Many extraction cases can be completed in our Winfield office, avoiding the need to travel out of town.
Dr. Watkins priority is always to try and save a tooth before considering an extraction. However, sometimes a tooth cannot be saved, and an extraction (removal of the tooth) is the only viable option.
Dr. Watkins maintains privileges at William Newton Memorial Hospital in Winfield, Kansas. This allows certain dental cases to be completed under general anesthesia. Some examples of cases that benefit from this treatment option include children that need several restorations completed at once, and fearful patients in need of wisdom teeth extractions.
Our office will enjoy some time away to be with families Dec 24th and returning back to our dental families on Jan 4th.
