Tooth Extractions
Gentle tooth extractions in Aventura, FL
Sometimes a tooth has to come out. When it does, we make it as quick, calm, and predictable as we can — with clear aftercare and a plan for what comes next.
Overview
When extraction is the right call
We try hard to save teeth — but when decay, fracture, infection, or crowding makes a tooth a liability, removing it is the right move. Our goal is a clean, comfortable extraction with an honest plan for replacement if you need one.
Extractions we perform
Routine and surgical, with clear pricing.
Simple extractions
Visible teeth that can be removed without surgery.
Surgical extractions
Broken or impacted teeth that require a small incision.
Wisdom teeth
Evaluation, removal when indicated, and referral when surgical complexity warrants.
Pre-implant extractions
Atraumatic technique to preserve bone for a future implant.
Pediatric extractions
Calm, kid-friendly visits with parents present.
Bone grafting
Often added at the same visit to preserve the site for restoration.
What the appointment looks like
Predictable, with full numbing and clear steps.
Imaging and review
We take a focused X-ray and confirm the plan with you before anything else.
Full local anesthesia
Strong, profound numbing. You should feel pressure, not pain.
Removal
We use atraumatic instruments to protect surrounding bone and gums.
Aftercare
Written and verbal instructions, a follow-up call, and direct access if anything feels off.
Replacing the tooth
If you want options, we'll lay them out plainly.
Dental implant
Most natural function and longevity. Best for most healthy adults.
Fixed bridge
A solid choice when neighboring teeth already need crowns.
Partial or full denture
Cost-effective replacement for multiple teeth.
No replacement
Sometimes that's fine — like with a third molar. We'll tell you when it is.
