Restore Your Oral Health With a Tooth Extraction in Carlisle, PA

Get a dental extraction to prevent tooth damage and oral health problems.



Dr. Serafin and Dr. Shore Offer Tooth ExtractionWhen a Dental Extraction Is Necessary

If you have severely decayed teeth, damaged teeth after gum disease, or teeth that cannot be saved by any other method, Dr. Robert Serafin or Dr. Tamara Shore may recommend a tooth extraction to remove the tooth entirely. Dental extractions are reserved for cases where no other treatment or procedure will save the tooth. We perform both simple and surgical extractions at our practice, depending on how much of the tooth structure is still below the gum line.

Benefits of Tooth Extractions

When you have decaying teeth in the mouth and are at risk for a serious infection, the problematic teeth must be removed. Tooth extractions help to reduce the risk of further decay and other oral health issues that could lead to tooth loss. Having a tooth extracted may support an orthodontic treatment plan and help healthy teeth grow into their proper position. This is a relatively simple procedure that can be performed under local anesthesia.

How a Dental Extraction Is Performed

Dr. Serafin or Dr. Shore will either section off parts of the tooth before removing the tooth with forceps or cut away some of the gum tissue for easier removal. Both techniques are performed under local anesthesia so the patient feels little to no discomfort throughout the process. We do everything we can to make this a painless experience for the patient.

Recovering from Extraction

Recovering From a Dental Extraction

Your gums will start to heal immediately after treatment but you will need to be careful with the empty tooth socket. We recommend avoiding touching the treated area with your tongue and to refrain from drinking through a straw to reduce the risk of “dry socket.” A healthy blood clot should form in the sock-et to support the healing process. Dr. Serafin or Dr. Shore will provide detailed instructions about recovering after a tooth extraction before your treatment.
