Is your child or teen in need of a dental extraction or wisdom tooth treatment? You can trust the same pediatric dentist that keeps their smile healthy! Dr. Michael Wilkerson offers top pediatric dental services in Boerne, TX, and beyond, offering a friendly, warm approach and decades of professional experience.
Sedation Dentistry For Oral Surgeries
For patients who are undergoing surgical procedures, The Kids Place offers a selection of sedation dentistry methods to keep them comfortable and at ease. Our sedation dentistry options work well for young patients who experience dental anxiety, fear, or have special healthcare needs. Dr. Wilkerson will always assess each patient's needs to determine their ideal sedation method and level.
Dental Extractions
Tooth extractions can be performed in an emergency procedure after trauma or injury, or to prevent a future concern, such as with wisdom teeth removal.
Dr. Wilkerson provides extractions for patients who are experiencing pain and discomfort or have an infection caused by a tooth that is damaged beyond repair. In some cases, a surgical extraction may be required, but simple extractions are also performed if the tooth appears above the gum line. Before any extraction, our pediatric dentist will complete a thorough exam and take x-rays to determine the ideal treatment plan.
Wisdom Tooth Removal
For teens experiencing pain in the back of the mouth, our dentist can perform an evaluation to determine a need for wisdom tooth removal. Leaving wisdom teeth untreated may result in excess pain, orthodontic concerns, and other oral health concerns. Dr. Wilkerson will help you determine the healthiest time for your child to undergo this procedure.
