Thinking ahead to tooth replacement
If you are losing a tooth you may want to replace with an implant, tell us before the extraction. A graft placed at the same visit can preserve bone and simplify your implant later.

Oral Surgery & Extractions FAQs
How long is recovery after an extraction?
Most people feel better in two to three days; full healing takes a few weeks.
Should I remove my wisdom teeth?
Not always. We remove them when they are impacted, decayed, or causing problems.
Can I be asleep?
We offer sedation options so you can relax deeply during treatment.
What can I eat afterward?
Soft foods for the first few days, and avoid straws.
