An extraction can make both children and parents anxious, but it is a common procedure in most dental offices. Sometimes a child’s tooth has too much decay to restore, or they need a tooth or teeth removed to make room for orthodontic treatment.
Regardless of the reason, Dr. David Choi, Dr. Andrew Choi, and their team will make sure you and your child are comfortable with the treatment plan.
After some local anesthesia, the doctor will remove your child’s tooth. If it is impacted or if it is a complicated removal, the doctor will discuss with you if sedation options are recommended.
Once the tooth is removed, our skilled dentist in Riverside will give you post-op instructions and place a small piece of gauze over the extraction site to stop any bleeding and help a clot form. Check and replace the gauze every 20 minutes until the bleeding stops.
