What Is a Tooth Extraction?
While our goal is always to save your natural tooth, sometimes it’s not possible. If a tooth has extensive decay or infection, a filling or root canal may not be an option. In such cases, we may recommend extracting the tooth to get you out of pain and preserve your oral health.
Why Do I Need a Tooth Extraction?
- Tooth is severely decayed
- Infected or abscessed tooth
- Deep cracks or fractures in the tooth
- A tooth causing overcrowding
- Wisdom teeth coming in painfully
Does it hurt?
Most extractions are fast and painless. Your dentist will make sure the area surrounding your tooth is fully numb. You may feel some pressure as it’s removed, but it won’t be painful. If you experience dental anxiety, please tell us! We offer many dental sedation options to keep you relaxed.

Frequently Asked Questions about Tooth Extractions
Can I eat and drink after my extraction?
Yes, but be careful what you eat. Choose soft foods for 24 hours following your procedure. Avoid foods that are chewy, sharp, crunchy, or sticky until the area is healed.
How long is the extraction recovery?
Recovery can take 48-72 hours.
Can I get a same-day tooth extraction?
Absolutely. We offer a $25 emergency exam for urgent dental situations.
Do you remove wisdom teeth?
Yes! We remove wisdom teeth from patients of all ages.
Do I have to get my wisdom teeth removed?
During your wisdom tooth consultation, we’ll take a 3D scan that will tell us whether or not your incoming wisdom teeth will impact your other teeth. You may not need to have them removed if they are coming in without issues.
My tooth has been removed. Now what?
Studies show that missing teeth are linked to serious health issues such as gum disease, tooth decay, and teeth misalignment. Once your tooth is extracted, we’ll discuss your replacement options, including:
Some common choices for replacement include:
- Dental Implants – function just like your natural tooth and last for decades.
- Dental Bridges – false teeth that connect to your natural teeth and bridge the gap.
- Dentures – affordable, removable appliances that can replace one or multiple teeth.
- Implant-Supported Dentures – a hybrid of implants and dentures that can replace many teeth at once with as few as four implants.
