A tooth extraction removes a tooth that is badly damaged, infected, crowded or loose. A simple extraction removes a visible tooth with instruments. A surgical extraction may involve a small incision or removing bone to reach a broken or impacted tooth.

Tooth extraction: specialist or general dentist?

General dentists do most simple extractions and many surgical ones. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons handle complex cases, such as deeply impacted teeth, teeth close to nerves, or patients who need IV sedation or general anesthesia.

10 of Akron's 76 clinics offering tooth extractions have an oral surgeon on staff. See oral surgeons in Akron

Typical reasons to see an oral surgeon: impacted or broken teeth, teeth near the sinus or nerves, medical conditions that complicate surgery, or when sedation is needed.

Is a tooth extraction covered by insurance or Medicaid in Ohio?
