Tooth Extraction
Tooth Extraction is a dental procedure performed by our experienced dentists to remove a tooth from its socket in the jawbone.
While tooth extraction is typically a last resort, it is sometimes necessary due to various dental issues, including severe decay, infection, overcrowding, or trauma.
Our dental professionals prioritize patient comfort and safety during the extraction process, providing expert care to address your specific dental needs.
Tooth extraction is a relatively quick outpatient procedure with either local anesthesia or IV sedation. Teeth that are broken, below the surface, or impacted require a more involved procedure.
- Time Duration: 60 - 180 minutes depending on your case
Key Components and Benefits:
-
Pain Relief: Tooth extraction can alleviate severe tooth pain caused by extensive decay, infection, or injury. Removing the affected tooth can provide immediate relief.
-
Prevention of Infection Spread: Extracting a severely infected tooth helps prevent the spread of infection to neighboring teeth and surrounding tissues, reducing the risk of more extensive oral health issues.
-
Orthodontic Treatment: Tooth extraction may be necessary in orthodontic cases to create space for proper teeth alignment and bite correction.
-
Wisdom Teeth Management: Extraction of impacted or problematic wisdom teeth (third molars) is a common dental procedure, often performed to prevent pain, infection, and dental misalignment.
-
Preparation for Dentures or Implants: In cases of advanced tooth loss, extraction may be necessary to make room for dental prosthetics like dentures or dental implants.
-
Preservation of Oral Health: Tooth extraction can help preserve overall oral health by eliminating severely damaged or non-functional teeth that could negatively impact adjacent teeth.
-
Customized Treatment: Each tooth extraction is tailored to the specific needs of the patient and tooth, ensuring a thorough and safe procedure.

Anesthesia Options: Our dental professionals offer various anesthesia options, including local anesthesia and sedation, to ensure patient comfort and minimize anxiety during the procedure.

-
Minimal Disruption: Tooth extraction is typically a relatively quick procedure, allowing patients to return to their normal activities within a short period.

Consultation and Alternatives: Before extracting a tooth, our dental professionals will thoroughly evaluate your oral health and discuss all possible treatment options, including alternatives to extraction, to help you make an informed decision.
