Extractions
Our dentists try to preserve your natural teeth to the best of our capabilities. However, an extraction may be needed when decay or disease has made the tooth unsalvageable. Depending on which tooth is removed, we offer replacements such as implants or dentures in order to supplement the missing teeth.
