We always aim to save natural teeth, but sometimes extraction is the healthiest choice.
Our team makes the process efficient and compassionate, helping you plan the next steps for replacement or recovery.
Reasons an extraction may be recommended
- Severe decay or fractures that cannot be repaired.
- Problematic wisdom teeth causing crowding or infection.
- Advanced periodontal disease leading to loose teeth.
- Preparing for orthodontics or full-arch dentures.
Your comfort during the procedure
We thoroughly numb the area and offer additional sedation options when needed. You will feel pressure but not pain as the tooth is gently removed.
Aftercare essentials
- Bite on gauze to control bleeding and switch to a fresh piece as directed.
- Avoid straws, smoking, and vigorous rinsing for the first 24 hours.
- Stick to soft foods and keep the site clean with gentle saltwater rinses.
- Call our team if you experience intense pain or prolonged bleeding.
We discuss replacement options such as implants, bridges, or dentures before treatment so you feel ready for your new smile.
Our team is available to answer questions in English and Spanish throughout your recovery.
