Tooth Extractions in Milford, MI | Fortson Dentistry Milford

Why Would a Tooth Need to Be Extracted?

A tooth may need to be extracted if it’s severely decayed, damaged beyond repair, or affected by advanced gum disease that causes it to loosen and compromise surrounding teeth. Extractions are also common before orthodontic treatment to address crowding or when removing impacted or painful wisdom teeth. Your comfort is always our top priority.

At Fortson Dentistry, we’ll carefully evaluate your situation and make sure the extraction process is safe, gentle, and stress-free. Need an evaluation? Call today to schedule your tooth extraction consultation!

What to Expect During a Tooth Extraction

Step 1: Consultation & X-rays

We examine your tooth, take X-rays to evaluate its condition, and discuss your treatment options to ensure the safest and most effective extraction plan.

Step 2: Numbing & Sedation Options

We offer local anesthesia and sedation options to keep you relaxed and pain-free, ensuring maximum comfort throughout your tooth extraction procedure.

Step 3: Gentle Removal

We carefully extract the tooth using precise techniques that minimize trauma and help preserve the surrounding bone and tissues for a smoother recovery.

Step 4: Healing & Aftercare

We give you clear, personalized aftercare instructions to support fast healing, reduce discomfort, and lower the risk of complications after your extraction.

What Happens After an Extraction?

Once a tooth is removed, it’s important to replace it to prevent nearby teeth from shifting and to maintain proper bite alignment and jawbone health over time. Restoration options include dental implants for a permanent, natural feel; bridges for fixed, functional results; and dentures or partials for budget-friendly replacement.

Our team at Fortson Dentistry will walk you through the best solution based on your needs, goals, and lifestyle. Not sure which option is right for you? Schedule a consultation and let us help you decide!

"Very impressed with how many hours Michelle worked to get the medical (vs. dental) portion of my procedure covered by Medicare. I didn't even know Medicare would cover some tooth-related procedures that involve a problem in the bone like infection, such as a root canal or the extraction of a tooth with placement of an implant. Very rare to find a dental office that will go through the trouble to get themselves, and then their patients, approved by Medicare. Medicare part B and my Medicare Supplemental insurance covered it all up through the implant; saved me thousands of dollars! Thank you Michelle and doctor Fortson!"
