthetic and functional problems, as well as to ensure the protection of the surrounding teeth and the jaw. The maxillofacial surgeon is the professional best placed to discuss replacement solutions and to evaluate the need for dental implants.
if you are faced with a situation requiring a complex extraction, your dentist will make a point of referring you to a specialized professional such as Dr. David, dedicated to offering you the best possible option for your case, your comfort and the limitation of potential complications.
