Tooth Extractions Will Go Well With Technology & Sedation
Dr. Barfield can extract most teeth, including wisdom teeth. He uses technology like our digital X-rays and intraoral camera to plan your procedure. If these tools reveal potential problems that can be better handled by another doctor, we’ll help you arrange treatment with a top specialist right in our office. Unlike many dentists, we offer three kinds of sedation, since we want you to be able to feel the right level of relaxation during your surgical procedure. You can choose from:
