Extractions remove teeth that are damaged, decayed, or causing crowding. Whether simple or surgical, we ensure the process is gentle, safe, and designed to support your long-term oral health and comfort.
We numb the area, gently loosen the tooth, and remove it. For surgical cases, we may make a small incision. We ensure a smooth recovery with personalized aftercare and clear instructions.
Extractions remove damaged or problematic teeth that can’t be saved. They eliminate pain, prevent infection, and create space for orthodontic treatment or future restorations like implants or dentures.
Extractions
Gentle, expert removal of problem teeth.
If you have a damaged, infected, or impacted tooth, or if crowding is affecting your bite, an extraction may be recommended. It’s often the first step before orthodontics or implants.
Your dentist numbs the area, gently removes the tooth, and provides gauze and aftercare instructions. For surgical extractions, stitches may be used. Swelling and soreness are normal for a few days. Most patients recover comfortably with simple home care and medication if needed.
Tooth extractions take 20–60 minutes depending on the tooth’s location and complexity. Recovery lasts a few days, with complete healing taking 1–2 weeks. Wisdom tooth extractions may require a little more time and aftercare, especially if they’re impacted.
After a tooth extraction, expect some swelling and soreness for a few days. Stick to soft foods and avoid using straws or smoking, which can cause dry socket. Follow your dentist’s aftercare closely to heal smoothly.
You may have mild swelling, bleeding, or soreness for a few days. Use cold compresses and stick to soft foods. Follow all aftercare instructions and avoid smoking or using straws, which can slow healing.
