Tooth Extractions


Our experienced dentist may recommend a tooth extraction if your tooth has been too badly damaged to be restored. Dr. Thomas Yun will carefully evaluate your damaged tooth or teeth to determine if this is the best option for you, and if so, he will remove the tooth as gently as possible and work with you to find the right type of replacement for your smile. Call Randall Meadows Dental Center at 847-888-0011 to learn more about tooth extractions in Elgin, Illinois, and schedule an appointment.

Tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth. While we strive to avoid the need to remove a tooth whenever possible, certain conditions may make tooth extraction the most effective option for returning your smile to good health and function. Following the tooth extraction, we are happy to provide you with one of our excellent tooth replacement treatments to restore your smile to optimal health, beauty, and function.

Several conditions may necessitate tooth extraction. Among these are:

  • Severe infection that has destroyed a significant portion of the tooth and supporting bone structure

  • Serious decay that has damaged a tooth beyond repair, making a successful restoration impossible

  • Crowding caused by too many teeth to properly fit in the mouth

Our dentist and team use great care and skill when performing a tooth extraction to ensure that your experience is as comfortable and painless as possible. We will also provide you with detailed post-treatment care instructions so that you can properly take care of your smile as it heals.
