Tooth Extractions At Zoltek Advanced Dentistry

Comfortable, Compassionate Tooth Extractions

At Dr. Ewa Zoltek’s office, we do everything we can to save your natural teeth—but sometimes, a tooth extraction is the healthiest option. Whether it’s due to decay, infection, crowding, or trauma, we provide comfortable, safe, and compassionate tooth removal with your long-term oral health in mind.

Why Might a Tooth Need to Be Removed?

• A tooth is severely decayed or damaged beyond repair
• There’s a serious infection that can’t be resolved with a root canal
• Teeth are overcrowded (especially before orthodontic treatment)
• A baby tooth fails to fall out naturally
• Wisdom teeth are impacted or problematic
• A tooth is loose due to advanced gum disease

Dr. Zoltek will thoroughly assess your situation and explain all your options before recommending an extraction.

What to Expect During an Extraction

• Evaluation & X-rays – We assess the tooth and surrounding structures
• Numbing & Comfort – Local anesthesia ensures a pain-free procedure (with sedation options available)
• Tooth Removal – The tooth is gently loosened and removed with minimal trauma
• Aftercare Guidance – We’ll walk you through the healing process and next steps

Most extractions are quick and comfortable, and we’ll make sure you feel fully at ease before, during, and after the procedure.

What Happens After Extraction?

Once a tooth is removed, we’ll help you plan for a healthy, functional replacement if needed. Options may include:

• Dental implants
• Bridges
• Partial dentures

Replacing a missing tooth not only restores your smile but also protects your bite and jawbone health.
