Tooth Extraction

Tooth Extraction

Gentle, comfortable extractions when a tooth can't be saved

Sometimes Extraction Is Best

While we always try to save natural teeth, sometimes extraction is the best option for your oral health. Whether due to severe decay, advanced gum disease, crowding, or impacted wisdom teeth, we make the extraction process as comfortable as possible.

At American Dental Group, we use gentle techniques and effective anesthesia to ensure you feel minimal discomfort. We also discuss tooth replacement options so you know what to expect after healing.

  • Wisdom teeth removal
  • Severely decayed teeth
  • Broken or damaged teeth
  • Teeth loosened by gum disease

After Your Extraction

Rest
Take it easy for the first 24 hours. Avoid strenuous activity to allow proper healing.

Protect the Clot
Don't use straws, smoke, or rinse vigorously. This protects the blood clot that helps healing.

Manage Swelling
Apply ice packs to your cheek in 20-minute intervals to reduce swelling.

Soft Foods
Stick to soft foods for a few days. Avoid hot, spicy, or crunchy foods near the extraction site.

Follow-Up Care
Take any prescribed medications and attend follow-up appointments as scheduled.

Replacement Options

Don't leave gaps—restore your complete smile

Dental Implants

The most permanent solution. A titanium post replaces the root, topped with a natural-looking crown.

Dental Bridge

Uses crowns on adjacent teeth to support a replacement tooth. A fixed, non-removable option.

Partial Denture

A removable option that fills gaps with artificial teeth. Easy to clean and adjust.
