Gentle, comfortable tooth extractions when a tooth cannot be saved — with a clear plan for replacement.
While we always strive to save natural teeth whenever possible, sometimes a tooth extraction is the best option for your overall oral health. Reasons for extraction include severe decay that cannot be restored, advanced gum disease, a cracked tooth that cannot be repaired, overcrowding, or preparation for orthodontic treatment.
At Grandville Dental Health Center, we perform extractions with a gentle technique and ensure your complete comfort throughout the procedure. We also discuss tooth replacement options so you have a clear plan for restoring your smile.
Call (616) 531-0360We evaluate the tooth and take X-rays to assess the root structure and surrounding bone before proceeding.
Local anesthesia is administered to ensure you feel no pain during the extraction.
Using specialized instruments, we gently loosen and remove the tooth. For surgical extractions (impacted teeth), a small incision may be needed.
We provide detailed instructions for caring for the extraction site and managing any discomfort.
We discuss your options for replacing the extracted tooth — including implants, bridges, or partial dentures.
Extractions are recommended when a tooth cannot be saved through other means — due to severe decay, advanced gum disease, a non-restorable fracture, or for orthodontic purposes. We always explore all options to save the tooth before recommending extraction.
