Tooth Extractions

At Dentcare Now, we understand that dental emergencies can be painful and stressful. When a tooth is severely damaged, infected, or causing significant pain, a tooth extraction may be necessary. Our skilled team in Fairfax, VA, provides quick and compassionate care to relieve discomfort and restore oral health.

A tooth extraction is the immediate removal of a tooth due to severe pain, infection, trauma, or other urgent dental issues. This procedure helps prevent further complications and protects your overall oral health.

• Performed on a tooth that is visible and easily accessible.
• The tooth is loosened and removed using dental forceps.
• Typically requires minimal recovery time.

• Needed for teeth that are broken below the gum line, impacted, or difficult to remove.
• A small incision is made in the gum to access and extract the tooth.
• Common for impacted wisdom teeth or severely damaged teeth.
