REMOVAL & ORAL SURGERY

Wisdom teeth, tooth extractions, and so much more.

Although wisdom tooth extractions are the most common and well-known form of oral surgery, many other procedures could save your smile. These include:

An oral surgeon who has attended additional years of dental school performs most of these treatments. However, wisdom teeth and regular tooth extraction can be performed in our Soundview Dental Arts office. Our knowledgeable dentist can gently and precisely remove teeth that are negatively impacting your oral health.

More complex issues are referred to our partner oral surgeon (who visits our office). Although the idea of surgery may sound intimidating, our team is by your side and will listen to any concerns you have. We work closely with the oral surgeon to ensure you receive the highest standard of care.

TOOTH EXTRACTIONS

Simple, fast, and gentle tooth removal in Tacoma, WA.

Dr. Crane is always striving to save your natural teeth. He offers a range of comprehensive services designed to maintain your smile and health. However, on occasion, the best course of action is to remove your tooth in order to protect your health.

Extractions are commonly performed due to the following reasons:

Many times it is for the benefit of your overall health to have these teeth removed.

The process for removal is simple. Your caring dentist carefully numbs the area (we offer sedation for more nervous patients), the tooth is rocked in the socket so it is loosened, and then it is pulled out. The socket is then covered with a gauze to prevent bleeding and infection. After the procedure, we will discuss restorative options such as a dental implant or dental bridge, if necessary.

I was referred here by a friend several years ago. The dental work is a 10 out of 10. The best part is that they make you feel like family.

I actually enjoy going to the dentist here. Dr Whalen is engaging and always stops in to say hi. My hygeniest is top notch and is always concerned for my dental health. Thank you to the front desk for the appointment reminders and curteous care.

He’s the best in the Northwest! I hated going to the dentist because of childhood trauma associated with dental visits. I was referred by a friend that he was great and I can testify that he is great. He’s entire crew is! No judgement all remarks or unnecessary treatments, just what you need. If you don’t want to take out your wisdom teeth and they are healthy, you don’t have to be pressured to take them out unless you have to. Love love love you Dr Winskill 🤗

Years ago I used a dentist that basically did horrible work and as a result most of what he did has been redone. I've been going to Dr Winskill for the last 11 years. His work is second to none. As a result, I have sent him several referrals and they continue to be his patients. One of his hygienists, Elaine, is very skilled and does a great job cleaning my teeth. I highly recommend Dr Winskill and his staff.

ORAL SURGERY IN TACOMA, WA

Expert care for more complex cases.

When your third set of molars does not erupt properly or are too big for your jaw, they can cause pain and other dental problems. An oral surgeon can remove both regular wisdom teeth and impacted teeth. Using advanced skill and precise techniques, the teeth can be comfortably removed and balance reinstated to your mouth.

Periodontal Surgery

When gum disease or soft tissue problems have developed beyond the realms of oral hygiene maintenance, a gum surgeon can help restore your health. Through deep cleanings and gum contouring, common cosmetic and restorative complaints can be fixed. Very often laser dentistry is employed to produce more precise and effective results, with a faster recovery time.
