Safe, Gentle, and Pain-Free Care
Sometimes, saving a tooth isn’t possible, and extraction becomes the best option to protect your oral health. Tooth extraction is a common dental procedure used to remove teeth that are severely damaged, decayed, or causing crowding. Modern dentistry ensures the procedure is safe, gentle, and virtually pain-free.
At Ethos Modern Dental, your comfort is our top priority. Our skilled dentists use advanced techniques and local anesthesia to make the process smooth and stress-free.
