Gentle, Fear-Free Tooth Removal
When you experience pain from an infected tooth or an impacted wisdom tooth, it can be overwhelming. We can end your tooth pain and reestablish your dental health—and a normal, comfortable life. At Signature Smiles Dental, we’re exceptionally skilled in extracting teeth. Our team is empowered by oral surgery training from renowned educational institutions. We always first attempt to preserve a natural tooth. If we determine your tooth can’t be saved, only then will we recommend extraction. With our combination of expertise and sedation, we’re the practice to rely on for pain- and fear-free tooth extractions in Streetsboro, Elyria, and Brunswick, OH.
Anesthesia is key to making extractions comfortable and anxiety-free. Our practice is equipped with an extensive range of sedation options. Using IV sedation or oral sedation, we can put you in a sleeplike state for the entire extraction. You won’t be aware of the procedure or feel anything while it’s happening, nor will you remember it afterward. We also offer nitrous oxide—you may have heard this called “laughing gas”—which keeps you alert but completely relaxed for the duration of your procedure. We administer this through a mask at the beginning of the treatment and can end its effects quickly afterward.

Tooth extraction aftercare
Once you’ve had any tooth extracted, you must be careful with the extraction site—especially if you’re not replacing the tooth. During healing, the empty tooth socket will usually develop a blood clot. If this protective layer doesn’t form or becomes dislodged, you may be facing a very painful complication. Dry socket occurs when the nerves and bone beneath an extraction site become exposed. To prevent this, follow all of the doctor’s post-care instructions. This includes not rinsing the area immediately, not using a straw to drink, and avoiding certain foods. With our skill and guidance, tooth extractions in Streetsboro, Elyria, and Brunswick, OH can be efficient and painless. We offer convenient evening and weekend hours for easy consultation scheduling.
