Tooth Extractions in Jacksonville, FL
At EverySmile Dental Riverside, our goal is always to preserve your natural teeth whenever possible. But when a tooth is too damaged, infected, or decayed to be saved, extraction may be the healthiest option for your smile and overall oral health.
We understand that having a tooth removed can feel intimidating — especially if you're in pain or haven’t been to the dentist in a while. Our team provides gentle, honest care in a welcoming, supportive environment. Whether it’s an emergency or part of a treatment plan, you can trust us to put your comfort first.
As a trusted dentist in Jacksonville FL, we’re here to help you move forward without fear.
When Is Tooth Extraction Necessary?
We may recommend extraction if a tooth is:
- Severely decayed and beyond repair
- Infected and unresponsive to root canal therapy
- Fractured below the gumline
- Causing crowding or bite issues
- Preventing proper eruption of another tooth
- Supporting a denture or implant treatment plan
We also perform planned extractions for orthodontic or prosthetic purposes — always with your long-term health in mind.
What to Expect During a Tooth Extraction
- Comprehensive Evaluation
We’ll assess your tooth with digital X-rays and determine whether extraction is necessary or if an alternative treatment is possible. - Sedation Options
If you’re anxious, we offer oral conscious sedation to help you stay calm and comfortable throughout the visit. - Gentle Removal
We numb the area fully before carefully loosening and removing the tooth. Most simple extractions take just minutes. - Aftercare & Recovery
You’ll receive detailed instructions to promote healing and reduce the risk of complications. Most patients resume light activity the next day.
Tooth Replacement Options

Initial healing takes 1–2 days. Full healing may take 1–2 weeks. We’ll give you easy aftercare instructions.
What should I eat after the procedure?
Soft foods like yogurt, soup, and smoothies for the first 24–48 hours. Avoid straws, smoking, and hard foods during healing.
Is a replacement always needed?

Yes. We perform wisdom teeth removal here in-office — no outside referrals needed.
