What Is a Dental Extraction?

A dental extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. It is typically recommended when a tooth is too damaged to be restored, infected, or causing crowding or other complications. Extractions may be simple (for visible teeth) or surgical (for impacted or broken teeth).

Benefits of Dental Extractions

Relieves Pain and Infection

Severely decayed or infected teeth can cause constant discomfort. Removing the affected tooth can provide immediate relief and prevent the spread of infection.

Prevents Further Oral Health Issues

Extracting problematic teeth helps protect surrounding teeth and gums, especially in cases of severe decay, abscesses, or gum disease.

Fast Recovery and Long-Term Relief

Modern techniques and aftercare ensure a smooth healing process and long-term benefits for your oral health.

Supports Orthodontic or Restorative Treatment

In some cases, extractions are necessary to make space for orthodontic treatment or to prepare for dentures, implants, or bridges.

The Dental Extraction Process

At Fifth St Dental, we make the extraction process as smooth and stress-free as possible. With careful planning, gentle techniques, and clear communication, we ensure your comfort from start to finish. Here’s what you can expect during your procedure.

01

Consultation and Examination

We begin with a detailed dental exam, including X-rays, to evaluate the tooth’s condition and plan the best approach for removal.

02

Local Anesthesia

To keep you comfortable, the area is completely numbed with local anesthesia. We also offer sedation options if you’re feeling anxious.

03

Tooth Removal

In a simple extraction, the tooth is gently loosened and lifted from the socket. For surgical extractions (such as impacted wisdom teeth), a small incision may be made to access the tooth.

04

Post-Extraction Care

We place gauze to control bleeding and provide personalized aftercare instructions to support proper healing and minimize discomfort.

Who Needs a Tooth Extraction?

You may be a suitable candidate for dental extraction if you have:

Infection or Abscess

If a tooth infection has spread to the root or surrounding bone and can’t be treated with a root canal, extraction may be required to protect your oral health.

Orthodontic or Space-Related Needs

Some teeth may be removed to make room for orthodontic treatment or to properly fit dentures, bridges, or dental implants.

Severely Damaged or Decayed Teeth

When a tooth is beyond repair due to deep decay or trauma, extraction is often the best way to prevent infection and relieve pain.

Impacted Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth that are stuck beneath the gums or growing at an angle can cause pain, swelling, and crowding—making extraction necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions
Still have a question?
Get in Touch
Is a dental extraction painful?

No. We use local anesthesia to numb the area completely, and offer sedation options for anxious patients. Most people feel pressure, not pain, during the procedure.

Most patients recover within a few days. Full healing of the gum may take 1–2 weeks, depending on the type of extraction and individual healing.

Yes, but stick to soft foods for the first 24–48 hours and avoid chewing on the extraction site. Follow our aftercare instructions closely to support healing.

We’ll discuss tooth replacement options such as implants, bridges, or dentures if needed, to help restore function and appearance.
