Oral Surgery and Extractions

When there is no other treatment option and a compromised tooth cannot be saved, extraction is our last resort to take a patient out of pain and resolve chronic issues. Extraction or “pulling” a tooth is typically performed in just one visit at Windsor Family Dentists and we do everything in our power to ensure you have a comfortable experience.

The wisdom teeth or third molars are also often extracted as part of routine dental care. Wisdom teeth begin to come in or erupt between ages 16 and 25

and often come in at odd angles, an occurrence known as impaction. Impaction can be very painful and can also lead to problems with other teeth. When this occurs, extraction of the wisdom teeth is often the best solution. To learn more about extraction and extraction methods, please visit here:
