Baby teeth are essential for proper chewing, speech development, and guiding adult teeth into place.
Once an extraction is determined as the best option, we use local anesthesia to gently numb the area around the tooth. This ensures your child feels no pain during the procedure. Our team takes the time to explain each step in kid-friendly terms to ease any nervousness.
When the area is numb, Dr. Sasco carefully removes the tooth using specialized tools. For teeth that are more difficult to remove, such as baby molars or impacted teeth, the tooth may be taken out in small sections. Throughout the process, we prioritize your child’s comfort and well-being.
If a tooth is severely decayed, infected, or damaged, it can cause significant pain. Removing the tooth provides immediate relief and allows your child to eat, smile, and play comfortably again.
An untreated tooth can spread decay or infection to other teeth and gums. Extracting the problem tooth keeps your child’s smile healthy and prevents further complications.
Another advantage of dental bonding is that it requires minimal tooth enamel removal compared to veneers and crowns. This makes it a more conservative treatment that preserves more of your child's natural tooth structure.
Baby teeth typically fall out naturally, but sometimes they need a little extra help to keep your child’s smile healthy.
