Teeth Extractions in Regina

Clear Guidance. Minimal Discomfort. Smooth Recovery.

Tooth removal isn’t always avoidable — but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming.

There are times when saving a tooth just isn’t the best option. Whether it’s due to deep decay, infection, crowding, or damage beyond repair, an extraction may be the right next step.

We know the idea can bring up some nerves, especially if you’ve never had one before. That’s why we take time to explain everything, walk you through your options, and make the experience as smooth as possible — before, during, and after the procedure.

When A Tooth May Need To Be Removed

It’s severely decayed or broken and can’t be restored

There’s an infection that can’t be resolved with a root canal

It’s causing crowding or interfering with orthodontic treatment

Gum disease has loosened it beyond saving

It’s impacted or stuck below the gumline

We’ll always explore alternatives first — but when removal is the right choice, we’ll do it with care and clarity.

What To Expect During An Extraction

Most extractions are done under local anesthesia, so the area is numb and you’re comfortable. Once the tooth is gently loosened and removed, we place gauze to help control bleeding and support healing.

The appointment is usually quicker than expected, and we’ll talk through everything before we begin so you know what to expect.

Aftercare And Healing

You may feel a little sore for a day or two, but most people recover quickly. We’ll provide simple, clear instructions to help you heal — including how to keep the area clean, what to eat, and when to return to your usual routine.

If a replacement tooth is needed, we’ll also walk you through options like implants, bridges, or dentures.

Why It’s Sometimes The Right Call

As much as we focus on saving teeth, sometimes removing one is the healthiest choice. A timely extraction can stop pain, prevent infection from spreading, and make space for a better-aligned smile.
