Tooth Extractions
Gentle, Honest Care When a Tooth Just Can’t Be Saved
At Tidelands Dental, our goal is always to preserve your natural teeth — but sometimes, removing a tooth is the healthiest choice. Whether it’s due to infection, damage, or overcrowding, we perform tooth extractions with care, precision, and a focus on comfort — right here in our Surfside Beach office.
If you’re in pain, have a broken or infected tooth, or need an extraction before orthodontic or implant treatment, we’re here to make the process clear, gentle, and stress-free.

- t’s cracked below the gumline
