Put an End to Chronic Tooth Pain

Restore Comfort with Tooth Extractions

A toothache is almost always due to infection of the tooth or a related condition like gum disease. Teeth that are too damaged or diseased to be repaired with conservative measures may need to be extracted. While losing a natural tooth is never ideal, it is often the best way to preserve the health of your mouth. If you have been living with chronic tooth pain, seeking the expertise of our periodontists, Dr. John Darby and Dr. Timothy Johnson, can provide you with relief. Tooth extractions in Ocala and Crystal River, FL are one of our most common procedures, and we’re skilled in providing treatment that is comfortable and efficient. If a tooth extraction is needed, we offer ridge augmentation and dental implants to preserve your oral health long-term.

Reasons for Tooth Extractions

  • Advanced gum disease
  • Tooth infection
  • Fractured tooth

  • Impacted tooth
  • Dental trauma
  • Failed root canal

Restore Your Smile After Tooth Extractions

Tooth extractions naturally leave an empty tooth socket behind, which can affect the health of your jawbone and remaining teeth. Especially if more than one tooth is removed, we often recommend taking measures to preserve your jaw or replace your teeth to ensure long-term dental function. Ridge augmentation (sometimes called socket preservation) fills in the defects left after tooth extractions with bone grafting material to ensure a slower resorption process. Our advanced healing techniques also accelerate your recovery and the regeneration of new bone and soft tissue at the treatment site. Advanced healing techniques help the surgical site heal quickly and with less risk for infection. They also provide the ideal environment for placing dental implants. 

They also provide the ideal environment for placing dental implants. If you don’t qualify for immediate placement of implants after tooth extractions, our advanced bone grafting services can ensure you can receive dental implants after a much shorter recovery. Dental implants restore all parts of your teeth, from the root to the crown. By replacing extracted teeth with dental implants, you can enjoy a restored level of dental function and comfort as well as restored smile aesthetics. Even if you need tooth extractions, we have the solutions you need to once again feel confident in your smile!

A big thank you to Dr. Darby. From the first step in the door to the last step out, every aspect of my visit with Dr Darby and staff was exceptional. The people at the front office were very professional, friendly and communicative. I had a vertical fracture that was quite painful. The first dentist I saw nearly sent me through the roof during the initial exam and made me terrified to consider treatment there. I then went to Dr. Darby and that pain free experience was like night and day. I also liked that Dr Darby was very thorough and spent time explaining the issues, discussing my options and making sure I felt completely comfortable. My husband and I spend most of the year in California but if I need any other dental procedure like the one I had, I'll be back in Ocala to see Dr. Darby.

A visit to the Periodontist should not be scary for anyone. People think the worst and since I was a patient of Dr. Johnson this year, I want everyone to know that going to a periodontist is not all that bad!. I had sedation gum surgery and felt NO pain. There were several follow up appointments and I have to say that from the first visit to the last, I felt like I was well taken care of. The staff is wonderful. The Periodontist was fantastic. I just can't believe that I had dental gum surgery and it never hurt. So, don't delay, call Dr Johnson and meet him and his staff. They will take good care of you!

I was very pleased with the care I received from Dr. Darby. He took a lot of time with me to discuss what he thought my problem was, what the possible treatment options would be and then did exactly what he said he would do. He and his staff were very kind and thoughtful and always made me feel comfortable. When I needed to contact Dr. Darby about a prescription, he took my call himself on a Saturday afternoon and called in the prescription I needed right away. The surgery went very well, and I did not experience any pain or problems due to the techniques he used. I have been "released" as of today, as he has done all that was needed, and did not push any unnecessary treatments on me. I will highly recommend him.

I was apprehensive about the bone grafting on my implant, but I can tell you Dr. Johnson and his staff were caring and answered all my questions. I am so glad I had this procedure done. Not to much pain and I healed up nicely Thanks Doc, you are the best

I recently had periodontal surgery at Dr. Johnson's office and was totally satisfied with the office and the staff. Dr. Johnson was kind and gentle, making the surgery a pleasant experience. I never felt any pain, even during the recovery process. His staff was professional, friendly and caring. I would highly recommend this office.

My husband has been Dr. Darby's patient for the past 16 years. He is very attentive, thorough and professional. The treatment he is undergoing is lengthy in time and technically challenging, yet we have been very happy every step of the way with his care. I would recommend Dr. Darby to any of my friends and family .

Dr Johnson did an extraction, bone graft and dental implant. The procedures were easy and I had no pain for any procedure. Dr. Johnson is an excellent dentist, very professional and I would highly recommend him for any periodontal treatment. Best oral care I have ever received.
