Teeth Extractions

Tooth extraction is a quick outpatient procedure performed by a dentist or oral surgeon using local, general, or intravenous anesthesia. Simple extractions are used for visible teeth, while broken or impacted teeth require more involved procedures. Beyond wisdom teeth, extractions may be necessary for severely damaged teeth, excessive decay, infection, or crowding. In orthodontic cases, teeth might need removal to make room for realignment.

In a simple extraction, the dentist first numbs the area, then uses an elevator to loosen the tooth before removing it with forceps. Gauze is placed to control bleeding. Your full medical and dental history will be reviewed to ensure a safe and comfortable procedure. If you need a tooth extraction, visit us for expert care.
