Tooth extractions involve removing a tooth from its socket in the bone. While it is never our dentists’ first choice, this procedure may be necessary for various reasons, including severe decay or infection. Sometimes, it’s required to make more room in your mouth for orthodontic treatments. While it might sound intimidating, don’t sweat it. Our team at Marshlands Family Dentistry uses cutting-edge techniques and top-notch tech to make sure your tooth-pulling experience is efficient and comfortable.
In most cases, the extractions we perform are simple. If the tooth is visible above the gum line, it can usually be removed with minimal fuss. Our Beaufort dentists will numb the area around the tooth, ensuring a pain-free process. Using specialized tools, we then gently loosen and remove the tooth. It’s quick, easy, and designed for minimal discomfort and speedy recovery.
During and after your tooth removal, your comfort is our top priority. As such, taking care of your oral health post-extraction is crucial to ensure a smooth recovery. Here’s our quick guide to aftercare:

“I don’t know if I’ve ever been to a dentist that was an enjoyable experience, but this one was. I was so anxious leading up to the appointment, and hadn’t been feeling great (mentally and physically) the morning of, but the friendliness of the staff and kindness of everyone made me happier overall. When we were finished up, I left there more joyful than I had walked in. Of course my teeth feel awesome and look great..”

“Savannah H. cleaned my teeth and she was outstanding! I am a dental hygienist as well and her training (she went to the same college I did) patient interaction, and communication were above and beyond my expectations, which tend to be pretty high! Believe it or not, very much like the shoemakers son, I was overdue for my cleaning. Savannah H. made sure to update my x-rays including taking the very important pictures.”
