Pulpotomies for Children
A pulpotomy is a common and safe dental procedure used to treat a baby tooth (primary tooth) that has a deep cavity reaching the nerve (pulp) of the tooth.
When tooth decay extends into the nerve chamber but the infection hasn't spread into the roots, a pulpotomy can help save the tooth, reduce pain, and prevent the need for an extraction.
Extractions
There are many reasons why a baby tooth might need to be extracted or taken out. It might be that the tooth is damaged beyond repair with a filling, root canal, or crown. It might also be that there is an extra permanent tooth or maybe the new permanent tooth is having trouble coming in. Sometimes the baby tooth just doesn't want to let go even though it is time for it to fall out. Whatever the reason, we will be sure to tell you all about the procedure, explain the process, and then, when you are ready, we do the required treatment ensuring both you and your child are comfortable.
