Honestly, the was the best dental service I’ve experienced. Dr. V was gentle and kind. The assistant Destiny was attentive. I came because I was having some sensitivity. Dr. V did filling and it was painless. The staff really does a great job of making you feel important and treats you with such kindness. They follow up with you after procedures and really takes care of you.

Do I Need To Have My Tooth Pulled?

Despite your best efforts, teeth sometimes need to be removed to protect your health. When we've discussed all other possibilities, and you've decided on extraction, we'll take every step to help you. Your well-being always takes priority in any treatment decision. Some patients prefer sedation to help with oral surgery, and we can review these options in your treatment plan. You can trust we take every measure to make sure even minor surgical procedures are as comfortable as possible.

Reasons For Tooth Extraction

Your tooth is severely decayed and can’t be repaired with a filling, crown, or other restoration
Your tooth is too severely damaged to repair
Your tooth doesn’t respond to root canal treatment
Your tooth is impacted (in the case of wisdom teeth) and must be removed to maintain the health of your surrounding teeth
Your mouth is too small to accommodate your incoming wisdom teeth, or you have too many adult teeth for your jaw to comfortably accommodate

Do I Need To Replace My Missing Tooth?

While our immediate concern is the short-term management of your care, we will also discuss your long-term plans for replacing missing teeth. Leaving a space is always an option, but spaces in your smile can create appearance and function challenges that are important to consider. Teeth slowly shift or migrate into open spaces, and minimizing the effects of an unbalanced bite can prevent issues later in life.

Although our primary goal is to help your teeth stay healthy and functional, an extraction is sometimes the best way to preserve the overall health of your mouth. Since teeth help nourish our bodies and support our confidence, we will help you find a game plan that fits your short and long-term goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you remove wisdom teeth?

Yes, we do! Depending on your treatment needs, your dentist may recommend removing one tooth or all four at once.

Do tooth extractions hurt?

The procedure itself generally doesn’t hurt. Your dentist will administer a local anesthetic to numb your tooth and help you feel relaxed and comfortable during your procedure.

Are tooth extractions covered by insurance?

Yes, extractions are generally covered in part or full by dental insurance.

How long does it take to pull a tooth?

It can take 20-40 minutes to have a single tooth extracted. If you need more than one tooth removed, or your dentist has trouble removing the tooth, it can take an hour or more.
