What Are Tooth Extractions?

Even though Dr. Levi Evalt makes every attempt to conserve and preserve your natural teeth, there are cases where a tooth or teeth may have to be extracted. A simple extraction removes a tooth that is visible over the gums. This is typically used for a tooth that is damaged or decayed beyond repair. A surgical extraction removes a tooth that hasn't erupted over the gumline. Surgical extractions are most frequently done to remove impacted teeth, like wisdom teeth, that do not have sufficient space to fit into your mouth. Whatever the reason for having an extraction at Dr. Levi Evalt Dental Excellence, our team will give you the best treatment. Our Corry, PA office provides different sedation methods, like nitrous oxide and oral-conscious sedation, which means you can stay comfortable and calm during your treatment. Get in touch with our team for more information or to schedule an examination with Dr. Evalt to improve your oral health.

How Do Tooth Extractions Work?

Dental extractions are performed in our office using local anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth being treated. Different forms of sedation may be used, depending on the extent of the extraction and to help keep you relaxed if you have some dental worries. Once you're prepared, Dr. Evalt will start the procedure. For a simple extraction, Dr. Evalt will loosen up the tooth with a special device known as an elevator before removing the tooth. A surgical extraction involves making incisions in your gums to get to the tooth. If needed, the tooth may be broken up into smaller pieces so that it can be removed. When the tooth has been removed, Dr. Evalt will stitch the incision in the gums. Dr. Evalt can prescribe antibiotics that should be taken before and following the procedure — in case you have a current illness, if your immune system is weak, if the process is lengthy, or if you have some other specific health problems.

Dental Excellence was quick, professional and very helpful when my husband needed a root canal. I had posted a review explaining a billing issue that I felt was not resolved as quickly as it should have, after much discussion we have come to a resolution we are both happy with. I appreciate the office going above and beyond for their patients during stressful times with insurance run-arounds. Thank you Dental Excellence!

Im a very VERY hard individual to impress/please and, i never give 5 stars, however, was GREAT experience. Ive ripped last 2 teeth out myself. 3xcept apparently left some roots🤷‍♂️ Welp quick xray, and gave me very Detailed plan/point of attack and gave me MULTIPLE directions to go. Truly made me feel as if it was 110% my decision and noone twisted my arm about it. Sweet lady nurses that I enjoyed their company, (even Ninja nurse i had no idea was there) and the doctor not only made it quick and painless, explained everything in a detailed format, along with showing the xray and point of emphasis. Truly a MUST GO. Officially now will call it, will be my Dentist office for life!

Can I eat normally after a tooth extraction?
It is recommended to stick to soft foods and avoid hard, chewy, or spicy foods for the first few days after a tooth extraction. Once the area has healed, normal eating habits can resume.
Is a tooth extraction painful?
The procedure itself is usually painless as the area is numbed with local anesthesia. However, it is common to experience some discomfort and swelling after the procedure. Pain relief medication can be prescribed to manage the pain.
