Tooth extraction — painless, trauma-free, and without complications

Tooth extraction is an undesirable and last-resort option. The dentists at Laurus Dent Plus try to use it only when the tooth can no longer be saved.

When a patient complains of unbearable pain, we immediately anesthetize the affected area and then carry out detailed diagnostics using visual and instrumental methods. A precise dental X-ray and electric pulp testing are performed according to the established procedure. Before starting any surgical manipulation, a dentist in Riga will assess the overall condition of the teeth and oral cavity, as well as the specifics of treatment for the surrounding tissues.

Unfortunately, in some cases tooth extraction is unavoidable. Surgical intervention is inevitable if the inflammatory process around the tooth is irreversible or if the damaged tooth crown cannot be restored. Sometimes the specialists at our dental clinic are forced to extract a tooth for orthodontic purposes, when comprehensive bite correction and replacement of improperly positioned teeth are involved. Tooth extraction is also unavoidable if the tooth has been broken as a result of trauma.

Laurus Dent Plus Dental Clinic in Riga is equipped with modern equipment that allows us to use innovative technologies and effective medications, ensuring a painless and non-traumatic procedure, minimizing discomfort during the healing process, and promoting rapid tissue recovery for further prosthetic treatment. After the procedure is completed, the dentist in Riga will recommend optimal care and hygiene measures.

How to avoid tooth extraction

Timely treatment of acute and chronic forms of caries helps avoid the extraction of a painful tooth in the future.

Toothache is not an abstract sensation that can simply be eliminated with medication. Acute caries constantly reminds you of itself with pain when consuming cold or hot food and during tooth brushing.

A chronic form of caries is much more dangerous, because as it progresses, the softening of infected dentin leads to the enlargement of carious cavities, with constant trapping and decomposition of food particles, which provokes an irreversible inflammatory process.

Timely contact with a dental clinic makes it possible to find an individual approach to preserving teeth. The dentists at Laurus Dent Plus recommend not ignoring professional hygiene — in this case, you can avoid complex treatment and tooth extraction.
