When you and your child arrive at the office of Dr. Simi Abraham for extraction, your child will usually be given nitrous oxide through a mask. This will relax your child. Numbing gel along with local anesthetic will be administered and the tooth will be loosened and removed. If the tooth is broken or hasn’t erupted from the gums, then an incision will usually need to be made. Bleeding will be controlled and appropriate home care instructions will be given to you.
If you believe that your child might have a tooth that needs to be extracted, contact our office in Carrollton so that we can set up an appointment.
