Dental Extractions in Boynton Beach – Gentle, Pain-Free Solutions for a Healthier Smile

At Cap Dental in Boynton Beach, we provide gentle tooth extractions for patients of all ages. Whether you need a simple extraction, wisdom tooth removal, or a complex surgical procedure, our experienced team ensures a comfortable and stress-free experience.

Why You Might Need a Tooth Extraction

We always try to save natural teeth when possible. However, sometimes removing a tooth is the best option to protect your oral health. Extractions may be recommended for:

✔ Severe tooth decay or infection

✔ Impacted, painful or partially erupted wisdom teeth

✔ Advanced gum disease

✔ Overcrowding before orthodontic treatment

✔ Cracked or broken teeth that can't be restored

Types of Extractions

Simple Extractions

Performed on visible teeth that are easy to access and remove.

Surgical Extractions

Required for teeth that are broken off at the gumline or impacted.

Wisdom Teeth Removal

Prevent future complications from impacted or misaligned third molars.

Extractions: What to Expect

  • We perform a dental exam and take X-rays to diagnose the issue and clearly explain your personalized treatment plan.

  • We offer safe and effective sedation options to help you feel calm, relaxed, and comfortable throughout your visit.

    Our sedation options include:

    • Local anesthesia

    • Nitrous oxide (laughing gas)

    • Oral sedation

    • Gentle techniques for minimal discomfort

  • On the day of your extraction, you’ll be kept comfortable with anesthesia or sedation, the tooth will be gently removed, and you’ll leave with simple instructions for a smooth recovery.

  • We’ll check your healing at a follow-up visit, answer any questions, and ensure everything is on track for a smooth recovery.

Why Replacing Missing Teeth Matters

Missing teeth can lead to shifting, bone loss, facial sagging, bite issues, and difficulty chewing or speaking. Replacing them protects your bite, restores your smile, and keeps you looking and feeling your best. Replacement options are:

✔ Dental Implants: A long-lasting solution that looks and feels like a natural tooth while preserving bone.

✔ Bridges: Fixed replacement anchored to nearby teeth—great when implants aren't an option.

✔ Dentures: Removable options for replacing multiple teeth—affordable and non-invasive.

Extraction FAQs

  • ✔ Are extractions painful?

    No. We use local anesthesia and offer sedation options to ensure your extraction is as comfortable and pain-free as possible.

  • ✔ How long does recovery take?

    Most patients recover within a few days. You may experience mild swelling or discomfort for 24–72 hours.

  • ✔ Can I go back to work the next day?

    Many patients return to work the next day, depending on how they feel. For surgical or wisdom tooth extractions, you may want to rest for 1–2 days.

  • ✔ Will I need to replace the extracted tooth?

    Yes, in most cases. Replacing a missing tooth helps prevent shifting teeth, jawbone loss, and bite problems. We’ll discuss options like implants, bridges, or dentures with you.

  • ✔ What can I eat after an extraction?

    Stick to soft, cool foods like yogurt, mashed potatoes, smoothies, and soup. Avoid hard, hot, or crunchy foods for a few days.

  • ✔ How do I care for the area after the extraction?

    Avoid rinsing or drinking through a straw for 24 hours. Keep the area clean, take prescribed medication as directed, and follow all post-op instructions we provide.
