Tooth Extractions

Tooth Extractions: Gentle Care When a Tooth Needs to Go

While we always aim to preserve natural teeth, sometimes an extraction is the healthiest option for your overall smile. Whether it’s due to severe decay, infection, crowding, or a damaged tooth that can’t be repaired, our team at Southwest Family Dentistry provides gentle, compassionate tooth extractions with your comfort as our top priority.

We’ll start by walking you through the entire process, answering your questions and making sure you feel relaxed and informed. We use effective local anesthesia to numb the area completely, and we offer sedation options if you feel especially nervous. Our goal is to make the experience smooth and stress-free-from the first appointment to your recovery.

After the extraction, we’ll give you clear instructions for healing and talk about next steps, such as replacing the tooth if needed with a bridge, implant, or denture. You’ll never be left wondering what comes next-we’re here to support you every step of the way, with care that’s both professional and personal.
