Gentle Removal
Comfortable Tooth Extractions
When a tooth can’t be saved, we remove it as gently and painlessly as possible — and help you plan the right replacement so your smile stays whole.
Details
When an Extraction Is the Right Choice
We always try to save your natural teeth first. But sometimes a tooth is too damaged, decayed or infected to repair, or it’s causing problems for the teeth around it. In those cases, a gentle extraction is the healthiest path forward.
The area is thoroughly numbed, so you feel pressure but not pain. We’ll give you simple aftercare instructions to heal comfortably and avoid complications like dry socket.
Replacing an Extracted Tooth
Leaving a gap can cause neighboring teeth to shift and the jawbone to shrink over time. Before your extraction, we’ll talk through replacement options — a dental implant, bridge or denture — so you have a clear plan. When appropriate, we can even place immediate dentures the same day.
Comfortable, Well-Planned Care
- Thorough numbing for a painless visit
- Clear aftercare to heal smoothly
- A replacement plan before you leave
- Same-day denture options when appropriate

Does getting a tooth pulled hurt?
During the extraction you’ll feel pressure but not sharp pain, thanks to local anesthesia. Afterward, mild soreness and swelling are normal for a few days and are easily managed. We’ll guide you through simple aftercare.
Can you replace the tooth the same day?
In many cases, yes — especially for dentures, where we can place an immediate denture right after extractions. For implants and bridges, we’ll map out the timeline so you always know what to expect.
