Gentle, stress-free extractions
Sometimes, removing a tooth is the best way to protect your overall oral health. Whether due to decay, infection, crowding, or trauma, our Chicago dentist provides gentle tooth extractions with a focus on comfort and care.
We understand that dental procedures can cause anxiety, which is why we use DentalVibe — an advanced technology that minimizes discomfort by gently vibrating the surrounding tissues during anesthesia delivery. This technique significantly reduces pain perception, allowing for a more comfortable and stress-free extraction experience.
When is a tooth extraction necessary?
Tooth extractions may be needed for many reasons, including severe decay, infection, gum disease, or wisdom tooth complications. Removing a problematic tooth can relieve pain, prevent further dental issues, and improve your overall oral health.
At Cusp Dental, we carefully evaluate each case to determine if extraction is the best solution. If needed, we’ll guide you through the process and discuss tooth replacement options to restore your smile.
Compassionate care for a stress-free experience
We know that the thought of a tooth extraction can feel overwhelming. That’s why our team at Cusp Dental takes a gentle, patient-centered approach to ensure your comfort every step of the way. From your initial consultation to post-extraction care, we prioritize clear communication, pain management, and a stress-free experience.
Let us help you feel at ease with expert care in a welcoming environment.

How long does it take to heal from an extraction?
Healing times vary, but most patients recover within a few days to a week. Following post-extraction care instructions will help speed up the healing process.

What should I eat after a tooth extraction?
Stick to soft foods like yogurt, mashed potatoes, and smoothies for the first few days. Avoid hot, crunchy, or spicy foods to prevent irritation.

Most patients can resume normal activities within a day or two. However, we recommend taking it easy for at least 24 hours to allow your body to start the healing process.
