At Drs. Nicolas & Asp Centers, we always aim to help children keep their natural teeth whenever possible. However, when a tooth is severely damaged, decayed beyond repair, or a mesiodens/supernumerary tooth is causing problems, extraction may be necessary.
Our pediatric dentists examine your child’s teeth and take X-rays to determine the safest approach.
Using child-focused techniques and local anesthesia, we carefully remove the tooth while minimizing discomfort.
We provide clear instructions for home care, pain management, and healing, ensuring your child recovers quickly and comfortably.
Your Specialist Pediatric Dentist here at Drs. Nicolas & Asp Centers will provide personalized postoperative instructions to ensure a smooth and fast recovery. Here are some general care recommendations:
Apply gentle pressure with gauze to the extraction site for 30–60 minutes. If bleeding persists, contact our office.
Use a cold compress on the outside of the face near the extraction site for 20 minutes on, 20 minutes off, during the first 24 hours.
Administer over-the-counter pain relievers as directed by your pediatric dentist.
Offer soft foods and avoid hot, spicy, or crunchy items for the first few days.
Continue brushing other teeth carefully, avoiding the extraction site for the first 24 hours.
Limit physical activities for the first few days to reduce complications.
Watch for signs of infection, such as fever or persistent pain, and contact our office if these occur.
