Keys to Preventing Dental Emergencies

While it’s comforting to know you have someone you can turn to when a dental emergency occurs, it is better to prevent them if you can. Not all injuries are avoidable, but if you want to lower your risk for severe damage, there are steps you can take. From improving your oral hygiene routine to wearing proper mouth protection, being proactive about the safety of your smile will be beneficial in the long run.
Tooth Extractions

One of our goals is to help you keep your natural teeth as long as possible. Unfortunately, a tooth must be removed if it might potentially harm your oral and overall health. Dr. Keanna will safely remove the periodontal ligament for a swifter and more successful procedure. This type of treatment is recommended if gum disease is damaging the bone, wisdom teeth are impacted or painful, or your tooth is damaged and cannot be restored. Our extraction process focuses on atraumatic tooth removal and on removing the periodontal ligament, then we focus on socket preservation. This is an involved process in which the bone is given the nutrients it needs to repair and make its own bone tissue faster. We do not use cadaver or animal derived grafts in our dental office.
