Tooth extractions in Coraopolis, PA, including wisdom teeth extractions,  are very common dental procedure, and they may be required for a number of reasons, such as the removal of wisdom teeth, or to prepare a patient for a full arch of dentures. Though it is a surgical procedure, tooth extractions are quite simple, and they are very safe. Our dentist 15108, Ryan Rupert, DMD also a trusted pediatric dentist in Robinson Township—has been performing gentle extractions for years. He will create a custom extraction plan that minimizes discomfort and ensures that you get the best possible care.

The most common type of tooth extraction is a “simple extraction”. During this procedure, your tooth and gum will be numbed. Next, your Robinson Township dentist will loosen your tooth and grab it with specialized tools to properly extract it. Surgical extraction is sometimes required when the tooth is positioned improperly, or has broken off at the gum line. 


While most simple tooth extractions do not require sedation, it’s always available at Robinson Township Smiles to ensure that you are safe and comfortable through the whole process, especially for more complex procedures like wisdom teeth extraction in Coraopolis, PA.

There are many different reasons why you may need a tooth extracted, but these are the most common: 


Severe tooth infection – An infected tooth may not be able to be saved with a root canal, and may require extraction to relieve pain and prevent the spread of bacteria.

"I like the ease of appointments. I broke a tooth on my birthday and called them on a Sunday and they were very willing to get me in ASAP because they knew I was in pain. Another example is when I initially went there I needed a cleaning, they even asked their hygienist to come in a half an hour early because my work schedule, to accommodate me. They are extremely friendly, they just make you feel very, very comfortable."
