General Extractions & Wisdom Tooth Removal in Orangeville

What is a Tooth Extraction?

A tooth extraction is when a tooth is removed from its socket in the jaw bone. At Fifth Avenue Dental, our dentists only recommend extractions when a less invasive treatment won’t be effective, or when keeping the tooth could harm your overall oral health and wellbeing.

Some common reasons for tooth removal include severe damage, infections, or troublesome wisdom teeth. In some cases, extractions are also done to make room for other dental treatments, such as dental implants.

If you are feeling anxious heading into your tooth removal, our dentists in Orangeville offer a variety of dental sedation options to help keep you calm and minimize the amount of discomfort you may feel during the procedure.

After your extraction, your dentist will go through post-operative care with you to ensure you heal as quickly as possible. Our team will also follow up with a call the next day to ensure you are feeling well.
