Take the first step toward enhancing your smile with tooth extraction at Bailey Dental Group in Richmond, MI...
Top Reasons for Tooth Extractions
When left untreated, cavities can significantly damage a tooth, to a point that it can no longer support a dental restoration.
Without timely treatment, the periodontal tissues and jawbone can pull away from the teeth and recede, resulting in loose teeth.
A car accident, sporting injury, or other traumatic event can result in broken, fractured, and damaged teeth that might not be savable.
In cases of overcrowding, we can remove permanent teeth so there is room for the remaining teeth to move into proper alignment.
If the wisdom teeth are impacted or growing in at an angle, it can increase the risk of tooth movement, overcrowding, and infection.

Is Tooth Extraction Painful?
At our Richmond practice, we take a gentle approach and offer anesthesia options so patients can have a pain-free and comfortable dentistry experience.
What to Expect during Your Treatment
A single tooth extraction procedure can be completed in just 30 minutes.
Tooth Extraction Recovery
Formation of the Blood Clot
Immediately after extraction, a blood clot will begin to form. It is extremely important not to disturb this blood clot because it protects the underlying bone and nerves. If it successfully stays in place, this clot can serve as the foundation of new bone and soft tissue growth.
Preventing Dry Socket
If the blood clot becomes dislodged or fails to form, it causes a painful condition known as dry socket. This also results in an empty space of bone in the socket and bad breath. The risk of dry socket is present for about seven to ten days.
Tips for a More Comfortable Healing Period
To reduce the risk of dry socket and enjoy a more comfortable recovery, patients should follow these tips:
