Get the Care You Deserve for Great Dental Health
You probably don’t have dental surgery on your bucket list. However, it may be exactly what you need to get your smile back in great shape. Dr. Harrell has extensive training, and he has invested in technology to ensure better care for you and your smile.
We welcome you to visit our office for any of these procedures:
- Tooth Removals – We prefer to save teeth, but sometimes extracting them and replacing them is a better option. Taking out teeth can also make orthodontic care and dental implant placements easier.
- Wisdom Teeth Extractions – Impacted wisdom teeth can lead to several long-term issues. By taking them out, you can avoid a lifetime of dental problems.
- Bone Grafts – Bone loss in the jaw is common when someone has lost teeth. A bone graft can rebuild your jaw so it can support implants.
- Ridge Augmentations – This is another procedure to repair your jaw after damage due to bone loss or gum recession.
- Crown Lengthening – Removing some gum tissue makes teeth more visible when you smile.
You may have some anxiety about surgical dental care. To ease your mind and to keep you pain-free, we will ensure the area we are working on is numb, and we will be happy to provide sedation options.

Tooth extraction is often needed if a tooth is too damaged to repair or if it is damaging your other teeth. In some cases, you need to have teeth removed to make room for dentures or another dental restoration. If necessary, we’ll recommend a bone graft to ensure your jaw is strong enough to support dental implants.
We recommend not exercising at all for the first 24 hours after oral surgery. Trying to do too much too soon can actually prolong healing. Vigorous exercise can loosen the blood clot on an extraction site and lead to a painful dry socket. For the next few days, a patient should limit activities to low-impact exercises as a precaution.
Some general dentists offer only the most basic oral surgery, while others don’t perform any surgical procedures. Thanks to the skills and advanced training of our team at Clinton Harrell DDS, you’ll find a wide range of oral surgery, including teeth removal, bone grafts, and ridge augmentation.
