Protect Your Healthy Mouth With an Extraction

When a dental problem escalates, an extraction is often the only way to protect your oral health. Rest assured, Dr. Lee only recommends this procedure if absolutely necessary. In our practice, we prioritize other treatments, such as using dental crowns to restore your tooth, or performing root canals to stop an infection.

However, sometimes it's necessary to remove a tooth. We can also remove your wisdom teeth if they are adversely impacting other teeth. Regardless of the reason for the removal, we will go the extra mile to make sure you are comfortable. You will appreciate:

  • Proper Planning - Your dentist uses advanced technology like digital x-rays, intraoral cameras, and his in-office photo studio to fully examine your mouth and determine whether extraction is truly necessary. If so, we utilize modern techniques to extract teeth while ensuring your comfort.
  • Relaxing Procedure - We will numb your mouth during your treatment, so you don't feel a thing. You can also opt for sedation through laughing gas to feel at ease. It won't have any lingering effects, so you can easily drive home.
  • Extensive Experience - Our team has clinical experience, so you can expect top-quality results from your procedure. We will also take the time to answer any questions you may have about your extraction.

Once your tooth has been removed, there will be a time for healing. If necessary, Dr. Lee will discuss your options to replace the tooth.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tooth Removal / Extractions

How much does a tooth removal cost?
It is difficult to put a price on this service, since each patient is different with unique needs. Some factors that come into play include the location of the tooth, its condition, and how many teeth need to be removed. We'll be happy to examine your mouth when you come in for your initial consultation and X-rays. Then we can give you a good idea of the cost for your procedure.
Does tooth removal hurt?
Rest assured that our compassionate team will do all we can to give you a comfortable tooth extraction. We will make sure the area we're working on is completely numb before we begin, plus you can choose to receive laughing gas to keep you relaxed. We'll also answer all your questions to help set your mind at ease. Your comfort is one of our top priorities.
When is tooth removal necessary?
We'll always try to save your natural tooth whenever possible. However, if a tooth is too badly diseased or damaged to restore, we'll have no option but to remove it. Leaving it in place could cause damage to your healthy teeth and gums and create more problems for you down the road.
