When a tooth must come out, the focus is on making it as comfortable and straightforward as possible. Serving Richmond, TX and Fort Bend County.
At Richmond Dental Care, extractions are handled with a focus on patient comfort from start to finish. We use effective local anaesthesia, work efficiently, and provide clear aftercare instructions so your recovery is as quick and comfortable as possible.
We also discuss tooth replacement options at the same appointment so you have a clear plan from day one.
We ensure the treatment area is fully numb before starting. You may feel pressure, but you should not feel pain.
We perform both simple extractions of erupted teeth and surgical extractions of broken or impacted teeth.
We work slowly and communicate throughout the procedure. If you feel anxious, let us know — we adjust our approach accordingly.
After extraction, we discuss your options for replacing the tooth — including dental implants, bridges, and dentures.

Follow-Up & Replacement Planning
We accept most major PPO insurance plans and work closely with you to make the treatments more accessible. Our team will verify your benefits in advance, explain what your plan covers, and guide you through your options so you have a clear understanding of your costs before you begin.
From coverage checks to upfront communication, we focus on making the entire process simple, transparent, and free of surprises.
Apply a cold pack to the outside of your cheek in 20-minute intervals to reduce swelling.
Avoid straws, forceful rinsing, and smoking for 24–48 hours — this is what prevents dry socket.
Stick to yogurt, soup, and soft foods. Avoid chewing on the extraction site.
Severe pain after 48 hours, significant bleeding, or fever — call us immediately at (832) 612-2831.
