Newbury St, MA
As always, I received an excellent cleaning from Hygienist, Jessica Ross, along with a thorough explanation of anything she observes. In addition to her dental care proficiency, her wonderful good nature and humor make my visit enjoyable and constructive.

I was able to get an appointment the same week even though they’re super busy. Selda did my dental cleaning and did an excellent job. I had a ton of staining from coffee that she took the extra time to completely get rid of! She had an excellent bedside manner and didn’t rush through things. They have an orthodontist that works there on Mondays too which is nice. They accept most insurance companies too. I was able to add on a fluoride treatment for $45 (insurance doesn’t cover this) to further protect my teeth too. Will continue to come back!

Friendly and knowledgeable staff explained all of the procedures and steps. The attending Doctor was professional, kind, and patient given dentists are most certainly not in my comfort zone. Would highly recommend across the board.
At Gentle Dental, every tooth extraction in Boston begins with a careful and thorough preliminary examination. Our experienced team uses advanced diagnostic tools, including digital X-rays and comprehensive oral evaluations, to assess the condition of your teeth and surrounding tissues.
Tooth extractions are often recommended when:
Before recommending tooth extraction in Boston, our dental professionals take time to identify the underlying cause and explore all possible treatment options. If extraction is the best course, we’ll guide you through each step with a personalized care plan focused on your comfort and recovery.
At Gentle Dental, we make every tooth extraction in Boston as smooth, safe, and stress-free as possible. Whether you're dealing with pain, infection, or impacted teeth, our skilled team ensures you receive the right type of care based on your individual needs.
Tooth extraction is a routine dental procedure used to remove a tooth that's damaged, decayed, or causing alignment issues. Before proceeding, our dentists will thoroughly examine your case and determine the best approach to ensure a comfortable experience with minimal disruption to your oral health.
The process begins with local anesthesia to numb the area. Once you're comfortable, the dentist gently loosens and removes the tooth using specialized instruments. The procedure typically takes less than an hour, and you'll receive clear post-operative instructions to aid healing.
Not always. Most tooth extractions in Boston are simple procedures. However, if the tooth is impacted, broken at the gum line, or not fully erupted (like wisdom teeth), a surgical extraction may be required. In such cases, the procedure may involve a small incision in the gum and sometimes sectioning the tooth into smaller pieces.
For particularly stubborn or fractured teeth, our dentists may use a technique called sectioning. This involves cutting the tooth into smaller pieces for easier, less traumatic removal—helping preserve surrounding bone and soft tissue.
At Gentle Dental, we believe that proper care after your tooth extraction in Boston is just as important as the procedure itself. Our team is committed to guiding you through a smooth recovery with detailed instructions and personalized support.
Following the procedure, you may experience mild swelling, bleeding, or discomfort—this is completely normal. To promote healing and avoid complications:
Most patients begin to feel better within 48–72 hours and recover fully within a week or two.
Every patient’s recovery is unique, which is why our Boston team provides personalized aftercare instructions tailored to your specific extraction type—whether simple or surgical. We’re also available for follow-up appointments to monitor healing and address any concerns.
If you're undergoing tooth extraction in Boston, Gentle Dental will be with you from diagnosis to recovery.
At Gentle Dental, we prioritize saving your natural teeth, but in certain situations, tooth extraction in Boston becomes necessary to preserve your oral and overall health. Below are the most common reasons for recommending an extraction:
Severe tooth decay can destroy a tooth from the inside out. When the decay reaches the pulp or compromises the tooth structure beyond repair, extraction is often the safest and most effective solution to prevent infection and relieve pain.
Advanced periodontal (gum) disease can erode the bone and soft tissues that support your teeth. When this damage is irreversible, extraction may be the best option to prevent the spread of infection and prepare the area for future restorative care.
Teeth that are unable to fully erupt—most commonly wisdom teeth—can cause pain, crowding, and infection. Surgical removal of impacted teeth helps protect adjacent teeth and reduces the risk of cysts or gum complications.

Tooth extraction and tooth pulling refer to the same procedure—removing a tooth from its socket. At our Boston practice, we ensure this is done with advanced techniques and minimal discomfort.
Oral surgery in Boston is typically required for complex cases like impacted teeth and broken roots or when a surgical approach is needed for safe removal.
You may need to extract a tooth if it's severely decayed, infected, or causing crowding. A dental exam and X-ray will determine if extraction is the best option.
At Gentle Dental in Boston, dental tooth extraction is performed under local anesthesia or sedation, making the procedure virtually painless.
Recovery from a tooth extraction typically takes 7 to 10 days, depending on whether it was a simple or surgical extraction and how well you follow aftercare instructions.
