Tooth Extractions
Sometimes it is medically necessary to remove a tooth. We work quickly and use local anesthesia and sedation to minimize any discomfort.
Tooth Extractions in Colorado Springs
If a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, or contributing to crowding or infection, sometimes removing the tooth is the best option. Whether you’re dealing with a painful emergency or preparing for orthodontic treatment, our experienced team is here to help.
We offer simple extractions (for visible teeth) and surgical extractions (for impacted or broken teeth), including wisdom teeth removal. Modern techniques and sedation options make most procedures quick and easy with minimal discomfort. We’ll walk you through every step and provide aftercare instructions, so you’ll know exactly what to expect.

What can I eat after tooth extraction?
Stick to soft, cool foods for the first few days—yogurt, mashed potatoes, smoothies, or scrambled eggs. Avoid hot, spicy, crunchy, or chewy foods until the site is fully healed.
-
Does a tooth extraction hurt?
We prioritize your comfort and use local anesthesia to numb the area completely. Sedation options are also available. After the procedure, mild soreness is normal and manageable with over-the-counter medication.

Are extractions covered by dental insurance?
Many plans cover part of the cost, especially when the extraction is medically necessary. Our team will check your benefits and work with you to ensure clear pricing and flexible payment options.
