Professional Tooth Extraction Services

At Medicare Dental Clinic, we provide safe, painless tooth extraction procedures using the latest techniques and equipment to ensure your comfort and optimal healing.

Tooth extraction is sometimes necessary when a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, or causing problems for your oral health. Our experienced oral surgeons use advanced techniques and modern anesthesia to ensure the procedure is as comfortable as possible.

We understand that the thought of tooth extraction can be concerning, which is why we take every measure to minimize discomfort and provide comprehensive aftercare instructions for optimal healing.

When is Tooth Extraction Necessary?

Common Reasons for Extraction

  • Severe tooth decay

    When decay has damaged the tooth beyond repair

  • Advanced gum disease

    When periodontal disease has loosened the tooth

  • Tooth trauma or injury

    Fractures or damage from accidents

  • Overcrowding

    For orthodontic treatment preparation

  • Impacted wisdom teeth

    When there's insufficient space for eruption

  • Failed root canal treatment

    When endodontic treatment is unsuccessful

Types of Extractions

Surgical Extraction

For teeth that are broken at the gum line or haven't erupted. May require a small incision in the gum.
