Tooth removal is one of the most common types of oral surgery. It’s one that our team specializes in. If you come in with an aching tooth, we’ll do all we can to save the tooth with a filling, a crown, or root canal. However, if keeping your tooth in place might jeopardize your healthy teeth, removing it will be the best option.
Dr. Henry will make sure that the area around the tooth is fully numbed before attempting to remove it. We don’t want you to feel any unnecessary discomfort. You’re also welcome to oral conscious sedation in pill form if you need help for dental anxiety. If will produce a complete feeling of calm and relieve your stress about your tooth. After your tooth is out, we’ll give you after-care instructions to help you enjoy a quick and easy recovery.
If you need oral surgery in Foster City, visit Stephen R. Henry, DDS. Call our office today at 650-718-8087 for an appointment. You can also request an appointment online.

Dr. Henry and Donna, one of his hygienists are the best! Donna continues to learn and use her new knowledge. My latest cleaning- she used a new system – left my teeth alittle bit whiter! Her recommendation of toothpaste has been great for my teeth n gums! Dr Henry is extremely knowledgeable and takes the time to explain his recommendations. So glad I switched dentists to come to this practice!

I have been having my teeth cleaned and cared for by Dr Henry and his efficient staff for probably 40 years. The facility is clean, up to date technologically and the staff is most accommodating and qualified. If you need a new dentist give them a try. Another dentist originally introduced me to Dr Henry’s practice!!!
Came in as new patient preparing for Radiation Treatments after surgery due to tongue cancer. Dr. Henry and his staff created a plan and in two visits: replaced 2 crowns, an extraction, misc. fillings. Was relatively pain free and everyone was pleasant and not judgmental towards my predicament. Have gone to cleanings since tongue cancer surgery. They have been diligent on helping me keep my teeth after radiation treatments. They are sensitive to my pain and always have a positive attitude despite what I’m going through.
Excellent service, very skilled team. Been a patient for years and recommended them many times.

I changed dentists and just had my first cleaning appointment at Dr. Henry with Tammy. Very thorough and gentle cleaning experience. Cordial, professional and personal service from the entire team. They adhere to COVID guidelines and I felt safe there – this being my first the dentist appointment after months of postponing due to COVID.
Tooth extraction is often needed if a tooth is too damaged to repair or if it is damaging your other teeth. In some cases, you need to have teeth removed to make room for dentures or another dental restoration.
Dental insurance may cover a portion of your oral surgery. It is best to check with your individual policy to determine what is and is not covered and to determine what your portion of the cost will be. We will happily provide an estimate of the amount you will be responsible for.
We recommend not exercising at all for the first 24 hours after oral surgery. Trying to do too much too soon can actually prolong healing. Vigorous exercise can loosen the blood clot on an extraction site and lead to a painful dry socket. For the next few days, you should limit activities to low-impact exercises as a precaution.
We can see you as soon as tomorrow!
