Extraction is usually the last resort, recommended only after a crown, root canal, or other fix has been ruled out. An intact, accessible tooth is a simple extraction; a broken or impacted one requires surgical technique.
Most extractions are done comfortably under local anesthesia alone, with sedation offered when needed. Aftercare focuses on protecting that healing clot, the single most common source of post-extraction complications.
Delaying a decision on replacement isn't necessarily a problem, though your provider will flag if drift risk makes it worth doing sooner. If an implant is planned later, a bone graft placed at the time of extraction can preserve the socket's shape for that procedure.
No separate referral needed for most surgical extractions. That saves a second consultation and a second round of imaging in most cases.
Comfort options beyond local anesthesia exist for those who need them. Which option makes sense depends on your anxiety level and the complexity of the extraction.
Urgent extractions get prioritized rather than scheduled weeks out. A same-day slot is checked as soon as urgency is established on the call.
Specific instructions protect the healing socket from the most common post-extraction problem. Follow-up contact is available if something about recovery doesn't feel right.
Whatever the specifics of your case, the specialist we route you to has handled it before.
