Wisdom Tooth Extraction New York

Experience gentle tooth extractions with our skilled team, ensuring minimal discomfort and promoting a smooth recovery for optimal oral health.

What Are Wisdom Teeth?

The very thought of having their teeth pulled frightens many people. But tooth extractions are not the painful procedure you may believe them to be. Once the dentist numbs your tooth and gum, you won’t feel anything. Also, it’s not only children who need to go through this procedure; adults also need to have their teeth extracted for a variety of reasons, such as when a tooth is irreparably damaged or decayed.

Results You Can Trust

Our work goes beyond transforming smiles—it’s about empowering confidence and ensuring every result exceeds your expectations with consistency and reliability.

Reasons to Extract Teeth

You may need to have a tooth extracted for one or more of the following reasons:

  • The tooth is broken or damaged by decay. If the tooth cannot be fixed with a filling, dental crown, or some other way, then an extraction will be needed.
  • The tooth is so loose it can’t be saved — not even with bone-replacement surgery.
  • Your child has an extra tooth that blocks other teeth from coming in.
  • Your child’s baby teeth do not fall out naturally, preventing the permanent teeth from coming in.
  • Third molars, popularly known as wisdom teeth, often must be extracted. In most people, they come in when they are in their late teens or early 20s.
  • Wisdom teeth become impacted. The teeth may be coming in on an angle, causing pain. When a wisdom tooth emerges partially a flap of skin called an operculum may form over the tooth. This will make the tooth hard to clean which can lead to bacteria that will cause infection, known as pericoronitis.
  • If you are getting braces, one or more teeth may need to be extracted to allow space for the teeth that are being moved.
  • If you are getting radiation to your head and neck, one or more of the teeth lying in the field of radiation may need to be extracted.
  • Cancer drugs weaken the immune system. If you are taking cancer drugs, then you may need to have the affected teeth extracted.
  • Organ transplants weaken the immune system. If you have had an organ transplant, then you may need to have the infected teeth extracted.

Treatment Options for TMJ and Facial Pain

Abscesses

A dental abscess is a painful infection near a tooth’s root or in the gums. It’s often caused by advanced tooth decay, gum disease, or a failed root canal.

Common symptoms include:

  • Throbbing pain that spreads to your ear or neck
  • Swelling or a bubble of pus near the tooth
  • Bad breath or sensitivity to chewing

How We Help?

We’ll drain the abscess to relieve pain, prescribe antibiotics to clear the infection, and treat the underlying issue with a root canal or extraction, if necessary.

Infections

Infections, like advanced gum disease (periodontitis), can slowly worsen and become an emergency if ignored. It may even lead to tooth loss.

Here are some symptoms to watch out for:

  • Gum pain or swelling
  • Loose teeth
  • Fever or feeling unwell

How We Help?

We clean the area to stop the infection from spreading and may recommend antibiotics or deep cleaning to restore your oral health.

Traumatic Dental Injuries

Traumatic dental injuries include teeth that are knocked out, partially dislodged, or fractured due to accidents, sports injuries, or falls.

Contact us if you have these symptoms:

  • A missing tooth or one out-of-place
  • Pain, bleeding, or swelling

How We Help?

  • Knocked-out tooth: Handle it carefully by the crown, rinse it gently, and keep it in milk or a salt solution until you see us. Teeth can often be saved if treated quickly.
  • Dislodged tooth: Apply a cold compress for swelling and visit us ASAP to stabilize the tooth.

Cracked, Chipped, or Broken Teeth

Teeth can crack or break from accidents, biting hard foods, or decay. Trying to open bottles with the teeth is another common reason for chipped or broken teeth.

Seek urgent dental care if:

  • Pain when chewing or biting
  • Sensitivity to temperature or sweets
  • Visible tooth damage

How We Help?

We repair minor chips with bonding, while deeper cracks may need crowns or root canals to protect the tooth and reduce the pain.

Lost or Loose Fillings, Crowns, Onlays, Veneers, and Bridges

Dental restorations like fillings, crowns, or bridges can sometimes loosen or fall out, leaving your tooth exposed and at risk of damage or decay.

Symptoms include:

  • Sensitivity to air, liquids, or food
  • Discomfort or pain in the exposed tooth

How We Help?

We’ll replace or repair the restoration quickly to protect your tooth. In the meantime, use dental cement or sugar-free gum to cover the area.

Jaw Pain

Sudden or severe jaw pain could mean TMJ (temporomandibular joint) issues, an infection, or even a fractured jaw.

Common symptoms:

  • Pain in the jaw joint
  • Difficulty moving your mouth
  • Swelling or tenderness

How We Help?

We’ll determine the cause and create a treatment plan, which may include medication, splints, or surgery to relieve the pain.

Swollen Gums

Swollen gums could be a sign of infection or an abscess.

Symptoms include:

  • Red, puffy, or tender gums
  • Pain while chewing
  • Pus or bad taste in the mouth

How We Help?

We’ll clean the area, drain any infection, and prescribe antibiotics if necessary to stop the swelling and protect your smile.

Toothaches

Toothaches are often caused by decay or infections and can escalate quickly. Pay extra attention if the toothache comes on suddenly or worsens quickly.

Other symptoms:

  • Sharp or throbbing pain
  • Swelling or redness around the tooth
  • Sensitivity to temperature or pressure

How We Help?

We’ll diagnose the problem and provide the right solution, whether it’s a filling, root canal, or extraction, to ease your pain and save the tooth.

I’ve been coming here for about 10 years now and the professionalism, service, and knowledge are all top notch. Any time I have had to have any procedure outside of a cleaning it has always been clearly explained both verbally and visually which is something I truly appreciate

Doctor Becker and his office staff are true professionals. They’re located in the Financial District of NYC, and I was introduced to them when I worked in the area. Very thorough, and gives great service. I relocated out of town for four years, and returned as a patient of their office once I began working in NYC again. One of the reasons I’m happy to be back in NY.
