Stress-Free Tooth Extractions in Sanford
Specialists in Tooth Extractions, Replacement & Restoration
We don't just extract teeth - we restore your smile with custom treatment plans that include dental implants, bridges, or implant-supported dentures.
At Sanford Dental Excellence, tooth extractions are never our first choice - but when a tooth is beyond saving, a carefully planned extraction can be the first step towards restoring your oral health, comfort, and confidence.
We specialize in comprehensive tooth replacement solutions. We focus on not just extracting the tooth, but on replacing it with a durable, natural-looking restoration that supports long-term function and aesthetics.
Our dedicated team, led by Dr. George Mitrogogos, is committed to providing a comfortable, pain-free experience tailored to each patient's unique needs.

Sanford Tooth Extraction & Replacement Specialist
Dr. Mitrogogos understands that patients never want to lose a tooth, but sometimes this is the best decision. If a tooth is severely infected or past the point where is can be restored, it may have to be removed.
Dr. Mitrogogos is highly experienced in removing even the most difficult teeth with little or no pain.
Whether you’re facing chronic tooth pain, infection, or complications from overcrowding, we’re here to help you feel confident and comfortable through every step of the process. Our award-winning team specializes in gentle, anxiety-free extractions, using advanced techniques and sedation to ensure a smooth experience.
We offer many levels of dental sedation to assure your comfort during the procedure. Whether you need a simple tooth extraction or a complex one, our experienced and caring team will discuss the procedure and provide you with a plan that fully addresses any worries that you may have. We believe that an educated and informed patient has substantially less anxiety about the procedure.
"Extractions to prepare for mini-implants.
Underwent 7 lower extractions to prep for mini-implants. Doctor Mitrogogos, Brandy, along with all medical assistants were professional, gentle and proficient. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and compassionate in their work. Questions were answered thoroughly and with full clarity. The procedure didn't require sedation, by choice, only local anesthesia (novocaine) was administered as necessary. Best of all, the entire procedure was completed in a very timely manner (about 1 Beethoven Symphony which I listened to during the procedure.) Haha."

What is a Tooth Extraction
A tooth extraction involves removing a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. While the thought of this procedure can be intimidating, modern dentistry makes it a safe, routine treatment that helps relieve pain, stop infections, and restore oral health.
Reasons You May Need a Tooth Extraction:
- Severe tooth decay or infection
- Advanced gum (periodontal) disease
- Fractured or broken teeth beyond repair
- Dental trauma or injury
- Overcrowding that affects alignment or orthodontic treatment
- Preparation for a dental prosthetic, such as a bridge or denture
At Sanford Dental Excellence, we focus on removing the problem tooth with as little disruption to your comfort as possible—and we help you plan the best path for restoration afterward.


Why Replacing an Extracted Tooth Matters
Don't just remove - restore.
Leaving an empty space in your mouth may seem harmless, especially if it's a back tooth, but it can lead to serious long-term consequences.
What can happen if you don't replace a missing tooth:
- Shifting teeth: adjacent teeth can drift into the gap, causing misalignment and bite issues
- Bone loss: the jawbone in that area begins to deteriorate without the stimulation of tooth root
- Facial changes: loss of structure can lead to a sunken or prematurely aged appearance
- Difficulty chewing: missing teeth can impact your ability to eat comfortably or enjoy your favorite foods
- Increased stress on remaining teeth: which may lead to cracks or further wear
By replacing an extracted tooth promptly - with a dental implant, bridge, or implant-supported denture, you preserve your smile's function, protect your jawbone, and maintain a balanced, youthful facial structure.
Planning for What Comes Next:
Replacing a Missing Tooth
When extraction is necessary, we make sure the process is:
1. Planned with restoration in mind from day one
2. Performed with precision using advanced digital imaging and 3D technology
3. Comfortable and anxiety-free, with IV sedation available for qualifying patients
We'll walk you through your replacement options before your extraction is even scheduled so that your long-term outcome is never an afterthought. Leaving a gap can lead to shifting teeth, bone loss, and bite problems, so we recommend restoring your smile with one of the following:
Dental Implants – A permanent, natural-looking solution
Fixed Bridges – Ideal for replacing one or more teeth in a row
Implant-Supported Dentures – For full-arch replacement with added stability
Our team will help you decide which restoration is right for your smile, lifestyle, and budget.
