A tooth extraction may be necessary because of decay, trauma or crowding. Before an extraction, the following restorative options should be considered:
Root Canal Therapy
Crowns

- Be aware of the recommendations for aftercare.
Tips for a smooth extraction recovery:
- Avoid smoking for the recommended amount of time following your extraction.
- Avoid rinsing your mouth vigorously.
- Avoid drinking through a straw for 24 hours.
- Follow the diet your dentist suggests.
