Restore Your Bite

After your mouth has healed from an extraction, Dr. Phillip Platt can walk you through your best replacement options. Here are the most common replacement solutions:

  • Dental Implants - An implant is a long-lasting solution that replaces both the root and crown of a missing tooth. You'll visit a specialist for the implant and return here for your restoration.
  • Dental Bridges - Bridges are a great option for filling a gap when surrounding teeth are healthy and strong. Bridges restore appearance and chewing ability with a seamless look.
  • Implant Crowns - An implant crown combination is ideal for replacing a single tooth. You can take care of it like you would a regular tooth.

Every smile is different. We'll help you choose a solution that fits your goals, budget, and long-term health needs.

Common Questions About Tooth Removal

When does a tooth need to be removed?

A tooth may need to be removed if it's severely decayed, cracked below the gumline, loose from gum disease, or causing pain due to crowding or infection. Dr. Platt will only recommend removal if it's the healthiest long-term choice for your smile.

What can I eat after a tooth removal?

For the first 24 to 48 hours, stick to cool, soft foods that don't require much chewing. Choose options like yogurt, applesauce, smoothies, ice cream, or mashed potatoes. Avoid anything hot, spicy, crunchy, or with small seeds that could get stuck in the extraction site. We'll provide you with a detailed food guide to help you through your recovery, and you can always call us with questions about specific foods.

Will I need to replace the tooth?

It's a good idea, yes, especially if the removed tooth is visible when you smile or plays an important role in your chewing function. Leaving a gap can cause neighboring teeth to shift over time, potentially creating bite problems or making teeth harder to clean. After your mouth has fully healed, Dr. Platt will discuss replacement options tailored to your needs.
