New York Dental Concerns about tooth extraction

Dec. 8th 2010

My six year old needs  tooth extraction.  It is on the bottom right in the middle.   The tooth just went bad and he has no other tooth decay but the dentist said it is too far gone to save. That it needs to be pulled and the my son should get a space maintainers in so that his teeth do not shift and it would keep the room open for his adult tooth to come in.

My son just never had to have so much dental work done.  I am a little worried about him having a tooth extraction.  What are some of the thing I should be prepare for

Sep. 9th 2010

My son is 14 but needs to have braces, before they will put braces on he has to have two of the bottom Wisdom Teeth pulled.  Will getting insurance help with the wisdom teeth extractions?   I am good for braces since I my brother inlaw will be the one putting them on.  ( nice to have an orthodontic dentist in the family)  However he does not pull teeth.  Need advise for a good plan that will help me.

Baby Dental Care, After care of teeth extractions

Jul. 14th 2010

My daughter will be having two baby teeth pulled by the dentist.  She is 12 and the two baby teeth are in the back.   The dentist said they should be pulled since the adult teeth are there and are not pushing the baby teeth out.

I am wondering about how long will it take the dentist to pull the baby teeth.  My daughter will not be going to sleep she will only be numbed out.  After she has the teeth pulled will she be in a lot of pain?  What kind of aftercare treatment is there?   Advise would be good I have never had any teeth pulled by the dentist so I am not sure the process.

Adult tooth behind baby tooth, Should I have baby tooth pulled

Jul. 4th 2010

My son who is seven has a permanent tooth coming out behind a baby tooth.  The baby tooth is loose but has not came out yet.  I am not sure if I should continue to wait it out and see if the baby tooth falls out, or if I should got to the dentist to have it pulled.

I thought the adult teeth pushes out the baby tooth.  This will be his first baby tooth to come out so I am not sure why it just does not come out.  I do not want to pull on it.  So advice please.
