Welcome to our gallery of teeth extractions that were performed in our office. These painless tooth extractions were performed under general anesthesia (Just good old numbing with Lidocaine). During a tooth extraction our patients will feel some pressure but there’s no pain during the procedure. Patients are then able to leave on their own recognizance to continue their day.
Teeth are usually extracted because they’re infected or decayed beyond repair. Most commonly these are wisdom teeth or root canal teeth that have failed. We are proud to provide this important service to help the our wonderful patient and serve to improve the health of our community.
28 year old female patient came crying in pain to our New York dental office. She had a painful abscess caused by her infected wisdom tooth. In this case the tooth was impossible for her to keep clean because gum tissue was covering the tooth. Over a period of time, bacteria build-up as food collected. This created a dental abscess.

Patient reported a full recovery within a few days.

28 year old female patient wanted to pre-emptively extract her upper teeth before they could cause any problems.

Patient was experiencing swollen gums around his lower wisdom tooth. Since it was very difficult to clean the wisdom tooth, food accumulation would cause the gum to become inflamed.
