Your Restorative Care Journey

How It Works

We begin with a thorough examination to determine if extraction is necessary. If so, we use local anesthesia to numb the area before carefully removing the tooth while preserving surrounding tissues.

Benefits

While keeping your natural teeth is preferable, extractions can eliminate pain from damaged teeth, prevent infection spread, create space for orthodontic treatment, and remove wisdom teeth that could cause future problems.

Who is it for

Tooth extractions are appropriate for patients with severely damaged teeth, impacted wisdom teeth, significant crowding, or infections that cannot be treated with other methods.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are tooth extractions painful?

With proper anesthesia, you should feel pressure but not pain during the extraction. We provide appropriate pain management for your comfort during and after the procedure.

How long is the recovery period?

Most patients can resume normal activities within 48-72 hours. Complete healing of the socket typically takes 1-2 weeks.

What can I eat after a tooth extraction?

Stick to soft foods and liquids for the first 24-48 hours. Gradually introduce more solid foods as healing progresses and comfort allows.

Will I need to replace the extracted tooth?

If the extracted tooth is not a wisdom tooth, we recommend discussing replacement options such as implants, bridges, or partial dentures to maintain proper function and prevent shifting of remaining teeth.

Can I drive myself home after a tooth extraction?

If you receive only local anesthesia, you can typically drive yourself home. If sedation is used, you’ll need someone to drive you.
