Your visit
What happens at your same-day extraction visit
- 1
Call or book
Call (832) 831-9101 or book online. Tell us if you have swelling, fever or trouble swallowing so we can see you as soon as possible.
- 2
Health review & X-ray
We review your health history and medications, then take an X-ray to see the roots and the bone around the tooth.
- 3
Options & cost first
Your dentist explains your options and costs before anything is done. Nothing happens without your approval.
- 4
Numbing & removal
The area is numbed with local anesthetic so you feel pressure, not sharp pain. Simple extractions usually take only a few minutes.
- 5
Home with a plan
You go home with gauze, written aftercare instructions and a phone number to call if you have questions.
Types of extraction
Simple and surgical extractions planned for you.
Simple extraction
For a tooth that is fully visible above the gum. The tooth is loosened and gently removed in one visit, usually with a quick recovery.
Surgical extraction
For broken-down teeth, teeth with curved roots or impacted wisdom teeth. A small opening in the gum lets the dentist remove the tooth in sections when needed.
Multiple extractions
When several teeth are failing, we plan the extractions together with your replacement — immediate dentures, partial dentures or implants — so you are not left without teeth.
Aftercare
Recovery after a tooth extraction
- Bite on gauze for 30–45 minutes to let a clot form.
- Do not smoke, spit hard or drink through a straw for the first few days — this protects the clot and helps prevent dry socket.
- Eat soft, cool foods for the first day and chew on the other side.
- Use cold packs on the cheek to reduce swelling and take medication only as directed.
- Call us if bleeding, swelling or pain gets worse after the third day.
When to go to the hospital instead
If you have swelling that is spreading to your eye or neck, trouble breathing or swallowing, or a high fever, go to the nearest emergency room or call 911 right away. These can be signs of a serious infection.
What comes next
Replacing the tooth after it is removed
Losing a tooth can let neighboring teeth drift and the jawbone shrink over time. Because we also make dentures and place dental implants in the same office, we can plan your replacement before the extraction — including dentures delivered the day teeth are removed when that option fits your case.

Like any surgery, this treatment has risks, including pain, swelling, bleeding, infection, nerve injury that can cause numbness, sinus problems with upper teeth and, for implants, implant failure. Your dentist reviews your specific risks, benefits and alternatives with you before treatment. Actual results may vary.
