Tooth extractions involve the removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. While our goal is to preserve your natural teeth, there are instances when extraction becomes necessary to protect your oral health. Our experienced dentists will carefully assess your condition and recommend tooth removal only when other restorative options, such as fillings, crowns or root canals, are not viable.

There are several reasons why a tooth extraction may be recommended. Severe tooth decay that compromises the tooth’s structure or a deep infection that cannot be treated effectively may require removal. Impacted wisdom teeth, which can cause pain and crowding, are another common reason for extraction. Additionally, tooth removal might be necessary as part of an orthodontic treatment plan to create space for proper alignment.

Our dentists and team are dedicated to ensuring that your extraction is as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Before the procedure, we will discuss your options for local anesthesia or sedation to minimize discomfort and help you feel at ease. The extraction itself is performed with precision and care, followed by detailed post-procedure instructions to promote a smooth recovery.

After the extraction, it is important to consider replacement options to restore the functionality and appearance of your smile. During your consultation, we will explore solutions such as dental implants, bridges or dentures, and help you choose the best option for your needs.
