Extraction is usually the last resort, recommended only after a crown, root canal, or other fix has been ruled out. An intact, accessible tooth is a simple extraction; a broken or impacted one requires surgical technique.
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. That saves a second consultation and a second round of imaging in most cases.
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.
Urgent extractions get prioritized rather than scheduled weeks out. A same-day slot is checked as soon as urgency is established on the call.
Detailed guidance on diet and activity reduces complication risk and speeds healing. Follow-up contact is available if something about recovery doesn't feel right.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.
For teeth fully visible above the gumline, removed with local anesthesia routinely.
