Unfortunately you can suddenly break off or shatter a tooth in an accident. The infection in a decayed tooth can worsen quickly and painfully.

That’s why our dentists are available for emergency tooth extraction in Calgary.
Often tooth extraction is done on an emergency basis, and Forest Lawn Dental Centre makes walk-in services available so you may receive timely treatment. We encourage you to call us immediately with any dental emergency.
Consult a Dentist about Tooth Extraction
Whether you are considering dentures or you have one painfully damaged tooth, consult with a dentist at Forest Lawn Dental Centre to discuss all of your options and review all of the information about removing problem teeth. Your teeth at their best can last a lifetime, but circumstances of health and chance sometimes say otherwise. The reasons to extract one tooth or several teeth include:
- Extreme tooth damage from trauma or decay
- Periodontal or gum disease that loosens teeth
- Infection or abscess that threatens the health of the jawbone
- Preparation for orthodontic treatment
- Preparation for full or partial dentures
Your dentist may recommend a dental implant to replace your extracted tooth to help keep your bite and remaining teeth stable and aligned. As with any dental procedure, the team at Forest Lawn will give you instructions to minimize infection risk and discomfort after any tooth extraction at our Calgary dental centre.
