What Is a Tooth Extraction?

A tooth extraction is a common dental procedure where a tooth is carefully removed from its socket in the jawbone. Extractions may be simple (non-surgical) or surgical, depending on the tooth’s condition and position.
  • Simple Extraction – Performed on visible teeth using special tools to gently loosen and remove the tooth.

  • Surgical Extraction – Required for broken, impacted, or unerupted teeth and involves a small incision in the gum.

We use modern techniques and local anesthesia to make the process as quick and painless as possible.

Answers to Your Questions

Not at all. We numb the area completely before the procedure. You may feel some pressure, but not pain. Post-extraction soreness can be managed with medication.

Most patients recover in 7–10 days. Surgical extractions may take a little longer. Following aftercare instructions helps speed up healing.

Stick to soft foods like soup, yogurt, and mashed potatoes for a few days. Avoid straws, hard foods, and alcohol during healing.

Yes, in most cases. Missing teeth can affect your bite, jawbone, and smile. We’ll discuss options like bridges, dentures, or implants.

Not always, but if they’re impacted, causing pain, or crowding other teeth, removal is often recommended.

Many dental plans partially cover extractions. We’ll verify your benefits and provide a clear estimate before treatment.
