Safe and Comfortable Tooth Extractions in Baltimore, MD

At our Baltimore office, Dr. Byron Desbordes performs both simple and surgical tooth extractions:

• Simple Extractions: For teeth that are visible and easily accessible.
• Surgical Extractions: For impacted or broken teeth that require a more complex removal.

We use advanced technology, including digital X-rays, to ensure precision and minimize discomfort during the procedure. Our priority is to protect the health of your surrounding teeth and gums.

Your comfort is our top priority. Here’s what you can expect during your tooth extraction:

1. Initial Evaluation: We’ll assess your oral health using digital X-rays and recommend the best course of action.
2. Numbing the Area: Local anesthesia is used to numb the extraction site completely. For patients with dental anxiety, sedation options are also available.
3. Tooth Removal: Dr. Desbordes uses advanced tools and techniques to safely and efficiently extract the tooth.
4. Post-Procedure Care: We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery, including tips for managing discomfort and protecting the area.

After a tooth extraction, following the right aftercare steps can make all the difference in your recovery. Here are some tips to ensure optimal healing:

• Bite down on gauze to control bleeding for the first 30–45 minutes.
• Avoid drinking through a straw or eating hard foods for the first 24–48 hours.
• Rinse with warm salt water starting 24 hours after the procedure.
• Take prescribed medications or over-the-counter pain relievers as directed.

If you experience prolonged discomfort, swelling, or bleeding, contact our office immediately for assistance.
