Tooth Extractions

Tooth Extractions & Wisdom Teeth Removal in Turlock, CA

Tooth extractions are necessary in certain cases where the tooth has severe decay or damage. At Turlock Dental Care we love helping patients restore their smiles, and always try to save natural teeth as much as possible. If a tooth has an infection that cannot be cleared and cleaned out with a root canal procedure this is another reason extraction is necessary.

If you need a tooth extraction Turlock Dental Care provides exceptional service where patients can remain comfortable and relaxed. We know having teeth pulled can be stressful, and our friendly team will always do our best to ensure you have a positive experience. Turlock Dental Care offers multiple dental sedation options for our patients to help make the procedure easy and pain-free. Once your tooth is extracted our team of doctors will discuss tooth replacement options, and help you choose an option that fits your needs.

What To Expect if You Need an Extraction

We offer a calm and relaxing environment where our patients can sit comfortably in the exam chair during their extraction. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area around the tooth, and additional sedation options may be used if requested. Our doctors will gently remove your tooth and pack the area with gauze to stop any bleeding.

Our team will review post-extraction instructions with you to ensure you can care for your extraction site at home. We recommend following good oral hygiene habits and avoiding any strenuous exercise for 24 hours after the surgery. An ice pack can be used at home to help ease any pain around the extraction area.

Patients should avoid using straws and follow a soft food diet while the mouth heals. Over-the-counter or prescription pain medications may be recommended, and patients are encouraged to call our office if they experience any prolonged pain or bleeding. Turlock Dental Care offers flexible hours and emergency appointments to address any urgent issues after an extraction.
