Extractions & Oral Surgery
Extractions & Oral Surgery
When a tooth is too damaged or crowded to save, extractions and oral surgery remove it carefully and comfortably, and help you plan the next step for your smile.
When an Extraction Is Necessary
We always try to save a natural tooth first. But when a tooth is severely decayed, broken, infected, or too crowded, removing it is sometimes the healthiest option for the rest of your mouth. Our team walks you through why an extraction is recommended before moving forward.
Planning What Comes Next
Losing a tooth doesn't have to mean living with a gap. Depending on your situation, we may talk with you about a dental bridge or dentures or a partial to restore your bite and smile once you've healed.
What to Expect
- A clear explanation of why an extraction is recommended
- Comfortable, careful treatment from our team
- Guidance on aftercare and next steps for replacing the tooth, if needed
