A tooth extraction involves the removal of a tooth from its socket. While preserving natural teeth is our goal, extractions are sometimes necessary to protect your overall oral health.
Tooth extractions may be required for:
When a tooth is beyond repair with a filling or crown.
To prevent the spread of infection from an abscessed tooth.
Removal of wisdom teeth that are trapped or causing pain.
Preparing the mouth for orthodontic treatment.
Removing teeth that have become loose due to advanced gum disease.
We examine your tooth and take X-rays to plan the procedure.
Local anesthesia ensures the area is numb, and sedation is available if needed.
The tooth is gently removed, either through a simple or surgical extraction.
Guidance is provided to promote healing and manage discomfort.
Whenever possible, we explore alternatives like root canals or crowns to save your tooth. Extraction is only recommended when other treatments are not viable.
No, local anesthesia ensures a pain-free procedure, though mild discomfort may occur during recovery.
Most patients recover within 7–10 days, depending on the complexity of the extraction.
Simple extraction removes visible teeth, while surgical extraction involves removing impacted or broken teeth.
Stick to soft foods like soup, yogurt, and mashed potatoes for the first few days.
Many patients can resume work the next day, depending on the procedure and comfort level.
Avoid smoking, using straws, or vigorous rinsing to prevent dislodging the blood clot.
No, wisdom teeth are only removed if they’re impacted, infected, or causing issues.
Many dental plans cover extractions. Contact us to verify your benefits.
You may drive after local anesthesia but will need someone to drive if sedation is used.
Persistent pain, infection, or overcrowding often indicate the need for an extraction.
