Quick, Painless Extractions

While our focus at First Class Smiles is on preventative care, we perform tooth extractions on a regular basis. These can be preventative or restorative, and are usually followed up with a dental implant.

In the case that an extraction is necessary, Dr. Victor Grandinetti, Dr. Paul Morrison, and our team will talk to you about options and work with you to make the process as quick and painless as possible.

Extractions at First Class Smiles

We’re always looking to help you avoid an extraction by keeping your oral health in good shape. We will clean your teeth on a regular basis, discuss a healthy diet with you, and treat gum disease, cavities, and infections to the best of our abilities in order to keep your teeth healthy and intact.

As your general dentists, Dr. Grandinetti, Dr. Morrison, or another expert dentist will work to restore your tooth if it has been damaged. This can help you to maintain your natural teeth for years to come. However, our team can easily and painlessly perform a tooth extraction if it becomes necessary.

Signs You Might Need a Tooth Extraction

  • If you feel intense discomfort in your tooth or your jaw, give us a call immediately, as this could be a sign of a dental abscess or severe infection.
  • If it hurts when you bite down or chew, this can also be an indication of a cavity or infection.
  • Other signs like pus or bleeding indicate that you should call (847) 264-4152 and schedule an appointment with our Des Plaines dentist’s office right away.
