Tooth Extractions
in Fort Wayne
When a tooth must come out, we do it gently, preserving the bone so you have options later.
Medically reviewed by Dr. Mat Middleton, Co-Owner · Dentist.
In short
Tooth extractions at Middleton Family Dentistry in Fort Wayne are done gently, usually with local anesthesia in-office, using atraumatic techniques that preserve surrounding bone so implant options stay open later. Optional PRF placed in the socket speeds healing. Difficult surgical extractions and impacted wisdom teeth are referred to trusted oral surgeons.

Most extractions are done with local anesthesia in our office. We use atraumatic techniques that preserve surrounding bone, which matters enormously if an implant is in your future.
Difficult surgical extractions and impacted wisdom teeth we refer to trusted oral surgeons. No ego about what belongs where.
