Extraction is usually the last resort, recommended only after a crown, root canal, or other fix has been ruled out. An intact, accessible tooth is a simple extraction; a broken or impacted one requires surgical technique.
Local anesthesia numbs the area fully before extraction, with sedation available for anxious patients or more involved cases. Following aftercare instructions closely protects the blood clot that forms in the socket, since disturbing it risks dry socket.
Not every extraction needs a replacement right away, but a gap left too long can let neighboring teeth drift and complicate future treatment. Socket preservation at the time of extraction is a small step now that keeps more options open later.
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.
A tooth causing acute pain can often be removed the day it's diagnosed. Pain and infection risk are what move a case up the queue, not how long you've been a patient.
Specific instructions protect the healing socket from the most common post-extraction problem. Follow-up contact is available if something about recovery doesn't feel right.
Whatever the specifics of your case, the specialist we route you to has handled it before.
