The Benefits of Tooth Extractions
Protect Your Oral Health
Removing a damaged or infected tooth prevents further complications and protects your overall health.
Prevent Crowding & Misalignment
Extractions create space when needed, helping to avoid bite problems and orthodontic issues.
Relieve Pain & Discomfort
A severely decayed or infected tooth can cause ongoing pain. Extraction provides lasting relief.

Our Treatment Process
Comprehensive Consultation
Dr. Jagow will assess your tooth and overall oral health to determine if extraction is the best option. We’ll review your X-rays, discuss alternatives, and make sure you feel confident about your treatment plan.
Gentle Tooth Removal
On the day of your procedure, we ensure maximum comfort with local anesthesia or sedation if needed. Using modern, minimally invasive techniques, we carefully extract the tooth with as little impact as possible to surrounding tissue.
Aftercare & Healing
We provide personalized aftercare instructions to promote fast healing. You’ll get guidance on pain management, diet modifications, and hygiene tips to keep your recovery on track. If a replacement option like a dental implant is needed, we’ll discuss the next steps.
