Root Canals in Chatham

ROOT CANALS AND EXTRACTIONS (INCLUDING MOLARS)

Sometimes a tooth has been badly damaged due to decay or trauma and it is too damaged to be repaired or too infected to be treated. In those instances, the only option may be an extraction.

When an extraction is necessary, the dentist will separate the tooth from the ligament and expand the socket to pull the tooth. While the procedure can be quick, you may wish to discuss sedation options to ease any concerns and fears you may have.

If you have concerns about possible tooth extraction, talk to our dentists and get your questions answered. Our full dental services here.
