Tooth Extractions In Midtown and Magnolia

At FLOSS, we provide a wide range of dental care services, including tooth extraction and treatments designed to preserve your viable teeth and maintain healthy teeth and gums. We cooperate with you and your family to find the best options for your specific needs and under your budget. Here are some of the most essential facts about tooth extraction.

How Much Does a Tooth Extraction Cost?

The cost of tooth extraction in Houston, TX varies according to several factors. It could change depending on whether you require oral surgery or a simple extraction procedure. We’ll give an exact estimate of all your dental extraction costs, and we’ll cooperate with your dental insurance or discount plan to reduce your out-of-pocket expenses.

What Is an Oral Surgery Extraction?

People opt for oral surgery when your tooth has not popped out through your gum tissues yet or if it is impacting or pressing on a different tooth. This is frequently the case with wisdom teeth, which may need oral surgery to ensure a safe extraction. We can refer you to an oral surgeon for your tooth extraction if required.

Is Having My Tooth Pulled Out The Only Option I Have?

If your tooth is still intact, our dentists at Floss Dental will do everything possible to save it and offer you the help you need to preserve your damaged or broken teeth from further harm. Tooth removal is perhaps the most practical solution for teeth that have been significantly affected by decay or other issues. We’ll go over all of your options with you to make sure you understand the tooth extraction procedure and the cost of the services we’ll provide.

Can I Have My Decayed, Cracked, or Broken Teeth Extracted At Your Office?

Here at Floss Dental of Houston, TX, we provide root canal treatments and other services meant to preserve your remaining teeth. If none of these options work for you, you can have your tooth extracted in our office or by an oral surgeon. In most situations, removing a tooth also removes the cause of pain, making it an excellent solution for people suffering from toothaches. After your tooth extraction procedure, we will discuss all the available options with you for replacing your missing tooth to ensure a healthy bite.

Why Are Baby Teeth Removed Sometimes?

If your child’s baby teeth are preventing the eruption of adult teeth, we may need to extract them to make a place for healthy tooth development. Infected or rotting teeth may also need to be removed to improve your children’s dental health.

Will Teeth Extractions Be Necessary In Case Of Advanced Gum Disease?

Advanced periodontal disease that has led to the loosening of your teeth may need their extraction. If it is practical, the dental staff at Floss Dental of Houston, TX will try to save your teeth. We can also perform tooth extractions for teeth that are no longer viable and need to be removed to maintain good oral health. This will usually reduce the pain right away and help you and your family to handle gum disease as effectively as possible.

Do Wisdom Teeth Need to Be Removed?

Wisdom teeth usually emerge during adolescence and early adulthood. This third set of molars can lead to significant crowding of the adjacent teeth, as well as infections or harm to the surrounding teeth. Wisdom teeth extractions are rather common, and they are performed to prevent the damage even before it begins. Additionally, they provide several therapeutic advantages to patients suffering from pain and discomfort from impacted wisdom teeth

What Happens If My Teeth Are Too Crowded?

You may suffer from pain in your gums or jaw if your mouth is too tiny for your adult teeth. Teeth that are very crowded could lead to crooked or misaligned teeth structures. If you opt for braces to straighten your teeth, our Houston, TX dentists at Floss Dental may need to pull one or more teeth to make a place for them to settle into the proper positions in your mouth.

How To Take Proper Care Of My Teeth and Gums After an Extraction Procedure?

Regular aftercare instructions for an extraction procedure usually include a list of activities that you must avoid for the next 24 to 48 hours. Following these directions will guarantee that your extraction site recovers as quickly as possible and that your surgical treatment does not result in any undesirable issues.

How Quickly Will The Site Of Extraction Heal?

The recovery process after your tooth extraction procedure generally takes some time. Your dentist will provide you with specific instructions on how to take care of your teeth and gums. If you have undergone oral surgery, your recovery time may be a little longer than the rest.

I highly recommend Dr. Castillo & her staff. She is very thorough & knowledgeable. My hygienist, Jill, is excellent & has a light touch. Everyone is very friendly and address all questions & concerns you have. I have had poor dental experiences in the past and have had difficulty finding a group I trust and feel confident in. So far my visits here have been positive & I feel really good about continuing care with them!

This Office is by far one of the best dental offices known to mankind. Dr Tran is beyond knowledgeable in her field and super patient.I used to hate going to the dentist until I found them. She is so professional and takes pride in what she does by making sure you’re well informed and comfortable through out the whole procedure.The office NEVER outsold me with unwarranted treatments just because of your insurance coverage like other offices. I feel so blessed to have a dentist I can trust. I highly recommend Floss Dental. Honestly, she’s the real deal.

This is only my second time here and I won’t be going anywhere else! The office is clean and well kept, Tisha (I think she’s the office manager) is AMAZING, and so friendly. You truly feel like part of a family when you go there! Dr. Chung is literally the best with describing everything in ways you understand, tips on how to maintain your dental hygiene and talks you through the whole process. Highly recommend. If I could give more than 5 stars I would!

I normally don’t like visiting dentist offices, but I would recommend this one. Really felt at ease.

I came to Floss on an emergency situation with an infected wisdom tooth.. after avoiding the dentist for 10 years I finally had to go in. The doctors and staff at Floss took the best care of me. I got all 4 wisdom teeth removed and just went back today for a follow up and they all greeted me with a smile and by name. I felt so well taken care of and can’t imagine going to another dentist.
