Is Tooth Extraction Necessary?

Tooth extraction may be required for several reasons, including:

  • Baby teeth that don’t fall out on their own
  • Teeth removal for orthodontic treatment
  • Tooth pain or infection that cannot be treated otherwise
  • Severely damaged or fractured teeth

However, extraction is not always the only solution. If you’re dealing with tooth pain, there may be options to relieve it and preserve your tooth, especially if the issue is caught early.

Let us know if you’re experiencing:

  • Severe toothache
  • Pain when chewing or applying pressure
  • Jaw discomfort or tightness
  • Swollen gums around specific teeth
  • Signs of gum disease, like bleeding, bad smell, or discoloration

The Treatment Plan

A tooth extraction is typically performed by a dentist or oral surgeon in a single office visit. Here’s an overview of the process, from assessment to recovery:

Looking for Solutions

Before proceeding with an extraction, our dentists will carefully evaluate your symptoms and discuss treatment options to determine the best approach for your dental health.

The Removal Process

Depending on the situation, a local anesthetic will be applied to numb the area around the tooth. Our oral surgeons use a minimally invasive method to ensure the tooth is removed gently. Your comfort and recovery are our top priorities.

Feeling Better

After your procedure, you will be provided with detailed aftercare instructions, including guidance on how to care for your mouth during the healing process, what to expect during recovery, and tips for managing any complications that may arise. If you have any further questions or concerns, we are more than happy to schedule a follow-up appointment to ensure your recovery is progressing smoothly.

Cost of a Dental Extraction

The cost of dental extractions can vary significantly. With typical insurance coverage, the out-of-pocket cost for an extraction generally ranges from $100 to $200+, but we can provide an accurate quote to submit to your insurance provider for clarification. If you don’t have insurance, the cost for a dental extraction usually falls between $250 and $600+ per tooth. The exact cost will depend on several factors.

It’s important to note that no dental practice can offer an accurate quote over the phone, as each treatment plan needs to be customized based on your specific needs, which can only be determined after an oral exam. There are two main categories of extractions that may give you a better understanding of the potential costs:

  • Simple Tooth Extraction: This is performed on teeth that are easily visible in the mouth. A general dentist can perform this procedure using local anesthesia, and it typically comes at a lower cost, especially when the extraction is uncomplicated.
  • Surgical Tooth Extraction: This is a more complex procedure involving the removal of a tooth that is not easily accessible, either because it hasn’t fully erupted or has broken off at the gum line. Surgical extractions require careful planning, expertise, and precision, making them more expensive.

As every case is unique, it’s essential to consult with a dentist who can assess your situation, discuss available options, and provide a more accurate cost estimate tailored to your needs.

Your consultation will include an examination of everything from your teeth, gums and soft tissues to the shape and condition of your bite. Generally, we want to see how your whole mouth looks and functions. Before we plan your treatment we want to know everything about the health and aesthetic of your smile, and, most importantly, what you want to achieve so we can help you get there.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wisdom teeth removal is only necessary if they become impacted or cause issues with your jaw or other teeth. It’s not always required unless complications arise.

Thanks to advanced dental technology, tooth extractions are nearly pain-free. While some discomfort is normal, we will provide thorough aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth and comfortable recovery.

You can start eating about one hour after your procedure, once the gauze is removed. Stick to soft foods for the first 24 hours, and avoid hot foods and using straws for several hours.

We will give you specific aftercare instructions, but generally, to aid recovery and minimize complications, avoid spitting, mouth rinsing, smoking, and using a straw for the first 24 hours. Don’t touch the extraction site, and avoid hot foods, aspirin, and strenuous activity.

For a simple extraction, recovery usually takes 7 to 10 days. More complex extractions, like wisdom teeth removal, may require up to two weeks for full recovery. You can expect minimal discomfort during the healing process.

A typical tooth extraction takes about 45 minutes or less, barring any complications.

An extremely satisfying visit here at Disera Dental Clinic. Hands down one of the best treatments that have I ever received. The entire staff is very welcoming and always made me feel like family. I checked in, watched some TV and then I was shortly seen by Dr. Ali.The equipment and gadgets they use all looked high tech and brand new. You even get to watch a movie or a show of your choice while Dr. Ali's hands are laying down some magic. The entire clinic is so clean and modern. The most important thing I have to say, is that Dr. Ali is one of the most exemplary healthcare providers that I have had the pleasure of experiencing. Dr. Ali has very light and skillful hands which provides the most comfortable experience no matter what type of procedure I got done. I got my cavities filled, deep cleaning and in-office whitening. Dr. Ali makes sure to ask if I am satisfied with the results before we conclude every visit. He will make sure you get the results you want no matter how long it will take. It is his attention to details, his concern with results, and patience are what attracted me to come back. Overall, the service is excellent and every visit is worth it. Plus they give you a goody bag with travel size toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss, and mouth wash. Also, parking is never an issue.
