Extraction is usually the last option considered, recommended only after a dentist has ruled out a crown, root canal, or other restorative fix. Simple extractions handle teeth fully visible above the gumline, while surgical extractions are needed when a tooth is broken at the gumline or hasn't fully erupted.
Most extractions are done comfortably under local anesthesia alone, though sedation is offered when the case is more complex. Aftercare instructions focus on protecting the blood clot that forms in the socket, since disturbing it can lead to a painful complication called dry socket.
Delaying a decision on replacement isn't necessarily a problem, though your provider will flag if drift risk makes it worth doing sooner. Socket preservation at the time of extraction is a small step now that keeps more options open later.
No separate referral needed for more complex surgical extractions in most cases.
Comfort options beyond local anesthesia are offered for patients who need them.
Urgent extractions are prioritized rather than scheduled weeks out.
Detailed aftercare guidance reduces the risk of dry socket and speeds healing.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.
The most common extraction type, typically quick with straightforward recovery.
For teeth broken at the gumline or not fully erupted, requiring a small incision to access the tooth.
Removes a tooth too decayed to support a filling or crown, stopping the decay from spreading further.
Often paired with a broader periodontal treatment plan for remaining teeth.
Removes specific teeth to create space needed before braces or aligner treatment begins.
Bone graft material placed in the socket preserves jawbone volume for a future implant.

"They walked me through the cost and the procedure before I agreed to anything. Appreciated that."

You may feel pressure during the procedure, but not pain, thanks to the anesthesia.
Simple extractions typically heal within a week; surgical extractions may take a bit longer.
Dry socket happens when the healing blood clot dislodges too early — avoiding straws and smoking helps prevent it.
Not always, but leaving a gap too long can let neighboring teeth shift — your provider will discuss options.
Urgent cases involving pain or infection are often accommodated same-day rather than scheduled out.
