Tooth Extraction

At Three Rivers Dental, we focus on preventative care so we can help you avoid major problems; however, sometimes there are cases in which a tooth extraction is the best choice for your oral health. In many of these cases, the tooth removal reduces dental damage and eases pain and discomfort. 

We understand that needing a tooth extraction can feel overwhelming. That’s why we take a gentle, compassionate approach—guiding you through every step of the process with clear communication, advanced technology, and personalized care. We take the time to get to know our patients, ensuring you feel supported, informed, and comfortable throughout your treatment.

If you have serious dental pain, call our office today to talk over your concerns with Dr. Evon.

Is a Tooth Extraction Necessary?

Tooth extractions are seen as a last resort if other services such as root canals or thorough cleanings don’t seem to address your symptoms. Our goal is to preserve your natural teeth whenever possible. However, these situations often indicate the need for tooth removal.

  • Wisdom Teeth: Removing wisdom teeth is a common cause of tooth extractions. Dr. Evon will determine your need for removal during your regular dental visits.
  • Severe Tooth Injury: Personal or sports injuries can injure your teeth beyond repair. Using mouth guards during high-risk activities can reduce the risk of tooth loss.
  • Late-Stage Periodontitis: Periodontitis is a major form of gum disease that attacks your teeth and gumline. If left neglected, this disease can cause tooth loss. 
  • Crowded Teeth: A deeply crowded tooth may need to be removed to enable orthodontic treatment, such as using our Invisalign® clear aligners.

We’re happy to address any other concerns you may have about your oral care. If you’re unsure whether an extraction is right for you, we’ll take the time to discuss all options and create a plan that prioritizes your comfort, health, and long-term well-being.

Wisdom Teeth Treatment

Wisdom teeth grow in the very back of your jaw and typically get in the way of your other teeth. When these teeth do get in the way, they are likely to cause infections and severe pain. Wisdom teeth extractions help your teeth stay straight and eliminate tooth decay from your primary teeth.

General Tooth Extraction

General tooth extractions occur in the event of irreparable tooth damage and discomfort.

Dr. Evon will use her dental technology to get a clear picture of if your teeth will need to be removed. If tooth extraction is necessary, we will remove the tooth and replace it with a replacement tooth (such as a dental crown or bridge) to bring back functionality to your smile.
