Surgical Extractions

Dr. Fakhoury performs dental extractions at our office, offering both simple and surgical procedures to address various dental needs.

Simple Extractions

Simple extractions are performed on teeth that are visible in the mouth and can be done under local anesthesia. This procedure involves elevating and/or grasping the visible portion of the tooth using specialized instruments. The tooth is gently rocked back and forth with dental forceps until the periodontal ligament is sufficiently broken, and the supporting bone is widened to ease the tooth's removal. Controlled, steady pressure ensures a smooth extraction process.

Surgical Extractions

Surgical extractions are necessary for teeth that are not easily accessible, such as those broken under the gum line or impacted teeth that have not fully erupted. Dr. Fakhoury performs this type of dental surgery when required, ensuring careful and precise removal to maintain oral health.
