Gentle, Stress-Free Tooth Extractions for a Healthier Smile
If you’re searching for “tooth extraction near me” because of pain, infection, or a broken tooth — you’re not alone. At Stone Creek Village Dentistry, our gentle and experienced team in Del Rey Oaks, CA provides safe, comfortable tooth extractions to help relieve pain and protect your oral health.
We make the process simple — from consultation to recovery — so you can feel confident and cared for every step of the way.
Why You Might Need a Tooth Extraction
While our goal is always to save your natural teeth, sometimes an extraction is the best way to restore your oral health. You may need a dental extraction if you have:
- Severe tooth decay or infection
- Broken or fractured teeth beyond repair
- Overcrowding or impacted teeth
- Preparation for orthodontic treatment
- Advanced gum disease
Our dentist will perform a thorough exam and X-rays to determine if extraction is necessary — and explore alternatives whenever possible.
Types of Tooth Extractions We Offer
At Stone Creek Village Dentistry, we perform both simple and surgical extractions:
Simple Tooth Extraction
Used for visible teeth above the gum line. This is a quick and straightforward procedure, often completed in a single visit.
Surgical Tooth Extraction
Recommended for teeth that are broken, impacted (such as wisdom teeth), or haven’t fully erupted. Our team ensures the process is smooth, using advanced techniques and gentle care.
Comfort First: We offer local anesthesia and sedation options to help you stay relaxed and pain-free during treatment.
What to Expect During Your Visit
Consultation & X-rays – We assess your tooth and plan your personalized treatment.
-
Gentle Extraction – Our dentist carefully removes the tooth with precision and comfort in mind.
