CHILDREN’S TOOTH EXTRACTIONS FRANKFORT

Gentle & Safe Tooth Removal

At Growing Smiles, we always strive to preserve your child’s healthy, natural teeth through the years – but sadly, there are situations where a restorative solution just isn’t possible. If we find ourselves faced with an extremely problematic baby tooth or an adult tooth that’s become severely damaged by infection or injury, our dentists may recommend a children's tooth extraction in Frankfort to better preserve your child’s oral health and overall well-being. Also, orthodontists often recommend primary or permanent tooth extractions as part of their treatment plan, in which case, all of our dentists are able to extract the prescribed teeth. Nitrous oxide sedation dentistry is available to help keep your child completely comfortable throughout the process.

When Are Children's Tooth Extractions Necessary?

Normally, we like to let Mother Nature decide when it’s time for your child’s teeth to come out, but we may recommend a tooth extraction if:

• The tooth can’t be repaired with a filling or crown
• An infection has destabilized the root and made it loose
• More room is needed for orthodontic treatment
• A stubborn baby tooth is blocking an erupting adult tooth
