What Is a Tooth Extraction?

A tooth extraction is the immediate removal of a tooth due to infection, injury, decay, or severe pain that cannot be managed conservatively. Our goal is to eliminate the source of pain, stop the spread of infection, and preserve your long-term oral health.

A tooth extraction is the urgent removal of a tooth due to severe pain, infection, or damage that can’t be treated with standard dental care. This procedure is often necessary to stop the spread of infection, relieve intense discomfort, and prevent further harm to your oral health. You may need an emergency extraction if you have a tooth with extensive decay that can’t be saved, a fractured or broken tooth causing sharp pain or bleeding, or a wisdom tooth that’s impacted or infected. Other common reasons include advanced gum disease that has loosened the tooth, an abscess with facial swelling, or sudden trauma from a fall, accident, or sports injury.

In these cases, fast intervention is essential. At Dental Made Easy, we provide same-day extractions to help you feel better quickly and avoid complications.

Types of Extractions We Perform

At Dental Made Easy, we offer two main types of tooth extractions: simple and surgical. The right procedure depends on the position of the tooth, the extent of the damage, and whether it’s fully erupted or impacted. Our experienced dentists will assess your condition with digital X-rays and recommend the safest and most effective approach.

Simple Extraction

A simple extraction is done when the tooth is fully erupted and clearly visible above the gum line. This is the most common type of removal, often used for teeth that are severely decayed, damaged beyond repair, or loose due to gum disease. The procedure is quick and straightforward, performed under local anesthesia. You may feel slight pressure, but not pain, and the entire process usually takes just a few minutes.

Surgical Extraction

A surgical extraction is more complex and required when the tooth is not easily accessible. This includes cases where the tooth has broken off at the gum line, is impacted (as is often the case with wisdom teeth), or is surrounded by dense bone. In these situations, we may need to make a small incision in the gum tissue and, in some cases, remove bone or section the tooth into smaller pieces to ensure safe removal. Surgical extractions are handled by our experienced team, and in complex cases, we may refer you to a trusted oral surgeon.

Sedation and Comfort Options

We understand that extractions can cause anxiety. That’s why we offer multiple sedation options for patients who need extra comfort, including:

  • Nitrous oxide (laughing gas)
  • Oral conscious sedation
  • IV sedation (in select cases or by referral)

No matter the type of extraction, we always prioritize your safety and comfort before, during, and after the procedure. Our goal is to ensure a smooth, pain-free experience with the fastest possible recovery.

Benefits of Tooth Extraction

  • Rapid pain relief
  • Prevents spread of infection
  • Stops swelling and inflammation
  • Protects surrounding teeth and bone
  • Allows future implant or restorative planning
  • Same-day treatment to restore your comfort

Who Needs an Emergency Extraction?

If you’re experiencing any of the symptoms below, don’t wait — you may need urgent dental care:

  • Intense toothache or throbbing pain
  • Sensitivity to hot, cold, or pressure
  • Swollen face, gums, or jaw
  • Gum bleeding that won’t stop
  • Tooth that feels loose or fractured
  • Foul taste or pus discharge (sign of infection)
  • Fever alongside dental pain

Our team will examine your tooth, take digital X-rays, and recommend the safest and most effective option. In many cases, treatment can begin the same day.

What to Expect During the Procedure

Your safety and comfort are our top priorities. Here’s what typically happens:

  1. Evaluation & Imaging
    We review your medical history, symptoms, and X-rays to plan your procedure.
  2. Anesthesia & Sedation
    We numb the area with local anesthesia. Sedation options (oral, IV, or nitrous oxide) are available upon request.
  3. Tooth Removal
    The tooth is gently loosened and removed using sterile techniques. Surgical extractions may involve incisions.
  4. Bleeding Control
    Gauze is applied, and you’re given detailed aftercare instructions.

Extraction Aftercare Instructions

To promote healing and prevent complications like dry socket:

  • Bite down on gauze for 30–60 minutes post-op
  • Avoid smoking, alcohol, spitting, or drinking through a straw for 48 hours
  • Eat soft, lukewarm foods the first 1–2 days
  • Use cold compresses for swelling (10 mins on/off)
  • Brush gently, avoiding the extraction site
  • Take all medications as prescribed
  • Call us if you notice worsening pain, swelling, or bleeding

FAQs on Tooth Extraction

No, the procedure itself is not painful. We carefully numb the area using local anesthesia to make sure you feel no sharp sensations during the extraction. While you might feel some pressure, it’s not uncomfortable. After the numbness wears off, it’s normal to experience mild soreness or swelling, which can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. If needed, we may also prescribe stronger medication for more complex cases.

Recovery depends on the type of extraction. Most patients bounce back from a simple extraction within 2–3 days and can resume their normal routines quickly. Surgical extractions may involve a longer healing time, typically around 7 to 10 days, especially if bone was removed or stitches were placed. Following your aftercare instructions closely is key to a smooth recovery.

Yes — often as soon as the next day, especially if the extraction was simple and didn’t involve sedation. We do recommend taking the rest of the day off after the procedure to allow your body to begin healing. Avoid heavy lifting, intense exercise, or strenuous tasks for at least 24 hours to reduce the risk of bleeding or complications.

Emergency tooth extractions typically range from $250 to $600, depending on the complexity of the case (simple vs surgical) and whether sedation is used. We accept most major PPO dental insurance plans, which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket cost. For uninsured patients, we offer clear pricing and flexible payment options.

Absolutely. If you’re planning to replace the extracted tooth with a dental implant, we typically recommend waiting 2–3 months for the bone and gums to heal fully. In some cases, we may offer same-day extraction and implant placement, depending on the condition of the bone and surrounding tissue. Our team will discuss the best timing and options with you during your consultation.

We believe urgent dental care should be accessible. If you don’t have insurance, we offer transparent, upfront pricing with no hidden fees. To make care more affordable, we accept CareCredit and other payment plans that allow you to pay for treatment over time. Our team is always happy to help you find a financial solution that works for you.
