Tooth extractions
When a tooth can’t be restored safely, removal is sometimes the most predictable way to protect your long-term oral health. It’s completely normal to feel uncertain about the process, which is why we slow things down, walk you through the reason behind the recommendation, and explain every step in language that feels simple and manageable. Most patients are surprised by how quick and straightforward the appointment feels once they know what to expect.
What your appointment looks like
Your visit typically includes:
- A review of digital X-rays and the condition of the tooth
- A clear explanation of why extraction is recommended
- Local anesthesia to keep the area completely numb
- A gentle, controlled procedure focused on preserving as much healthy bone and tissue as possible
We check in frequently to make sure you remain comfortable from start to finish.
Aftercare you can count on
Before you leave, we review easy, practical aftercare so you feel confident taking care of the area at home. You’ll know:
- What is normal during healing
- How to manage minor discomfort
- What foods to choose for the first day or two
- When to reach out if something doesn’t feel right
We want you to feel supported every step of the way — not just in the chair.
