Infected or broken teeth often cannot be repaired and must be removed. If there is enough bone in the jaw, a dental implant can be used to replace the removed tooth. Dr. Benjamin Yagoubian is an oral surgeon at Torrance Oral Surgery and Dental Implant Center who can perform removal of an infected/broken tooth at our facility in Torrance, CA.

In this short video, Dr. Benjamin Yagoubian discusses one of his patients who required removal of an infected/broken tooth. Dr. Yagoubian explains that the patient had a badly infected and broken tooth that needed to be removed. You will see short clips of the actual patient during the removal of an infected/broken tooth. The tooth socket was cleaned, and a graft was placed to help increase the bone. Months later, the patient returned to Torrance Oral Surgery and Dental Implant Center to have the titanium post for their dental implant inserted to replace the missing tooth. Dr. Yagoubian performed the implant procedure, which will allow a prosthetic tooth to be attached to the implant to restore normal function for the tooth.

If you require removal of an infected/broken tooth, Torrance Oral Surgery and Dental Implant Center can perform both the extraction and dental implant procedure. Call our facility in Torrance, CA to schedule an appointment.
