Extractions & Emergency Care
Many dental emergencies require same-day extractions — especially when a tooth is fractured, infected, or causing serious pain.Dr. A.R. Assadian routinely performs molar and wisdom tooth extractions, combining experience, precision, and a calm approach that helps keep you comfortable. When a tooth can't be saved, removing it promptly relieves pain, prevents infection from spreading, and sets the right foundation for future restorative options like implants or crowns.
Why Emergency Treatment Matters
Timely dental care can:
● Prevent infection from spreading● Protect your gums and bone● Reduce the risk of tooth loss● Stop oral pain quickly● Prevent more extensive (and expensive) treatment later
If something feels wrong, don't wait — urgent dental problems rarely improve on their own.
