Tooth Extraction & Wisdom Teeth Removal Near You
Painful Tooth? Problem Wisdom Teeth? We Can Help.
Tooth extractions, including wisdom tooth removal, are sometimes necessary to protect your oral health. Whether it’s due to decay, infection, crowding, or impaction, Dr. Jay (Dr. Sanjay Nigam) and the team at APEX Dental Implants and Family Dentistry Services provide gentle, stress-free tooth extractions using advanced techniques and personalized care.
When Is Tooth Extraction Necessary?
You may need a tooth extraction if you have:
- Persistent pain or swelling from wisdom teeth
- Severe decay or damage beyond repair
- Gum disease causing tooth mobility
- Overcrowding before orthodontic treatment
- Impacted or infected wisdom teeth
- Broken teeth that cannot be restored
What Are Wisdom Teeth?
Wisdom teeth are the third set of molars that usually emerge between ages 17 and 25. They often cause problems like crowding, pain, or impaction, and may need to be removed even if they’re not currently causing symptoms.
Dr. Jay will evaluate your oral health and lifestyle goals to recommend the best option for you.

Tooth Extraction & Wisdom Teeth Removal Frequently Asked Questions:
No. We use local anesthesia and offer sedation to ensure the procedure is as comfortable as possible. Most patients report only pressure—not pain—during the process.
Most patients recover within 3–7 days. Wisdom teeth or surgical extractions may require slightly more recovery time.
Not always. If they are healthy, fully erupted, and properly aligned, removal may not be necessary. However, most wisdom teeth cause crowding, decay, or pain and are best removed preventively.
Stick to soft foods like yogurt, applesauce, soup, mashed potatoes, and smoothies for the first few days. Avoid hot, spicy, or crunchy foods.
A dry socket occurs when the blood clot at the extraction site dislodges, exposing bone and nerves. Avoid using straws, smoking, or vigorous rinsing for at least 48 hours post-extraction.
Most dental insurance plans cover extractions, including wisdom teeth. Our team will help you check your coverage and maximize your benefits.
