Extraction is usually the last resort, recommended only after a crown, root canal, or other fix has been ruled out. A tooth fully visible above the gum is typically a simple extraction; one fractured or unerupted needs a surgical approach.
Local anesthesia numbs the area fully before extraction, with sedation available for anxious patients or more involved cases. Aftercare focuses on protecting that healing clot, the single most common source of post-extraction complications.
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. You leave with written instructions, not just a verbal rundown you might forget by the time you're home.
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.

Addresses teeth beyond restorative repair, with replacement options discussed alongside.
Often paired with a broader periodontal treatment plan for the remaining teeth.
A planning step some orthodontic cases require before alignment can proceed.
Bone graft material placed in the socket preserves jaw volume for a later implant.
