Tooth Extractions In Owings Mills
When problematic teeth are causing you pain and discomfort, you have options. While preserving your natural teeth is always the goal, sometimes extractions are the best way to keep your smile healthy.
Why might I need an extraction?
Problematic teeth negatively impact your overall oral health. Our team prioritizes preserving your natural teeth, but sometimes an extraction is the best way to save your smile. There are various reasons for needing a tooth extracted. Wisdom teeth often cause discomfort that can be relieved through extraction, and some advanced restorative procedures, like dental implants, require the removal of unhealthy teeth. Using gentle techniques and local anesthesia, tooth extractions can be quick and painless.

Get To The Root Of The Problem
With digital x-rays, we get high-resolution images of your teeth that allow us to make more accurate diagnoses. When you’re in pain or experiencing an emergency, we can see why the tooth is reacting and if an extraction is needed.
The Extraction Process
Treatment Plan
Whether you need a single extraction or several teeth removed in preparation for further treatments, your personalized treatment plan will be tailored to your specific needs. Your dentist will review all available options with you, ensuring you’re fully informed before moving forward in the way that feels most comfortable for you.
Procedure Prep
After thoroughly cleaning and sanitizing the site, your dentist will numb the area with local anesthesia to keep your comfortable throughout the process.
Extraction & Healing
The extraction itself typically takes just a few minutes. Once the tooth is removed, your dentist will clean the area and, if needed, suture the extraction site. Recovery usually lasts 1-2 weeks, and you’ll be provided with detailed aftercare instructions for a smooth, speedy healing process.
