Simple dental extractions are suitable for teeth that can visibly be seen in the mouth.

Surgical Dental Extraction

Surgical dental extraction is more complex as it is performed on teeth that have been broken off to a point where they cannot be seen, or for teeth that have not come out yet.

Though you can seek out an oral surgeon to perform a surgical dental extraction for you, our highly skilled team at Lakeshore Dental Center, which is made up of some of the best dentists in Mississauga, can execute this procedure for you with the utmost precision, while using a local anesthetic.

To be able to extract the tooth, a surgical dental extraction may at times require removal of some of the bone surrounding the tooth or cutting the tooth in the middle.

Options After Extraction

After extraction, it is imperative that the tooth be replaced with a dental implant as the bone will begin recessing after 6 months, or adjacent and opposing teeth will shift into the empty space created by extraction.
