Extractions

Putting Our Patients’ Comfort First

Removing natural teeth isn’t the ideal treatment strategy patients want to hear from their dentist, but an extraction may be in your best interest depending on the severity of the situation. Extractions can often be the most suitable approach to eliminating any extensive problems that threaten the rest of your healthy natural teeth and, ultimately, your overall health and well-being.

Preferred Family Dentistry understands your apprehension and the intimidating nature of a tooth extraction procedure. Rest assured, our dental team strives to alleviate your oral health issues while providing the highest degree of patient comfort.

The Tooth Extraction Procedure – What to Expect

Our dental team will provide a thorough examination of your teeth and take x-rays to determine the best approach for the extraction. The area around the affected tooth will be numbed with local anesthesia for added comfort so you can feel relaxed during the procedure. The dentist will then begin to carefully remove the damaged or decayed tooth.

Depending on the complexity, the tooth extraction procedure can take as little as a few minutes up to half an hour. After the tooth has been pulled, we’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions to mitigate discomfort and promote healing.
