Tooth Extraction for Kids Charlottesville
Gentle, safe removal when a tooth is beyond repair
Safe solutions for severely damaged teeth
Our goal is always to save your child’s natural tooth with fillings or crowns. However, if a tooth is broken or damaged by decay beyond repair, it may need to be removed.
Our compassionate team performs extractions with the utmost care so your child remains comfortable and stress-free throughout the procedure.
Why tooth extraction for kids
is sometimes needed
While we prefer to preserve natural teeth, removing a damaged tooth is sometimes the best way to protect your child’s overall health. Tooth extraction for kids is necessary to:
- Relieve severe pain caused by deep decay or infection
- Prevent dangerous bacteria from spreading to other parts of the mouth or body
- Make room for permanent teeth if a baby tooth is not falling out on its own
- Prepare the mouth for orthodontic treatment, in some cases
Removing a problematic tooth clears the way for a healthier smile and prevents more serious complications.
