Having a tooth extraction isn’t exactly something that anyone ever really wants to resort to. However, having a tooth pulled can sometimes be necessary if a tooth infection has gone too deep, or if other remedial treatments have not been able to successfully stop the need for tooth extraction.
When you have a chipped, broken, infected, or painful tooth, getting it fixed right away is important for your health and comfort. Sometimes that means removal, but we offer comprehensive tooth pain solutions at OKC Smiles. Call today to request an appointment or to learn more about tooth extractions.

Benefits of Tooth Extraction with Oklahoma City Dentist
If your toothache has become bad enough that you need a tooth pulled, it can in fact be beneficial. Some of the benefits of having a tooth extraction for a severe toothache or other dental issue include:
Toothache Relief| Having a constant toothache can be both distracting and discomforting, not to mention potentially dangerous for your overall oral health. Having the tooth pulled can put a stop to your toothache and get you back on track.
Removal of infection-causing bacteria | By removing the host of the infection (your tooth) with a professional dental extraction, our team can help get your teeth to a better place. Keeping an infected tooth that should be extracted can result in infection spreading further in your mouth, and into other teeth too.
A new tooth through restorative dentistry | After your tooth has been removed, you don’t have to worry about having a gap in your smile—restorative dentistry can help you keep the beautiful smile you desire! You’ll be able to eat, chew, speak, and drink with no issues with our tooth replacement options.
Aesthetic results | With a missing tooth, you may feel hesitant to show off your smile. You may want to hide your teeth because you don’t like how they look. With tooth extractions and the accompanying replacement tooth options, you’ll feel good about your mouth again.
If you require a tooth pulled, our Oklahoma City team has the experience, equipment, and know-how to make sure that your tooth extraction is safe, comfortable, and effective. We are proud to provide top-quality care to all of our patients, especially those with tooth extraction needs. We work hard so that each patient who visits us from the Moore and Norman, OK, area is satisfied with their tooth removal results and can move forward with working towards maintaining good oral health.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Do you or someone in your family need to have their wisdom teeth removed? While wisdom teeth removal is a common procedure, it does require a skilled hand. When getting wisdom teeth taken out, you want to choose a dentist who has experience with oral surgeries and can ensure a quick, effective process.
At OKC Smiles, we provide wisdom teeth removal services in the Oklahoma City area. Removing wisdom teeth before they erupt is the best way to prevent the risk of dental problems, but we can also remove wisdom teeth that have already grown in.
Discover more about wisdom tooth removal in a comfortable, welcoming dental office; call today to request an appointment.
Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to grow in. They are also referred to as the “third molars.” However, while humans hundreds of years ago used their wisdom teeth to be able to grind down certain types of food, most people today don’t have big enough mouths to support wisdom teeth. While not all individuals even get wisdom teeth at all, most people have wisdom teeth form in their teens.
When wisdom teeth start coming in, they often don’t have enough room to grow and can become impacted. This can cause pain and discomfort and could lead to a tooth infection or other dental problems. Your dentist may recommend wisdom tooth extraction even before your teeth are impacted, just to avoid potential dental issues down the road.
We offer wisdom teeth extraction procedures right here at OKC Smiles with a team you already know and trust.
How the Process Works
The wisdom teeth extraction process is relatively simple and can be performed in just one visit. During the procedure, local anesthesia will be applied to minimize any pain or discomfort during the process. For patients who are nervous about their procedure or who experience dental anxiety, we are happy to offer sedation dentistry options as well.
If you or a loved one are in need of wisdom tooth extraction services or have questions about the wisdom teeth removal process, please give us a call to schedule a visit.
Why Get Wisdom Teeth Removed?
While some people don’t need to have their wisdom teeth removed, the average person will benefit from the removal process. Getting wisdom teeth removed ensures your mouth has enough room to support all of the teeth. Wisdom teeth often cause dental health issues, such as infection, crooked teeth, and bite problems.
It’s best to get a wisdom tooth consultation to assess the state of your mouth and determine if they need to be removed. We will walk you through the process to make sure you feel at ease.

Going to the dentist is something I take very serious, I've always believed your smile is everything, therefore, I'm quite picky with finding a dentist. My dentist of many years had retired and I had tried a couple that I simply wasn't happy with at all before I happened onto OKC Smiles, and I couldnt be happier! Both dr's are extremely knowledgeable and have great bedside manner..very down to earth! The staff is simply a class act no matter who you have the privilege of working on you!!

Today,, I took my buddy Jake to OKC Smiles, and I have to say—I was genuinely impressed. Jake has been through a lot, and not everywhere treats him with the respect and kindness he deserves. But here, they truly saw him as a human being, with dignity and worth.
The staff showed compassion, patience, and professionalism from start to finish. They didn’t rush him, talk down to him, or act like he was a burden. Instead, they treated him like family. That kind of care is rare.
Honestly, I’m seriously considering switching to OKC Smiles myself. It’s not just about teeth—it’s about how you treat people. And these folks get it right.
Thank you for making today a great day.

I had some cosmetic dental work done with Dr. Phan and I could not be more pleased with the results. I spent years of my life feeling insecure about my teeth and uneven gum lines. My smile looks so much better now that my teeth appear whiter, longer, and even. Not to mention the fact that my gums are normal!! I can finally smile and laugh without feeling the need to cover my mouth. The staff at OKC Smiles are amazing. They have made me feel like more than just a number with the way they remember my name and are always so kind. Everyone from the dental assistants to the schedulers to the finance people are pleasant to be around. I normally do not leave reviews at places, but it would not feel right for me to not share my positive experiences with others after the way OKC Smiles went above and beyond to meet my needs.
