Whether it's one tooth or several, our Tooth Extraction approach includes clear aftercare instructions so healing goes smoothly, not just a quick procedure and a rushed goodbye.
Every Smile Center Dentistry office offering Tooth Extraction is held to the same four standards, verified before the office ever joins our network.
X-rays before the procedure show root shape and position, avoiding surprises mid-extraction.
We'll discuss whether grafting makes sense for your specific situation, not push it as a default add-on.
We walk through exactly what to avoid in the first 24 to 72 hours to protect the healing clot.
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.
Most simple extractions take only a few minutes once numbing has fully taken effect. We'll review aftercare instructions clearly before you leave.
We assess root shape and position via X-ray before deciding whether surgical technique is needed. Recovery timelines are typically longer than for a simple extraction.
This step is optional and discussed specifically in the context of your long-term replacement plans. Grafting adds minimal time to the procedure itself.
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.
Following aftercare instructions closely is the biggest factor in avoiding dry socket, and we walk through it clearly before you leave. Call immediately if pain worsens rather than improves after day two or three.
We check healing progress at a follow-up visit, especially after surgical or multiple extractions. Any unusual bleeding or swelling after the first day should prompt a call.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
Tell us which tooth and any symptoms, and we'll schedule an X-ray and assessment.
Root shape and position guide the approach and anesthesia plan.
Multiple-tooth cases are quoted together with the full plan explained.
We're available by phone if anything feels off during the healing period.
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.”
Straight answers to what people actually want to know before committing to Tooth Extraction.
A simple extraction removes a visible, erupted tooth with forceps; a surgical extraction involves an incision, often for impacted or broken teeth.
If you're thinking about a future implant, grafting at extraction time helps preserve bone volume for later.
We'll walk through the full aftercare list clearly before you leave the office.
Multiple extractions in one visit generally mean a slightly longer recovery period.
Yes, we plan pacing and anesthesia carefully for multi-tooth cases and quote them together upfront.
Worsening pain after day two or three can signal dry socket — call and we'll get you in the same day for treatment.
We can usually confirm same-week availability for Tooth Extraction before you even finish describing your situation.
We provide Tooth Extraction to Mapleton patients with clear upfront pricing whether it's one tooth or several. Socket preservation and other add-on procedures are always discussed, never assumed.
