Porcelain Veneers

Simple extraction: &nbsp;If the tooth can still be seen in the mouth above the gum line, we can perform a simple extraction in which Dr. Phan loosens the tooth and then lifts it out with forceps.
Surgical extraction: If the tooth has broken off below the gum line or never erupted, such as in the case of an impacted wisdom tooth, a surgical extraction is necessary. Dr. Phan must make an incision to remove the tooth, which is why the procedure is considered surgical in nature.

This patient wanted to lengthen her lateral incisor and we made the surface even with her canine so the tooth was no longer recessed.
