Tooth Extractions

Dr. Paul Chaiken and Dr. Robert Kurtz may recommend a tooth extraction if your tooth is severely damaged. This oral surgery procedure is often the first step to restoring your oral health and smile. Call North Dental Professionals today to make an appointment with our dentists and learn more about tooth extractions in Chicago and Skokie, Illinois.

Tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth. While we strive to avoid the need to remove a tooth whenever possible, certain conditions may make tooth extraction the most effective option for returning your smile to good health and function. Following the tooth extraction, we are happy to provide you with one of our excellent tooth replacement treatments to restore your smile to optimal health, beauty and function.

Several conditions may necessitate tooth extraction. Among these are:

Severe infection that has destroyed a significant portion of the tooth and supporting bone structure
Serious decay that has damaged a tooth beyond repair, making a successful restoration impossible
Crowding caused by too many teeth to properly fit in the mouth
Our dentists and team use great care and skill when performing a tooth extraction to ensure that your experience is as comfortable and painless as possible. We will also provide you with detailed post-treatment care instructions so that you can properly take care of your smile as it heals. For more information on tooth extraction and to schedule your personalized consultation at our friendly dental office, we invite you to call or visit us today. We are committed to improving your smile!

“Dr. Chaiken and his team at North Dental Professionals are superb! I came to the Chicago location as a new patient because I was in extreme pain. Dr. Chaiken was compassionate and got me out of pain quickly. I needed a root canal and surprisingly it was a great experience. They also take my PPO dental insurance. I will be a patient for life!”

“Great dentist and staff! I have been going there for 30 years. My children went there when at home as well. We have all had great service, careful care of our dental health. The entire staff is warm, welcoming and efficient. Dr. Chaiken is conservative in his work, not pushing for things that are extreme for the situation. My teeth have been healthy and happy. Thank you so much!”
