A damaged tooth may need removal if it’s beyond repair. We also understand patients sometimes choose to remove a tooth due to financial limitations. We’ll always work hard to help you find the solution that fits every aspect of your situation. Regardless, we use the best methods and equipment to provide a quick and painless visit. Fortunately, sedation options hold out a range of anxiety-reduction protocols that you may wish to consider as well.
Other minor procedures decided on are always applied with the same compassionate philosophy. Biopsies of suspicious tissue, reshaping of gum defects, or removal of obtrusive bone present scenarios that may involve surgical correction.
Dr. Robeck will determine with you the best way for you to receive care. On occasion, they recommend a referral to a trusted specialist. Any time they feel you’ll be served best by a colleague trained in a particular treatment, He won’t hesitate to use the best resources for your care.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of oral surgery do you perform at Robeck Dental?
We provide a variety of oral surgery services, including simple and surgical tooth extractions, soft tissue biopsies, bone grafting for implant placement, and the removal of some bony growths (like tori) that may interfere with dentures or oral function. Each procedure is done with your comfort and long-term health in mind.
Why would I need a soft tissue biopsy?
A biopsy involves taking a small sample of oral tissue to check for any abnormal or suspicious changes—such as persistent sores, discoloration, or lumps. It’s a simple, preventive step that can give you peace of mind and help us catch potential concerns early.
What are bony growths, and why would they need to be removed?
Bony growths, or tori, are harmless but sometimes interfere with dentures, chewing, or speech. If they’re causing discomfort or preventing a good denture fit, we can gently remove them in-office to improve your function and comfort.
What if my oral surgery needs are beyond what Robeck Dental offers?
If your situation requires more complex surgical care—such as impacted wisdom teeth, jaw issues, or certain types of pathology—we’ll refer you to one of our trusted oral surgery specialists. We work closely with skilled partners to ensure you receive expert, seamless care from start to finish.
