Extraction is usually the last option considered, recommended only after a dentist has ruled out a crown, root canal, or other restorative fix. Simple extractions handle teeth fully visible above the gumline, while surgical extractions are needed when a tooth is broken at the gumline or hasn't fully erupted.
Most extractions are done comfortably under local anesthesia alone, though sedation is offered when the case is more complex. Aftercare instructions focus on protecting the blood clot that forms in the socket, since disturbing it can lead to a painful complication called dry socket.
Delaying a decision on replacement isn't necessarily a problem, though your provider will flag if drift risk makes it worth doing sooner. Socket preservation at the time of extraction is a small step now that keeps more options open later.
No separate referral needed for more complex surgical extractions in most cases.
Nitrous oxide or oral sedation is available for patients nervous about the procedure.
A tooth causing acute pain or infection can often be removed the same day it's diagnosed.
You leave with specific instructions on diet, rinsing, and activity to protect the healing socket.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.
For teeth fully visible above the gumline, removed with local anesthesia in a routine visit.
Handles more complicated cases where the tooth can't simply be lifted out whole.

Local anesthesia numbs the area fully before extraction, so the procedure itself shouldn't hurt.

Dry socket happens when the healing blood clot dislodges too early — avoiding straws and smoking helps prevent it.
Replacement depends on the tooth's location and your bite; some gaps matter more functionally than others.
