dentistry procedures.
Dental
Extraction
There are several reasons
to extract a tooth from your mouth, including decay, crowding
and periodontal disease. If you are experiencing a severe
toothache, contact cosmetic dental care immediately to
find out whether you need an emergency dental extraction.
Our Sydney area emergency dental practice can help relieve
you of any pain so the healing process can begin. If left
untreated, a damaged tooth may cause additional problems,
as well as continued discomfort.
The
Dental Extraction Process
First, a local anesthetic
will be used to numb the area. We also provide general anesthesia
to lessen anxiety about the dental extraction procedure. A
general anesthetic will allow you to sleep through the entire
procedure. Following your dental extraction, our professional
dentist may provide you with stitches.
The dental extraction
recovery process generally lasts only a few days. During this
time you will need to rinse your mouth out with warm salt
water to accelerate the healing process and to reduce swelling.
We will also provide you with a comprehensive list of practices
to help lessen recovery time.

Periodontal
(Gum) Disease
Sore, bleeding gums
may be a sign of periodontal, or gum, disease. Our Sydney
area emergency dental practice can help. A serious gum disorder,
periodontal disease affects the gums and other soft tissues
of the mouth. An earlier form of periodontal disease, gingivitis
is caused by the build up of toxic bacteria in the mouth,
usually between teeth and under the gum line where plaque
and food particles collect.
Symptoms of periodontal
disease include sore, receding or bleeding gums. Sydney area
residents can take advantage of a variety of treatment options
available at cosmetic dental care. Treatment includes
soft tissue grafting, pocket reduction and regeneration.
