Always a great patient experience! Very helpful and friendly staff!! Dr Dana was great!
When a tooth cannot be saved — due to severe decay, infection, fracture, or crowding — extraction is the right call. At Old Oaks Dental, we perform extractions gently, with local anesthesia and sedation available, and always with a clear discussion of your options for replacing the tooth.
When decay has destroyed too much healthy tooth structure to predictably support a protective crown or filling restoration.
An abscess that cannot be resolved with root canal therapy, or when the patient cannot proceed with root canal due to underlying factors.
Severe periodontal disease that has destroyed the supporting bone around a tooth, leaving it with insufficient long-term stability.
Removal of a strategic permanent tooth to create necessary arch space as part of a comprehensive alignment path.
Gold standard replacement — a biocompatible titanium root placed directly into the jawbone that permanently anchors a custom crown.
Fixed replacement anchored permanently to adjacent support teeth — faster than an implant and highly durable when adjacent teeth need crowns.
Removable prosthetic appliance — our most affordable upfront option for replacing multiple missing teeth across an arch.
A specialized bone graft placed into the empty socket at the time of extraction to preserve bone volume for future implant placement.
Performed on a tooth that is fully visible above the gum line. The tooth is gently loosened within its socket and removed without incisions. Completed in minutes under local anesthesia with minimal recovery time required.
Required for teeth broken at the gum line, partially erupted, or possessing curved root structures requiring sectioning. A small tissue incision is made to safely access and lift the tooth. Recovery is slightly longer than simple paths.
Local anesthesia is administered thoroughly before any instruments are used. You will feel touch pressure but no sharp pain. Nitrous oxide sedation is available.
The tooth is gently loosened and removed. For surgical extractions, a minor tissue incision is made and the tooth may be sectioned into smaller pieces for easy removal.
Sterile gauze is placed to control initial bleeding. A socket preservation bone graft is placed if pre-planned. Detailed post-operative instructions are provided.
Replacement options are finalized before you leave — whether an implant consultation is booked or partial denture planning is initiated.
We provide comforting oral conscious or nitrous oxide dental sedation paths for anxious patients to ensure your visit remains entirely relaxed.
We reserve dedicated time in our weekly schedule for urgent emergency extraction patients — we understand tooth pain cannot wait.
We do not simply remove a tooth and send you away. Every extraction path includes a transparent discussion regarding permanent tooth replacement options.
