What Is Tooth Extraction?
Dentist Auburn Hills
Tooth extraction is a dental procedure that involves removing a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. This procedure may become necessary when a tooth is deemed irreparable through other treatments such as root canal therapy. Extractions are often required for various reasons, including severe decay, significant damage, overcrowding, or impaction, where a tooth does not emerge properly through the gum line. In cases where a tooth is severely compromised, extraction is a crucial step in preventing further oral health issues. By removing problematic teeth, we can address underlying concerns promptly, thus preventing potential complications and maintaining overall dental health. This procedure helps in restoring balance and functionality within your oral cavity, ensuring that the health of your remaining teeth and gums is preserved.

What Our Patients Have to Say About Tooth Extraction
Dentist Auburn Hills
“I would like to start by saying that EVERYONE is very pleasant and professional. Due to years of poor dental hygiene habits, I have several issues to be addressed. The work started today and I would like to thank Dr. Joe Sheena, Crystal, Madison, and Heather for making it the most comfortable visit to a dentist’s office I’ve ever had. We started with a filling and then moved to two extractions. I’ve had a few of these before and this was BY FAR the least amount of discomfort I’ve experienced. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Sheena and his staff so I’ll say this, if you need gentle care or regular check-ups, I suggest Dr. Sheena, Crystal, Madison, and Heather!” -Michael Koperski
