Emergency Extractions

Springfield VA Endodontist

At Springfield Lorton Endodontics, our primary goal is to preserve your natural teeth using advanced endodontic treatments such as root canal therapy and retreatment. However, we understand that there are times when the extent of infection, trauma, or structural damage renders a tooth unsalvageable. In these urgent situations, emergency extractions become necessary to protect your overall oral health and provide immediate relief.

Our Endodontic Approach to Emergency Extractions

Even when extraction is the best course of action, Dr. Janabi will consult with your primary general dentist and oral surgeon to coordinate treatment. In certain circumstances, your dentist might not be available or he/she requests to perform extraction immediately to relieve your pain.

• Administer effective local anesthesia for maximum comfort
• Employ gentle, precise techniques to remove the tooth while preserving surrounding structures
• Minimize post-operative discomfort and promote faster healing

Aftercare and Future Planning

Following an emergency extraction, proper aftercare is essential. Our team will provide you with detailed instructions on managing discomfort, maintaining oral hygiene, and scheduling follow-up visits to monitor your healing process. We also collaborate with restorative specialists to explore options for replacing the extracted tooth, ensuring that your long-term function and smile aesthetics are restored.

Your Health, Our Priority

At Springfield Lorton Endodontics, every treatment decision is made with your overall health and well-being in mind.
