Gentle, Expert Tooth Removal When You Need It Most

Tooth extractions are sometimes necessary to protect your overall oral health. Whether it’s due to decay, damage, crowding, or infection, iSmile Dentistry provides safe and comfortable tooth removal services across our Utah and Arizona locations.

Our focus is always on patient comfort, using advanced tools and gentle techniques to make your experience as smooth and stress-free as possible.

When Is A Tooth Extraction Needed?

While we aim to save natural teeth whenever possible, an extraction may be the best option if you have:

  • Severe tooth decay or damage that can’t be restored
  • Advanced gum disease affecting tooth stability
  • A broken tooth below the gum line
  • Overcrowding before orthodontic treatment
  • Impacted or problematic wisdom teeth

iSmile Dentistry makes the tooth extraction process smooth and stress-free. Here’s what you can expect before, during, and after your procedure:

  • Comfort-first approach – Our experienced dental team uses gentle techniques and local anesthesia to minimize discomfort and keep you relaxed throughout the procedure.
  • Expert care – We carefully remove the tooth with precision to protect surrounding tissue and support healthy healing.
  • Post-extraction instructions – You’ll receive clear, step-by-step aftercare guidelines, including how to manage swelling, prevent infection, and care for the extraction site at home.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. We use local anesthesia to keep the area numb during the procedure. You may feel some pressure, but not pain. Mild soreness afterward is normal and manageable.

Most patients recover in 7 to 10 days. Following aftercare instructions can speed up the healing process and help avoid complications like dry socket.

If the extracted tooth isn’t a wisdom tooth or part of an orthodontic plan, your dentist may recommend a replacement to maintain bite alignment and jawbone health.

A dry socket happens when the blood clot is dislodged from the extraction site. Avoid smoking, straws, and hard rinsing for the first 48 hours to reduce the risk.

In many cases, yes. Most dental insurance plans cover medically necessary extractions. Our team can help you understand your benefits.
