Gentle, Precise Surgical Care You Can Trust
At Clermont Hills Dentistry, we understand that oral surgery can feel intimidating — but with modern techniques, advanced imaging, and a compassionate team, these procedures can be straightforward and comfortable.
Whether you need a tooth removed or bone grafting to prepare for a future implant, we focus on one thing above all else: your comfort and peace of mind.
Tooth Extractions
When a Tooth Can’t Be Saved, We’re Here to Help
Our first goal is always to preserve your natural teeth. However, when damage, infection, or crowding make extraction the best option, you can trust our team to make the process as gentle and stress-free as possible.
Common reasons for extraction include:
- Severe decay or infection
- Advanced gum disease
- Cracked or broken teeth beyond repair
- Overcrowding before orthodontic treatment
- Impacted wisdom teeth
Our Extraction Process
01
Evaluation & Imaging
We assess the tooth and surrounding bone using digital X-rays.
02
Comfort & Numbing
Local anesthesia ensures a completely pain-free experience, and nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is available to help you relax.
03
Gentle Removal
Using precise techniques, our clinicians will carefully remove the tooth while minimizing pressure and trauma to surrounding tissue.
04
Aftercare Guidance
You’ll receive clear, written instructions to promote fast, smooth healing.
If needed, we can also discuss options for replacing your tooth — such as dental implants, bridges, or partial dentures — often in the same visit.
Bone Grafting
Building a Strong Foundation for Future Restorations
Bone grafting is a procedure that strengthens or rebuilds the jawbone — often performed before or after a tooth extraction, or to prepare for a dental implant.
When a tooth is lost or removed, the bone that once supported it can begin to shrink. A bone graft replaces or supplements that missing structure, preserving both your bone volume and your facial shape.
Types of Bone Grafting We Offer:
Socket Preservation –
Performed immediately after a tooth extraction, this procedure protects and preserves the socket to prevent bone loss and maintain the foundation for future restorations or implants.
Bone Grafting at Time of Implant Placement –
In some cases, a patient may have had a tooth extracted in the past without socket preservation, resulting in localized bone loss. During implant placement, we can add bone grafting material around the implant to rebuild support, improve stability, and ensure long-term success.
The Bone Grafting Process
01
Comfort & Preparation
The area is numbed, and nitrous oxide is available for relaxation.
02
Bone Material Placement
A biocompatible grafting material is placed where bone is needed.
03
Healing & Integration
Over several months, your body naturally replaces the graft with healthy new bone.
After healing, your jaw is strong and ready for dental implants or other restorations — giving you both function and aesthetics that last.
Comfort and Care at Every Step
Your comfort is our priority before, during, and after every procedure. We take time to explain each step, answer questions, and ensure you feel fully confident in your care.
To make your visit even easier, we offer:
- Nitrous oxide for comfort
- Gentle surgical techniques that minimize trauma
- Detailed aftercare instructions for smooth recovery
- Follow-up visits to monitor healing and comfort
At Clermont Hills Dentistry, surgery isn’t something to fear — it’s a step toward restoring your health, confidence, and quality of life.
Healing Support & Aftercare
- Keep the area clean and avoid smoking or drinking through a straw during the first 24 hours.
- Use cold compresses to minimize swelling.
- Stick to soft foods for the first few days.
Our team will check in and schedule follow-ups to make sure your healing is right on track.
