Not every extraction is the same — a simple extraction with forceps is a different procedure than a surgical case requiring an elevator and sectioning, and our Tooth Extraction plan tells you upfront which category yours falls into.
These are the four things patients actually ask about before booking Tooth Extraction, not a generic checklist we copied from another service page.
X-rays before the procedure show root shape and position, avoiding surprises mid-extraction.
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.
Multiple extractions are quoted together with any relevant discount for combining visits.
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.
Bone graft material placed in the socket immediately after extraction helps preserve ridge volume for future implant placement. Grafting adds minimal time to the procedure itself.
When several teeth need removal in one visit, we plan sedation and pacing carefully to keep the appointment manageable. Recovery guidance accounts for multiple healing sites at once.
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. Most patients heal without complication when aftercare instructions are followed.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
Same-day or same-week scheduling is available depending on urgency.
We determine whether your case is simple or surgical before quoting the procedure.
Multiple-tooth cases are quoted together with the full plan explained.
The procedure is performed under appropriate anesthesia, followed by clear written aftercare instructions.
These are unedited, from patients who've actually been through Tooth Extraction treatment with us in the past year.
“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.”
These are the questions Burgaw patients ask most before booking Tooth Extraction.
X-rays beforehand tell us which category your case falls into before we quote the procedure.
It's optional and worth discussing specifically if implant replacement is part of your plan.
We'll walk through the full aftercare list clearly before you leave the office.
Simple extractions typically heal within a few days; surgical extractions can take a week or more.
We'll walk through what to expect for a multi-site recovery before scheduling.
Worsening pain after day two or three can signal dry socket — call and we'll get you in the same day for treatment.
If you're unsure whether your part of Burgaw is covered, a quick call settles it faster than searching online.
We provide Tooth Extraction to Burgaw patients with clear upfront pricing whether it's one tooth or several. Socket preservation and other add-on procedures are always discussed, never assumed.
