Tooth Extraction in Wilmington, NC

Gentle, Expert Tooth Removal

While preserving natural teeth is always our priority at Myrtle Grove Implant & Family Dentistry, sometimes extraction becomes necessary for your overall oral health. Dr. Graves performs both simple and complex extractions with a gentle touch, using advanced techniques and appropriate sedation options to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. Our compassionate approach puts even anxious patients at ease.

Services

We offer a wide range of services to help you achieve your goals.

Simple Extractions

For visible teeth, simple extractions remove damaged or decayed teeth that cannot be saved with restorative treatments like crowns or fillings.

Surgical Extractions

When teeth are impacted or broken below the gumline, surgical extraction techniques ensure complete and safe removal with minimal discomfort.

Wisdom Teeth Removal

We expertly remove problematic wisdom teeth that cause pain, infection, or crowding, often using sedation for maximum comfort during this common procedure.
