FAQs
Teeth removal often comes with questions. This FAQ covers the most common concerns so you know what to expect before, during, and after treatment.
You choose the sedation level—local, nitrous, oral, or IV. Most patients feel nothing and remember little.
Plan on 2–3 days of rest; swelling peaks at 48 hrs then drops quickly. We give you written instructions, ice packs, and a 24-hr emergency line.
Not always. After a 3-D scan we’ll show you which teeth are truly problematic and let you decide the safest, most affordable plan.
Silent impactions can damage neighboring roots or create cysts. We’ll assess risk vs. benefit so you make an informed, future-proof choice.
Most PPO dental plans pay 50–80 %. We file your claim the same day; uninsured patients receive our exact cash fee and optional 0 % financing.
