Gentle Tooth Extractions in North Carolina
At CarolinasDentist, We Provide Gentle Tooth Extractions
Gentle Dental Extractions
Sometimes, a tooth extraction is necessary because you need to preserve your dental health. This could be because of severe infection from decay, serious damage from an injury, or overcrowding. We’ll look into all other options beforehand, but if you require an extraction, we’ll make sure you’re kept completely comfortable throughout the procedure and give you aftercare guidelines to ensure a speedy recovery. We’re also happy to discuss your tooth replacement options afterward as well. If you’re healthy enough for an extraction, chances are good that you’re healthy enough for a replacement. Contact us today!
How will I know if I need a dental extraction?
Our team practices conservative dentistry, so we try to reserve more invasive procedures like dental extractions for cases in which there are no better alternatives for the patient. There is really no way for patients to know if they need a dental extraction on their own, so if you are experiencing severe tooth pain or one or more teeth have been greatly damaged, we recommend scheduling a visit with our team so we can offer a custom diagnosis.
Can I return to work or school after a dental extraction?
Dental extractions are advanced surgical procedures, so patients should always plan to rest and recover post-treatment. You will likely not feel like doing too much, and too much activity too soon can cause complications with your healing process as well. The amount of time that you will need to take off from your normal routine will depend on how many teeth you are having extracted, and our team can help you estimate when you will be able to return to school and/or work.
What happens if I don’t get a dental extraction?
If a dental extraction is added to your treatment plan, we recommend scheduling your procedure sooner rather than later. If a tooth needs to be removed due to decay and dental trauma, you may experience unnecessary pain and discomfort, and an infection can develop. Teeth that are crowding each other can cause dental damage and orthodontic issues as well.
Still need to schedule your treatment? Please get in touch with our office, and we’ll be happy to assist.
The team I was assigned to for my dental procedure was the best. I couldn't have wished for anything different. They were professional, informative, caring and efficient. I was in and out of there in 50 min. I absolutely will be returning to Carolinas Dentist for my future dental needs.

They calmed my nerves. We went over a treatment plan and went over the cost so I would not get any surprises. I am happy I chose to come here. They were able to do one of the procedure today so that was awesome! Read Less

The hygienist have always been friendly and have always made the cleaning process enjoyable. The dental chairs provide with a vibrating massage while they work on you, so relaxing.

Read MoreI would like to start off by saying I have spent the majority of my life in customer service management, and my expectations in a full client experience are hard to meet. That being said, this office beyond exceeded my expectations. This was my daughter’s first visit to a dentist and you would have thought the whole office was there for her. A true red carpet roll out for her to walk back, she laughed, she smiled, she sang and she asked to go back next week. Kayla was absolutely incredible, my daughter has told people she has a new best friend and Dr. Bodah made her feel so comfortable; she has a tooth that is incredibly loose and he jokingly offered to pull and she would have let him do it. All in all, I couldn’t be happier that we chose this office and got this team for our first experience at the dentist, we might even have a countdown for when we get to go back. Read Less
Lyndsay Benson3/28/2024Wonderful experience with Dr. G and his assistant! After being a dental assistant myself for 25 years I can honestly say he’s an excellent dentist! The work he did was top notch and I hope he will stay at this office for my future dental needs!
Amy Marsh2/20/2024Dr. Elliot took great care of me today! I got one of my molars extracted and she made sure it was a painless experience. I will definitely be coming back to see her and her staff! They’re amazing.

Read MoreMe experience with Dr. Chris and Dr. Lauren (and their amazing staff) has been nothing but amazing. Front desk will greet you with smiles and positive words. I would give 10 stars if I could. I came in with fear and thought there was absolutely no way I could stay seated in a chair while someone poked at my teeth. They were encouraging and spoke softly about my fears. Helping me along the way to gain their trust and have a positive experience. I envied people who could go in for simple cleanings. They treated me and husband with such respect. Gave us an outlined treatment plan. We knew what to expect not only with treatments, but costs as well. I could not tell you how happy I am in words, but highly recommend this practice if you were like myself with fear & trauma in the past. I can't wait to see them again for my routine cleaning. Thank you to Dr. Chris & Dr. Lauren & staff! You have given something that is priceless to me. ( thank you Karen you're amazing during a root canal and that says a lot). See you again soon!

Both times I have been in, they have always been super friendly with both me and each other. To have a staff that works well together makes a patient feel comfortable. Today I had to have my first ever crown and I am not a fan of needles or pain. They handled the anxiety well. They asked what exactly my anxiety was about and wanted to handle it the best they could (aka leave me numbed up a bit longer). They were very encouraging throughout the entire process, telling me I'm doing great. For someone who is not a fan of dental procedures, this office has put me at ease. I won't be afraid the next crown I have to get 🙂 Read Less
