Oral Surgery

Comprehensive Care for Your Child’s Healthiest Smile

Certain dental issues like excessive tooth decay, tooth infection, and crowding can require a tooth extraction. Tooth extractions in North Port, FL, and the Venice, Port Charlotte, and Englewood, FL, areas at Cool Kid Dental are relatively quick outpatient procedures with either local or general anesthesia.

When Are Tooth Extractions Necessary?

Tooth Extractions are typically considered a last-resort treatment option, but certain situations may arise where pursuing this path can produce the best result. Some common reasons that Dr. Frank C. Pettinato II, DMD, MS, may recommend a tooth extraction are:

  • Restore jaw function to improve eating and speaking
  • Create space for incoming teeth
  • Improve facial appearance
  • Help facilitate later orthodontic treatment
  • Improve open bite
  • Reduce grinding or excessive wearing of teeth
