At Georgia Facial & Oral Surgery, we provide expert surgical tooth extraction services to address various dental issues, including impacted teeth, severe decay, and preparation for dental implants. Our team, led by Dr. Tyler Haeffs, ensures a comfortable and efficient experience using the latest technology and techniques.
Understanding Surgical Tooth Extractions
Surgical tooth extraction involves the removal of a tooth that cannot be easily accessed or extracted using standard dental tools. This procedure is necessary in several situations:
- Impacted Teeth: Often related to wisdom teeth, impacted teeth are those that fail to fully emerge from the gum line due to lack of space or misalignment. This can lead to pain, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth. Surgical extraction helps prevent these complications.
- Severe Decay or Damage: When a tooth is extensively decayed or damaged beyond repair, surgical extraction may be required. This prevents the spread of infection and prepares the area for restorative procedures, such as implants or bridges.
- Preparation for Orthodontic Treatment: In some cases, teeth may need to be removed to create space for proper alignment during orthodontic treatment.
- Preparation for Dental Implants: Extraction may be necessary to remove a damaged tooth or remnants before placing a dental implant.
Our Surgical Approach
At Georgia Facial & Oral Surgery, we prioritize patient comfort and safety. Our state-of-the-art facility utilizes Cone Beam 3D Imaging Technology to provide detailed images of your dental structures. This allows for precise planning and execution of the extraction procedure. Dr. Haeffs and his team are skilled in both simple and complex extractions, ensuring that even the most challenging cases are handled with care.
We offer various anesthesia options, including local anesthesia, IV sedation, and general anesthesia, depending on the complexity of the procedure and the patient’s comfort level. Our team works closely with each patient to determine the most appropriate anesthesia plan, ensuring a painless and stress-free experience

Post-Extraction Care
Proper aftercare is crucial for a smooth recovery. Our team provides comprehensive post-operative instructions, including managing pain, preventing infection, and promoting healing.
