Relieve Your Pain With a Tooth Removal in Greenville
It’s our goal to save your natural teeth whenever possible. So, even if you are in a great deal of pain, we try to repair your tooth with a procedure like a root canal. In some cases, though, the best way to protect other healthy teeth is by extracting your diseased or severely damaged tooth. By choosing us for your tooth removal in Greenville, you can:
- Put an end to your pain and protect other teeth
- Visit us for an early morning or late evening appointment
- Chew and bite without discomfort
- Avoid more complicated oral health problems later down the road
Call 618-664-1483 to schedule your appointment.
Save Your Smile With an Extraction Procedure
Tooth decay, gum disease, and crowded teeth are some of the top reasons you may need an extraction. While oral surgery isn’t fun, our team works to keep it as comfortable as possible. Here’s how it works:
- Your dentist will examine your mouth, review your treatment plan, and answer any questions.
- We’ll numb the area before the extraction begins to ensure your comfort.
- After the procedure, we’ll provide aftercare instructions to support proper healing.
Once healed, we’ll review your restoration options. The best results often come from pairing a restoration with a dental implant, which acts as an artificial tooth root. Options include:
- Single crown with implant – replaces one missing tooth
- Implant-supported bridge – replaces multiple teeth without affecting healthy ones
If you need dentures, we also offer implant-retained, implant-supported, and traditional options.

What Our Patients Say
“I’ve usually felt very nervous while going to a dentist, but here I don’t because they talk you through everything to have a better idea of what to expect and understand what will happen in your future appointments.”
I was recommended to this office by a friend and have had nothing but positive experiences with Greenville Family Dentistry— Dr. McCullough and his staff are of the highest quality. I have children ages 9, 5, and 3, and all have been treated with patience and kindness during their visits.
“Dr. McCullough and his staff are top-notch and go above and beyond to ensure you are getting the best dental care and service. That is the reason I drive 2 hours to their office.”
“I know that I can be an impatient… big mouth from Boston… I wanna get in & get out… & with all my nonsense… every one there… EVERY one of the staff… & especially Dr. McCullough… treated me with patience & respect. They were professional, kind, & they didn’t gouge me financially with the price. Bada-Bing Bada-Boom”

You can feel confident our experienced dental team will do all we can to make sure your tooth removal is as comfortable as possible. We’ll take a set of digital X-rays to help us plan your procedure, then we’ll use an anesthetic to ensure the area we’re working on is fully numb.
In most cases, you can expect your extraction site to heal fully within approximately seven to 10 days. Your healing will depend partly on how well you follow the aftercare instructions we’ll give you. If you’re careful about what you eat and drink and avoid vigorous exercise for a few days, your healing will be quicker and more comfortable.
Even for a routine procedure like a tooth extraction, it is difficult to quote a price without first seeing you in our office. During your initial visit, we’ll examine your mouth and take X-rays to develop a plan for removing your tooth or teeth. Once we have more specific details, we can give you an accurate cost for your tooth removal.
