The thought of having a tooth pulled can be daunting. At Cambridge Dental Group in Toms River, we believe that tooth extraction, when necessary, should be a comfortable, stress-free, and positive step toward restoring your oral health. Dr. Isaac V. Perle and Dr. Revah, with their decades of combined experience and gentle approach, are here to provide you with exceptional, pain-free tooth extraction services in a calming and modern environment.
While our primary goal is always to save your natural teeth, there are situations where an extraction is the best course of action to alleviate pain, prevent infection from spreading, and pave the way for a healthier smile. Using state-of-the-art technology and advanced techniques, we ensure your procedure is as quick, comfortable, and predictable as possible. You are in expert, caring hands.
A tooth extraction is the careful removal of a tooth from its socket in the bone. Our dentists only recommend this procedure when a tooth is too damaged or diseased to be saved by other treatments like fillings, root canals, or crowns.
Common reasons you may need a tooth extraction include:
Cambridge Dental Group is fully equipped to handle all types of tooth extractions, from simple to complex surgical procedures. You can find all the expert care you need right here in our Toms River, NJ office.
A simple extraction is performed on a tooth that is visible in the mouth, has a single root, and is intact.
This is a more complex procedure required for a tooth that has not fully erupted, has broken off at the gum line, or has multiple or curved roots.
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last to erupt and often cause problems due to a lack of space.
After an extraction, the jawbone that once supported the tooth can begin to deteriorate. If you are considering a dental implant to replace the missing tooth, preserving this bone is crucial.
We understand that anxiety often accompanies a tooth extraction. That’s why we have built our entire process around your physical and emotional comfort.
Step 1: A Thorough, Compassionate Consultation
We never rush into a procedure. We begin with a comprehensive examination, including digital imaging, to assess the tooth’s condition and the surrounding bone structure. We will discuss your diagnosis, explain why an extraction is recommended, walk you through the entire process, and answer all of your questions. Your informed consent and comfort are our top priorities.
Step 2: Pain-Free Procedure with Advanced Anesthesia
We are experts in administering local anesthesia to ensure you feel no pain during the extraction. For patients with higher levels of anxiety, we also offer dental sedation options to help you feel deeply relaxed and at ease throughout your visit.
Step 3: Expert Surgical Technique
Our dentists’ decades of experience mean they possess a gentle, precise touch. They work efficiently to complete the extraction with minimal tissue trauma, which leads to faster healing and less post-operative discomfort for you.
Step 4: Clear Aftercare Instructions & Support
Your recovery is just as important as the procedure itself. We will provide you with clear, written post-operative instructions and a care kit. Our team is also available to answer any questions you may have during your healing process.

Initial healing, where the gum tissue closes, typically takes 1-2 weeks. The underlying bone will continue to heal for several months. Most patients can return to normal activities within a day or two.
Bite gently on the gauze pad for 30-60 minutes, rest for 24 hours, avoid rinsing or spitting forcefully for the first day, and use an ice pack to minimize swelling. After 24 hours, rinse gently with warm salt water. Stick to soft foods and avoid using a straw.
