We Provide Gentle Dental Extractions
At ORA4X Dental Implants in Elk Grove, CA, we understand that tooth extraction is never a first choice, but sometimes it’s necessary to protect your oral and overall health. Dr. Devan Dalla, a leading implant specialist, performs gentle, precise extractions for teeth affected by severe decay, periodontal disease, fractures, or impacted wisdom teeth. Using advanced digital X-rays, we thoroughly evaluate whether a tooth can be saved—when possible, root canal therapy is a highly successful alternative to extraction. In some cases, extractions are necessary for orthodontic treatment, full-mouth dental implants, or to allow permanent teeth to emerge properly. While our goal is always to preserve your natural teeth, removing a damaged, infected, or abscessed tooth can prevent complications, protect surrounding teeth, and restore oral health. At ORA4X, we prioritize patient comfort, offering local anesthesia and sedation options to ensure a stress-free, painless experience. If you need a tooth extraction in Elk Grove, CA, trust Dr. Dalla’s expertise for a gentle, safe procedure that gets you back to a healthy, pain-free smile.
Impacted Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, often become partially or fully impacted due to limited space, obstruction, or improper positioning at the back of the mouth. Impacted wisdom teeth are difficult to clean, making them prone to bacteria buildup, decay, swelling, infection, gum disease, and cyst formation, which can damage nearby teeth and jawbone. At ORA4X Dental Implants in Elk Grove, CA, Dr. Devan Dalla provides gentle, precise wisdom tooth extractions under local anesthesia and sedation to ensure a comfortable, pain-free experience. In more complex cases, we may refer patients to a trusted oral and maxillofacial surgeon for specialized care. If you’re experiencing pain, swelling, or discomfort from impacted wisdom teeth, early removal is key to preventing serious complications.

Our Tooth Extraction Process
At ORA4X Dental Implants in Elk Grove, CA, we make tooth extractions as comfortable, efficient, and stress-freeas possible. During your initial consultation, Dr. Devan Dalla will evaluate your oral health, symptoms, and diagnostic imaging to determine if an extraction is necessary. We accept insurance from leading providers and offer flexible financing options to make treatment accessible. If extraction is the best option, we’ll schedule your procedure before you leave our office.
For simple extractions, we use local anesthesia to fully numb the area, though we also offer sedation options for added comfort. Most patients feel only gentle pressure as we use an elevator tool to loosen the tooth before carefully removing it with forceps, minimizing any impact on surrounding teeth, bone, and gum tissue. Because our team routinely performs extractions, the procedure is fast, precise, and over before you know it. If you need a tooth extraction in Elk Grove, CA, trust Dr. Dalla’s expertise for a safe, smooth experience.
What To Expect After A Tooth Extraction
At ORA4X Dental Implants in Elk Grove, CA, we prioritize your comfort and smooth recovery after a tooth extraction. Before you leave, Dr. Devan Dalla and our team will review detailed post-operative care instructions to help you heal properly and avoid complications. One of the most important steps in the healing process is the formation of a protective blood clot over the extraction site. If this clot becomes dislodged or fails to form, it can expose the underlying bone and nerves, leading to a painful condition called dry socket. While dry socket occurs in only 0.5–5.6% of simple extractions, the risk increases to 30% after wisdom tooth removal. Although it’s not entirely preventable, you can significantly reduce your risk by following our post-extraction care guidelines. Whether you’re recovering from a simple tooth extraction or wisdom tooth removal, our Elk Grove team is here to support you every step of the way.

Upgrade Your Missing Smile After Tooth Extraction
At ORA4X Dental Implants in Elk Grove, CA, we strongly recommend tooth replacement after extraction to prevent shifting of adjacent teeth and restore your smile’s function, health, and aesthetics. While dental bridges can replace missing teeth and help maintain bite alignment, they do not prevent bone loss in the empty socket. Dental implants, on the other hand, are the only permanent tooth replacement option that not only restores your smile but also stimulates new bone growth, preventing jawbone deterioration. Without intervention, bone loss can begin as early as six weeks after extraction, which is why we suggest scheduling a follow-up visit once your gums have healed to explore the best tooth replacement options for you. Dr. Devan Dalla and our expert team specialize in customized, long-lasting dental implant solutions to ensure you regain a confident, fully functional smile.
