The best way to learn whether you require this treatment is to visit our office so we can closely examine your mouth and take X-rays to determine the root of the problem. We’ll discuss each of your options with you and how we can rebuild your smile after your procedure, if necessary.
Tooth Extractions
Rebuilding a Healthy Foundation For Your Smile
If you are experiencing severe pain caused by a damaged tooth or advanced tooth infection, you may need to receive a tooth extraction in Jacksonville. At Smiles on Riverside, we strive to help our patients preserve all of their natural teeth, which is why we only resort to extractions whenever it’s necessary to ensure the health of the rest of the teeth.
Common Reasons for Tooth Extraction
There are a variety of issues that can result in the need for a tooth extraction. Some reasons why this procedure would be necessary include:
-Severely damaged or decayed teeth that can’t be repaired with a filling.
-A severely infected tooth.
-Crowded teeth that need to be removed in order to have successful orthodontic treatment.
-Loose teeth as a result of gum disease.
How Tooth Extractions Work
Many patients worry that the procedure is going to be painful. However, before the treatment begins, we’ll administer local anesthesia to completely numb the area. Using dental forceps, we’ll remove the damaged or crowded tooth to prevent problems from developing with your other natural teeth. After your procedure, we’ll provide you with some aftercare tips and discuss any follow-up appointment plans with you to ensure that you’re healing properly.

Met Dr Wood for first time yesterday and was very pleasantly surprised; she is sensitive, supportive, gentle and kind. I’m actually looking forward to a dental procedure and that is a first for me. Dental hygienist, Li , is excellent, I’m actually relaxed in her chair.

Dr. Wood is amazing, patient and cares about her work. Had to get fillings done and she took her time and made the experience enjoyable while giving me confidence that my teeth were being worked on by a professional thru her actions. I would recommend anyone see her if they need dental work done.
