Sometimes a tooth can’t be saved—and when that happens, you need a dentist who will make the process as easy and stress-free as possible. At Ocean Vibe Dental, Dr. Alexandra Zabala provides gentle tooth extractions in Fort Myers, FL, combining compassion with the latest technology to ensure your comfort from start to finish.

Whether it’s a severely decayed tooth, a broken tooth, or wisdom teeth causing problems, we make extractions safe, smooth, and worry-free.

When Is a Tooth Extraction Necessary?

We always strive to save your natural teeth whenever possible, but in some cases, removing a tooth is the healthiest option. Extractions may be recommended if you have:

  • Severe tooth decay or infection
  • A tooth broken beyond repair
  • Advanced gum disease causing loose teeth
  • Impacted or painful wisdom teeth
  • Crowding that affects orthodontic treatment

After an exam and digital imaging, Dr. Zabala will explain your options and discuss whether extraction is the best step for your oral health.

Advanced Technology for a Safer, Easier Experience

At Ocean Vibe Dental, extractions are never a one-size-fits-all procedure. We use advanced technology to make the process precise and comfortable:

  • Digital X-rays and CBCT 3D imaging to evaluate roots and bone structure before extraction
  • Intraoral cameras to show you exactly what’s happening and why extraction is recommended
  • Sedation dentistry options to ease anxiety and ensure comfort

This modern approach helps minimize complications and speeds up healing.

Our Tooth Extraction Process

Step 1 – Gentle Consultation

Dr. Zabala will evaluate your tooth using digital scans, explain your options, and answer all your questions.

Step 2 – Comfortable Treatment

We use local anesthesia and sedation options when needed to ensure you remain relaxed and pain-free.

Step 3 – Safe Extraction

With careful technique and advanced tools, we remove the tooth efficiently while preserving surrounding bone and tissue.

Step 4 – Healing & Next Steps

You’ll leave with clear aftercare instructions. If replacement is needed, we’ll discuss restorative solutions such as dental implants, bridges, or partial dentures.

Wisdom Teeth Extractions

Wisdom teeth, or third molars, often don’t have enough room to grow in properly. This can cause pain, infections, or damage to nearby teeth. Using CBCT 3D imaging, Dr. Zabala can determine whether wisdom teeth need to be removed and plan the procedure for a safe, predictable outcome.

Sedation Options for Peace of Mind

We know extractions can cause anxiety. That’s why we offer sedation dentistry, including:

  • Nitrous oxide (laughing gas): A light, calming option for mild anxiety
  • Oral sedation: Helps you feel drowsy and relaxed
  • IV sedation (for complex cases): Provides a deeper level of comfort, closely monitored throughout

Your comfort is always our priority.

Tooth Replacement After Extraction

If a permanent tooth is removed, replacement may be important for maintaining your smile and bite. At Ocean Vibe Dental, we offer restorative solutions including:

  • Dental implants for the most natural, long-lasting result
  • Bridges to replace one or more teeth in a row
  • Partial dentures for affordable, removable solutions

By planning ahead, we can often begin your restoration process right after healing.
