What is a tooth extraction?

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.

3 of Berkeley's 45 clinics offering tooth extractions have an oral surgeon on staff. See oral surgeons in Berkeley

Do general dentists in Berkeley do tooth extractions?

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 California?

Many dental insurance plans cover extractions as basic care, often at 70–80% after the deductible. Surgical extractions may be billed at a different rate. Medicaid commonly covers medically necessary extractions; adult benefits vary by state.

Does a tooth extraction hurt?

The area is numbed with local anesthetic, so most patients feel pressure rather than sharp pain during an extraction. Soreness and swelling for a few days afterward are common. Your dentist will give aftercare instructions, and pain that gets worse after day three should be checked.

Which Berkeley tooth extraction dentists are open on Saturday?

8 of 45 Berkeley clinics offering tooth extractions list Saturday hours, including Bayside Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Berkeley Dental & Lab and Total Health Dental Care Welcome Center.
