If you have a tooth that is causing pain, infection, or crowding, you deserve a solution that feels calm, clear, and under control. At Friendly Smiles Center in Mount Laurel, tooth extraction is handled with a gentle touch, advanced technology, and a focus on your comfort from start to finish.
Dr. Robert Chase and our caring team take the time to explain what is happening inside your mouth, why an extraction is recommended, and what your options are for replacement, so you can make confident decisions about your smile and your health.
Our goal is always to save your natural teeth when possible. When a tooth extraction is the healthiest choice, we plan it carefully so you can protect your overall oral health and move forward with a strong, comfortable bite.
You can expect a supportive experience that is centered around you, including:
Many patients are surprised by how straightforward their visit feels, and how much better they feel once a problem tooth is no longer affecting their daily life.
Your visit begins with a thorough exam and digital imaging so Dr. Chase can evaluate the tooth and surrounding bone. He will review the findings with you, answer your questions, and discuss whether tooth extraction is the best option or if another treatment might be appropriate.
If extraction is recommended, we will gently numb the area and, if desired, discuss sedation to help you relax. During the procedure, you may feel some pressure, but you should not feel pain. Before you leave, we will go over simple, written instructions so you know exactly how to care for the area at home, what is normal during healing, and when to call us with concerns.
Patients come to Friendly Smiles Center for tooth extraction because they want excellent clinical care without feeling rushed or like a number. Our team is known for being warm, patient, and attentive, so you always feel heard and respected.
With a full range of services under one roof, including restorative dentistry, dental implants, and an in-house dental lab with advanced technology for same-day crowns, we can also help you plan your next steps. From your first exam through your final restoration, you have one trusted team looking out for you and your smile.
We will examine your teeth and review digital images to see if your tooth can be saved with treatments like fillings, crowns, or root canal therapy. Extraction is typically considered when a tooth is badly decayed, broken beyond repair, infected, or causing crowding or problems with other teeth.
You will be thoroughly numbed in the area of the tooth, and we offer sedation options if you feel anxious. Most patients feel pressure but not pain during the procedure. Some soreness afterward is normal, and we will review how to stay comfortable while you heal.
Some patients return to non-strenuous work the same day or the next day, while others prefer to rest at home. It depends on the difficulty of the extraction, your overall health, and the type of work you do. Dr. Chase will give you personalized guidance based on your specific situation.
After healing, you may choose to leave the space open or replace the tooth. At Friendly Smiles Center, we offer a range of restorative options, including dental implants, bridges, dentures, and other custom solutions. We will discuss the pros and cons of each so you can choose what feels right for your smile, your lifestyle, and your budget.
In some cases, it can be appropriate to remove more than one tooth at a time. We will review your medical history, oral health, and goals, then recommend a plan that is safe and comfortable for you. If multiple visits are better for your health or comfort, we will let you know and plan accordingly.
If you are experiencing dental pain, have been told you may need a tooth removed, or are simply unsure about your options, Friendly Smiles Center is here to help. We will listen to your concerns, carefully evaluate your teeth, and explain your choices so you can move forward with confidence.
