At Birmingham Emergency Dental, preserving your natural teeth is always our priority. When conservative treatments like root canals, crowns, or fillings aren’t enough, an emergency extraction may be the safest and most effective solution to relieve pain and protect your health.
Tooth extractions are recommended when a tooth is too damaged or infected to be saved. Common reasons include:
Severe Decay
When a cavity has destroyed most of the tooth structure and cannot be restored with a filling or crown, removing the tooth prevents further pain and infection.
Fractures or Trauma
Teeth that are broken beyond repair due to injury, grinding, or accidents may need to be extracted to prevent complications.
Infection or Abscess
Untreated infections can damage bone and spread to other areas. Extractions help stop infection and protect surrounding tissues.
Orthodontic Needs
Some extractions are done to correct overcrowding or to make room for alignment as part of an orthodontic plan.
Your comfort is our priority. Here’s how we ensure a safe and pain-free experience:
We numb the area to ensure the procedure is completely painless.
Using gentle techniques, we loosen and remove the tooth. For difficult extractions, such as those below the gum line, a minor surgical approach may be needed.
We provide step-by-step recovery instructions and are available for any follow-up concerns. If needed, we place sutures to aid healing and manage bleeding.
Delaying an extraction can worsen pain, infection, and overall oral health. If you’re dealing with a dental emergency, we’re ready to help—without the long wait or hidden fees.
For same-day treatment and professional care you can trust.
