Extraction is usually the last resort, recommended only after a crown, root canal, or other fix has been ruled out. A tooth fully visible above the gum is typically a simple extraction; one fractured or unerupted needs a surgical approach.
Local anesthesia numbs the area fully before extraction, with sedation available for anxious patients or more involved cases. Following aftercare instructions closely protects the blood clot that forms in the socket, since disturbing it risks dry socket.
Not every extraction needs a replacement right away, but a gap left too long can let neighboring teeth drift and complicate future treatment. If an implant is planned later, a bone graft placed at the time of extraction can preserve the socket's shape for that procedure.
No separate referral needed for most surgical extractions. One office, one set of X-rays, one treatment plan, regardless of complexity.
Nitrous oxide or oral sedation is available for patients nervous about the procedure. Which option makes sense depends on your anxiety level and the complexity of the extraction.
A tooth causing acute pain can often be removed the day it's diagnosed. A same-day slot is checked as soon as urgency is established on the call.
Specific instructions protect the healing socket from the most common post-extraction problem. Follow-up contact is available if something about recovery doesn't feel right.
