The Tooth Extraction
Process
Dr. Esmael Valdez begins each extraction with a thorough examination and X-rays to assess the tooth’s condition and surrounding structures. Local anesthesia ensures your comfort throughout the procedure. Simple extractions involve loosening and removing the tooth, while surgical extractions may be necessary for impacted or broken teeth. Post-extraction care instructions help ensure proper healing and prevent complications in Santa Fe, New Mexico. If you’re interested in preventive measures, consider our fluoride treatments to strengthen your teeth and reduce the risk of future issues.
