A surgical extraction is a more complex procedure. It is used if a tooth may have broken off at the gum line or has not come into the mouth yet. Surgical extractions commonly are done by oral surgeons. However, they are also done by general dentists.
Dentists typically do the following: 1  Remove decay from teeth and fill cavities. 2  Repair cracked or fractured teeth and remove teeth. 3  Place sealants or whitening agents on teeth. 4  Administer anesthetics to keep patients from feeling pain during procedures. 5  Prescribe antibiotics or other medications.
