Teeth Extractions in Pittsburgh

Teeth Extractions in Pittsburgh

Our doctor uses state-of-the-art equipment to gently extract a damaged tooth without fracturing the underlying bone. This approach provides you with more options for tooth replacement.

Experienced, Gentle Tooth Extractions

Dr. Bakuri and believe in saving your natural teeth whenever possible. However, when a tooth must be removed, our doctor provides gentle, comfortable extractions while also preserving the jawbone and tooth socket.

Preservation of the bone protects the jaw size and shape, preserves facial architecture and allows for tooth replacement in a more cosmetic fashion. It also allows for more predictable and less costly placement of dental implants. When teeth are removed in the old fashioned, faster way, bone is indiscriminately removed with the tooth. This forces us to have to rebuild the bone prior to placement of dental implants, thus increasing the expense and time involved in the dental implant process.

Minimally Invasive, Modern Approach

Our doctor takes a modern approach to tooth extraction by preserving as much jawbone as possible. Having more jawbone remaining means that you will have more options for replacing your missing tooth or teeth. Placing dental implants is much easier and more reliable when dense areas of jawbone are available to anchor the titanium post that supports the restoration, such as a crown, bridge or denture.

Using special tips, Dr. Bakuri can gently remove the damaged tooth without fracturing the underlying jawbone. This technique for dental extractions is extremely precise and results in minimal swelling and discomfort.

Socket Preservation
