Extractions
Tooth extractions are sometimes necessary to protect your overall oral health. Whether caused by advanced gum disease, severe decay, or trauma, our team performs extractions with a focus on comfort, precision, and long-term results.
What Are Extractions?
Extractions are the removal of teeth that can no longer be saved due to damage, infection, or advanced disease. Using gentle, advanced techniques, we make the process as stress-free as possible while protecting surrounding bone and tissue for future treatment options.
If appropriate anatomical conditions exist, we can often place implants the same day as extraction, providing immediate solutions for tooth replacement.
Why It Matters
When problem teeth remain in place, they can cause pain, spread infection, or damage surrounding structures. Extractions help relieve discomfort, protect your oral health, and create a healthier foundation for future restorations such as implants.
What to Expect During Extraction
Extraction Details
Our extraction process begins with a thorough exam and imaging to plan your care. The area is carefully numbed, and we use precise, minimally invasive techniques to remove the tooth while preserving as much healthy bone as possible. Aftercare instructions are provided to promote faster healing and reduce discomfort.
