Gentle care for a healthy smile

Morgan Hill: (408) 778-7700

Comfortable tooth extractions when you need them most

At Lotus Dental Studio, our goal is always to preserve your natural teeth whenever possible. However, when a tooth is severely damaged, infected, or causing crowding, tooth extraction may be the healthiest option for your overall smile and well-being.

Our Gilroy & Morgan Hill tooth extraction dentist provides precise care using modern techniques and a compassionate approach to minimize discomfort and support fast healing. Whether you need a simple removal or a more complex extraction, we’re here to walk you through every step with care and clarity.

Why you might need a tooth extraction

  • Severe decay or infection beyond repair
  • Advanced gum disease compromising tooth stability
  • Impacted wisdom teeth causing pain or crowding
  • Orthodontic preparation for braces or aligners
  • Cracked or broken teeth that can’t be restored
  • To relieve overcrowding and improve bite alignment

Gentle

We use advanced techniques and local anesthetics to ensure a calm, pain-free procedure.

Skilled

Our dentists have extensive experience with both simple and surgical extractions.

Healing-Focused

We provide clear aftercare instructions and offer follow-up care to support fast healing.

Restorative Options

We’ll help you plan next steps — like dental implants, bridges, or dentures — to restore your smile post-extraction.

How It Works

  • Treatment planning: We’ll examine the tooth with X-rays and determine whether extraction is necessary.
  • Comfort comes first: We use gentle, precise techniques to minimize trauma to surrounding tissue.
  • Healing support: We’ll send you home with detailed care instructions, pain management tips, and guidance for a smooth recovery.
  • Future planning: If needed, we’ll help you explore options for replacing the extracted tooth to maintain oral health and function.
