Tooth extractions can sound intimidating, but today’s techniques make the process smooth, efficient, and virtually painless. Our team in Cinnaminson uses detailed digital imaging and advanced planning tools to make each extraction as safe and precise as possible.

Before recommending removal, we carefully evaluate your tooth to see if it can be saved with a filling, crown, or root canal. If extraction is the best choice, we take every step to ensure your experience is gentle and stress-free.

• We begin with digital X-rays or 3D scans to map the tooth’s roots and structure.
• Local anesthesia is used to keep you completely numb and comfortable.
• Our precise techniques help minimize trauma to surrounding tissues.
• After your procedure, you’ll get step-by-step aftercare instructions and healing support.

We’ll be available to answer any questions you have before, during, and after your visit.

When Tooth Extractions Are Needed

There are a variety of reasons you might need a tooth removed, including:

• Severe Decay or Trauma – When a tooth is beyond repair, extraction can stop infection and pain from spreading.
• Advanced Gum Disease – Teeth loosened by periodontal disease may need to be removed to prevent further damage.
• Wisdom Teeth Complications – Impacted or misaligned third molars often need to be taken out to protect nearby teeth and prevent pain or infections.
• Orthodontic Treatment – In some cases, extractions create the space needed for proper alignment during braces or Invisalign treatment.
• Cracked or Broken Teeth – Teeth with fractures below the gumline often cannot be saved and require removal to preserve your oral health.
• Pre-Denture Planning – Sometimes teeth need to be removed to prepare your mouth for partial or full dentures.
• Medical Risk Factors – If a tooth is infected and you have a compromised immune system, removing it may prevent complications.

Tooth Replacement Options After Extraction

A missing tooth doesn’t have to mean a missing smile. Once your mouth heals, we’ll help you choose from several tooth replacement options, including:

• Dental Implants – Long-lasting and natural-looking replacements that function just like real teeth.
• Bridges – A fixed option that replaces one or more teeth in a row.
• Full or Partial Dentures – Removable options to bring back comfort, function, and appearance.

We’ll walk you through each option and create a custom plan that fits your lifestyle and budget.
