At Burvant Family Dentistry, we prioritize your long-term oral health, especially after a tooth extraction. One of the key services we offer is Extraction Site Preservation, a procedure designed to maintain the integrity of your jawbone and ensure optimal healing following tooth removal.
When removing a tooth it is important to consider what will be done with the empty space after that tooth is removed. Wisdom teeth are in the back of the mouth, so that site will heal on its own with no complications. When a tooth is extracted, the surrounding bone can begin to deteriorate due to resorption. This can create problems in your bite and affect your ability to speak and chew. Extraction Site Preservation helps combat this by placing a bone graft material in the extraction site immediately after the tooth is removed. This process encourages the growth of new bone and helps preserve the natural contours of your jaw for future restorative procedures, such as dental implants or bridges.
Our experienced team will assess your individual needs and explain the benefits of Extraction Site Preservation as part of your treatment plan. We utilize advanced techniques and materials to provide you with a comfortable experience and promote effective healing.
