Here at Smile Lab in Union Square, Manhattan we take every precaution necessary to ensure the safety of our patients, and to ensure that every tooth extraction is painless and free of undue complications. We’re also incredibly transparent with our patients about every step in the process.
In fact, in the spirit of transparency, here’s a closer look into Dr. Cameron’s precise and specialized process for performing tooth extractions.
We begin with a thorough examination of the mouth to isolate the teeth that need extraction. This may require an X-ray or 3D imaging. The X-ray results will help Dr. Cameron decide if you require simple extraction or surgical extraction. Your treatment plan will then be shared with you in its entirety.
Finally, Dr Cameron will use an elevator and forceps to slowly loosen and ease out your tooth from its place.
Immediately after the procedure, the patient may be given gauze to bite down on to help in developing a blood clot. You’ll also be advised to not spit, smoke, or use a straw while drinking so that the blood clot can develop without interruptions.
A tooth that needs extracting won’t get better on its own — and the longer it’s left, the higher the risk of infection spreading to surrounding teeth and bone. Book your consultation at Smile Lab Dentistry today and get a clear answer and a clear plan, fast.
These symptoms don’t always mean a tooth needs to come out — but they do mean you need to get checked before the problem gets worse.
A toothache that won’t go away — especially one that intensifies when you bite down, apply pressure, or eat hot and cold foods — is one of the most common reasons patients end up needing an extraction. Persistent tooth pain is rarely a sign of something minor. It often indicates deep decay, infection, or a cracked tooth that has reached the nerve. If over-the-counter pain relief is the only thing keeping you functional, it’s time to call Smile Lab Dentistry and get it looked at today.
At Smile Lab, you’re not just a patient number.
You’re cared for by a collaborative team of highly trained specialists who actually talk to each other about your treatment.

A tooth that needs to come out isn't something you want to wait weeks for. At Smile Lab Dentistry in Union Square, same-day and same-week appointments are available so you're not left sitting in pain while waiting for a slot to open up. From the moment you call to the moment you walk out pain-free, our team moves with the urgency your situation deserves.
We know tooth extractions make people nervous — and we've built our entire process around making sure you don't have to be. Local anesthesia and sedation options are both available, Dr. Marcello Guglielmi and his team take the time to make sure you're fully comfortable before anything begins, and our patients consistently describe the experience as far easier and less painful than they anticipated. You'll be in calm, experienced hands from the first moment to the last.
Smile Lab Dentistry accepts most major dental insurance plans and offers flexible payment options for patients without coverage — because cost should never be a barrier to getting a tooth out that's causing you pain. And with advanced digital imaging and surgical technology on-site, Dr. Marcello can accurately assess your extraction before touching a single instrument — meaning a more precise procedure, less trauma to surrounding tissue, and a faster recovery for you.
Tooth extractions are incredibly delicate procedures that some dental clinics just straight-up refuse to perform due to the risks associated. They require an expert’s hand to ensure that the operation doesn’t end up causing even more pain and discomfort. Also to ensure that it doesn’t end up causing irreversible damage to your jaw bone or gums, resulting in the need for an even pricier and riskier surgical operation in the future.
Dr. Cameron Lewis here at Smile Lab in Union Square, Manhattan has been a practicing oral and maxillofacial surgeon for over a decade. He got his doctorate in dental surgery from the Howard University College of Dentistry back in 2007. He continued his practice by gaining oral and maxillofacial surgery internships at the New York Medical College and Jacobi Medical Center.
But his greatest achievement yet is performing hundreds of successful tooth extractions despite complications for satisfied patients who remain connected with Smile Lab, NYC to this day.
So, rest assured if you do pick us to perform your tooth extraction, you’ll be in very experienced and capable hands.

For the first 24 hours after your extraction, stick to soft, cool foods — think yogurt, applesauce, smoothies, mashed potatoes, and ice cream. Avoid anything hot, hard, crunchy, or chewy that could disturb the blood clot forming in the extraction site. Over the following days you can gradually reintroduce softer solid foods as comfort allows. Most patients are back to eating normally within a week. Dr. Marcello will provide you with a full list of dietary guidelines at your appointment so you know exactly what to expect during recovery.
Keep the gauze pad placed over your extraction site firmly in place for at least 30 to 45 minutes after your procedure. This pressure helps form the blood clot essential for proper healing. If bleeding continues after removing the first piece of gauze, replace it with a fresh piece and bite down firmly for another 30 minutes. Avoid changing the gauze too frequently as this can disrupt clot formation. If significant bleeding continues beyond a few hours, contact Smile Lab Dentistry at 332-237-6453 right away.
A straightforward simple extraction at Smile Lab Dentistry typically takes between 20 and 40 minutes from the time anesthesia is administered to the time you’re done. More complex surgical extractions — involving impacted teeth or teeth broken at the gumline — may take longer depending on the complexity of your specific case. Dr. Marcello will give you a realistic time estimate during your consultation so you can plan your day accordingly. Most patients are genuinely surprised by how quickly it’s over.
