What Are Some Reasons for Tooth Removal?
Why might your child need a tooth extraction? We can remove both baby teeth and permanent teeth if it is needed. Some of the reasons your child may need teeth pulled are listed below.
Dental Infection
Sometimes advanced tooth decay reaches the center of the tooth. It can infect the blood vessels and nerves and cause severe pain for your child. In this case, we may recommend extraction.
Loose Baby Tooth
Some baby teeth may require a dentist’s help when they’re ready to come out but don’t fall out on their own. A gentle extraction can help prevent pain or infection, and allow the permanent tooth to come in properly.
Gum Disease
Gum disease can cause baby teeth or adult teeth to become loose. We can use tooth extraction and replacement to rebuild your child’s healthy smile.

Expect Excellence at Pediatric Dental Center
Burlington, Cold Spring, and Florence children who need to have teeth pulled will likely feel nervous about it. We understand kids and their concerns at Pediatric Dental Center. We strive to make them feel comfortable with numbing agents, sedation options, and lots of fun patient amenities.
Before a tooth extraction, the Pediatric Dental Center team can explain everything to your child, to sooth and educate them about what is happening. We will make sure your children are comfortable and relaxed.
Here’s what you can expect for your child during the tooth extraction procedure:
- The dentist will numb the area around the tooth, including the surrounding gums and the jawbone.
- The dentist will rock the tooth gently back and forth. Your child should not feel any pain, just some pressure.
- We remove the tooth. If absolutely necessary, we can use stitches to replace the gum to its optimal position.
“Dr. Soper and his team are amazing. Including the staff at the front desk. They’re extremely professional and compassionate. My child had a dental surgery and they were amazing at explaining everything and calming down my nerves.”
– Carly R.
