What an extraction looks like
Exam & imaging
We assess the tooth and take 3D images to plan the safest, gentlest removal.

The area is fully numbed; the tooth is removed carefully with comfort options available.
Aftercare & next steps
Clear instructions for easy healing, plus your options to replace the tooth if needed.
Extractions: common questions
Does getting a tooth pulled hurt?
The area is completely numbed, so you feel pressure but not pain. We also offer comfort options for nervous patients. Most people find it far easier than expected.
How long is wisdom-teeth recovery?
Most people feel much better in 3–4 days and fully heal in a couple of weeks. We give you clear aftercare to keep it smooth.
How do I avoid dry socket?
Follow the simple aftercare we provide — no smoking or straws for a few days, gentle rinsing. We’re a call away if anything feels off.
Should I replace the tooth?
For most teeth (not wisdom teeth), yes — replacing it protects your bite and bone. We’ll walk you through implant or bridge options.
