To Our Patients,

We understand and deeply respect that you may be concerned about Coronavirus in public places… even at our state-of-the-art sterilized office.

At Great Smiles Dental Care, I want to assure you that our office has even further heightened our already rigid sterilization safeguards and office cleaning standards to minimize the possibility of transmission to our outstanding team…or to you, our valued patient. We have always far exceeded all standards for sterilization and patient care.

Our first priority is always the health and well-being of our patients. And that is a priority we take extremely seriously, even with the current disruptions we’re all experiencing.

Your dental health remains important to us as it plays such an important role in your overall health.

When you visit our office, you’ll see we’ve taken all the necessary steps to ensure you have the best patient experience possible. If you are experiencing any symptoms, please do not come to our office and call us to reschedule your appointment. We care for you and all our patients. If we see any symptoms in our patients or our team, we will reschedule the appointment on the spot and send that individual home.

It is just one more way that we can show our high level of care for you…and for everyone in our community. We very much look forward to seeing you, your family, and your friends very soon.

Sincerely,

Dr. Eric Wendelschafer
Great Smiles Dental Care

Enjoy Optimal Oral Health Again

Nobody likes to think about having a tooth extracted. The truth is, removing a tooth is actually our last option when it comes to helping a patient. It is better if a patient can keep their natural teeth in place whenever possible.

However, extracting a tooth can become necessary when leaving it in would lead to further problems. A diseased tooth can eventually damage your gums and your other healthy teeth, not to mention cause you a great deal of pain.

In these situations, Dr. Wendelschafer will remove your tooth as gently as possible. We’ll use a local anesthetic to make sure that the area we’re working on is completely numb and that you don’t feel any pain. We’ll also give you complete aftercare instructions to make sure your healing process is quick and comfortable.

Replace Your Missing Tooth For Best Results

Whenever you lose a tooth, your other teeth can begin shifting positions. Eventually, you can develop issues with your bite, and the jawbone in the area of the missing tooth can begin to deteriorate. That’s why it’s best to replace the tooth if possible.

A dental implant is the preferred method of tooth replacement. Dr. Wendelschafer will insert a small metal post into your jaw and, after a period of healing, attach a crown to it. Not only will the implant-crown combination restore your bite, it will also prevent your other teeth from shifting and help keep your jawbone healthy.

Call us today if you need tooth removal in Surprise: 623-321-2169. We’re here to help! Feel free to take advantage of our comfort options that include pillows, blankets, and headphones.

Common Questions About Tooth Removal/Extractions

Dr. Wendelschafer and our compassionate dental team will do everything we can to ensure that your tooth extraction is comfortable. We’ll numb the area of your mouth we’re working on so that you don’t feel any discomfort at all. In addition, you can enjoy amenities like pillows, blankets, TVs, and headphones to help distract you during your procedure.

A dry socket occurs when the blood clot that has formed where your tooth was removed is dislodged or dissolves. The nerves and bone are then left exposed to food and air, creating intense pain. If you rinse and spit often after your extraction, use a straw, or eat hard foods, you increase your chances of experiencing a dry socket.

Yes, tooth extractions are safe, especially in the hands of a dentist as experienced as Dr. Wendelschafer. While saving a patient’s tooth is always our top priority, if an extraction is necessary to protect your overall oral health, we can perform this procedure efficiently and comfortably. In addition, we’ll provide you with complete aftercare instructions so you have a comfortable healing period.
