Tooth Extractions in Saint Paul, MN

Dental extractions are one of the most commonly performed procedures in modern dentistry. Thanks to the caring touch of Dr. Salmanpour and the advanced equipment used at Little Canada Dental, it’s a procedure that is also gently performed. If you suspect that you or a family member may benefit from a dental extraction, we invite you to make an appointment today with our dentist near you to learn more about this service and more from Little Canada Dental.

Types of Tooth Extractions Near You

Although dental extractions can be performed on every tooth, only two tooth removal procedures are used. These are simple tooth extraction and surgical tooth extraction. As the naming conventions imply, simple tooth extraction does not require cutting into the gum tissue, unlike surgical tooth extraction.

Our goal at Little Canada Dental is to help every patient keep their natural teeth for a lifetime. However, there are instances when an extraction is necessary. These include:

• Cavities and infections that can’t be treated with other measures to prevent further health concerns.
• Oral trauma that does not respond to dental restoration treatment.
• Impacted teeth (usually one or more wisdom teeth) become trapped in the jawbone during their eruption.
• Orthodontic treatment to correct misaligned teeth or crowded teeth.

When you visit our dentist in Saint Paul, MN, you’ll receive a treatment plan from Dr. Salmanpour that includes information about the type of extraction that will be performed. Of course, you’ll also be able to ask any questions you have about the procedure during your appointment. If you’re an anxious patient or have concerns about the procedure, make sure to ask us about sedation dentistry to help make your extraction more comfortable.
