Dr. Yoo knows that dental emergencies can be unexpected and painful. That’s why he offers same-day care when you or a family member is suffering from dental pain, trauma or an infection.

Oral Surgery
Dr. Yoo also provides expert oral surgery when you need a tooth extraction. An extraction – or pulling a tooth – is sometimes necessary in cases of severe trauma, infection or a hopeless restorable prognosis. We strive to create a comfortable environment, especially during these uneasy situations. Ask us about our many tooth replacement options including bridges and dental implants.
Root Canal Therapy
A root canal therapy may be required if you have an infected tooth often due to large decay that communicates into the pulp or from trauma. Contrary to what many believe, a root canal therapy doesn’t have to be painful. In fact, we go to great lengths to make the procedure as pain-free and as quick as possible. A root canal therapy can actually relieve the pain from a dental infection and allows our patients to save a tooth instead of losing it to an extraction.
This treatment involves the removal of the infected pulp and contents in a tooth.
After the root canal therapy is completed, a crown is often recommended to protect the tooth from further deterioration and prevent any bacterial leakage.
