Extractions

At Drs. Davila & Velazquez, P.A. in Greenville, NC, we perform tooth extractions to address severe trauma, decay, infection, or crowding, preventing complications like pain or damage to surrounding teeth. Whether it’s an impacted permanent tooth, a wisdom tooth injured in an accident, or one compromised by advanced decay, our team ensures safe removal to protect your oral health.

Extraction Options

Simple Extraction: For visible, fully erupted teeth, we gently remove them

Surgical Extraction: For impacted or unerupted teeth, we make a small incision in the gum to access and remove the tooth, recommended only when other treatments won’t suffice, sometimes sectioning the tooth for easier extraction.

Why Extract a Tooth?

Extractions may be needed to relieve overcrowding, allowing space for healthy alignment, or to remove a primary tooth blocking a permanent one’s eruption. They also prevent infection from spreading—such as from an abscessed, impacted tooth—or protect adjacent teeth from harm. Post-extraction, following our aftercare guidance is key to healing smoothly.
