Smile Center Dentistry performs Tooth Extraction with socket-preservation grafting available when future implant placement is part of your plan.
These are the four things patients actually ask about before booking Tooth Extraction, not a generic checklist we copied from another service page.
We determine upfront whether your case is a straightforward simple extraction or requires a more involved surgical approach.
If you're considering a future implant, socket-preservation grafting at the time of extraction protects bone volume.
Clear aftercare instructions and, when appropriate, a protective dressing reduce the risk of painful dry socket.
Whether it's one tooth or several in the same visit, you'll get a written estimate before the procedure begins.
Every option below is available under the same upfront-pricing standard, whichever specific service ends up fitting your case.
Straightforward extractions of visible, fully erupted teeth are performed with local anesthesia and elevator-and-forceps technique. Recovery is typically brief, with normal activity resuming within a day or two.
Teeth that are broken at the gumline, impacted, or have curved roots often require a surgical approach with sectioning. Surgical cases involve a small incision and, occasionally, minor bone removal around the tooth.
This step is optional and discussed specifically in the context of your long-term replacement plans. Ask about this specifically if you're considering an implant down the road.
Multiple extractions are quoted together, with the full plan explained before starting. We'll check in on healing progress more closely after a multi-tooth procedure.
If dry socket does occur, same-day treatment with a medicated dressing brings quick relief. Avoiding straws, smoking, and vigorous rinsing in the first days protects the healing clot.
Sutures, if placed, are typically removed or dissolve within a week to ten days. Any unusual bleeding or swelling after the first day should prompt a call.

We publish these as-is, because that's the only kind of review worth reading before booking Tooth Extraction.
“They told me upfront it would be a surgical extraction, not a simple one, and explained exactly why before starting.”
“Socket preservation grafting was explained clearly since I'm planning an implant in a few months. No pressure either way.”
“Had three teeth out in one visit and the aftercare instructions actually made sense, unlike the vague sheet I got years ago elsewhere.”
“Developed dry socket a few days later and they got me in same-day for a dressing that brought relief almost immediately.”
“Simple extraction was quick, painless once numb, and I was back to normal within a day.”
