Extractions & Socket Preservation
Extractions & Socket Preservation in Bonita Springs, FL. Dr. Juan M. Teodoro, D.M.D. Welcome To Bonita Periodontics & Implants
Surgical extraction provides the safest and most effective approach when teeth haven’t erupted fully, have curved or multiple roots, or require bone removal for access. Dr. Juan Teodoro’s extensive surgical training and experience with Extractions in Bonita Springs ensure that even complex removals proceed smoothly with minimal post-operative discomfort.

Surgical extractions involve creating small access flaps in the gum tissue and sometimes removing small amounts of bone to reach the tooth safely. This controlled approach allows Dr. Teodoro to:

  • Remove impacted wisdom teeth without damaging nearby structures
  • Extract broken teeth that can’t be grasped with forceps
  • Address teeth with complex root anatomy safely
  • Preserve maximum bone for future implant placement
  • Minimize trauma to surrounding tissues


The precision and care Dr. Teodoro brings to surgical extractions often result in faster healing and less post-operative discomfort than patients expect from more involved procedures.

Sedation Options: Your Comfort Matters

Understanding that dental anxiety affects many patients, Dr. Juan Teodoro offers comprehensive sedation options to ensure your Extractions in Bonita Springs experience remains as comfortable as possible. From mild relaxation to deeper sedation levels, the right choice depends on your anxiety level, medical history, and the complexity of your procedure.

Nitrous oxide provides gentle relaxation while allowing you to remain fully conscious and responsive. Oral anxiolysis offers deeper relaxation for patients with moderate anxiety, while IV sedation delivers the most profound comfort for complex procedures or severe dental phobias.

Dr. Teodoro carefully evaluates your needs and medical history to recommend the sedation approach that best ensures your safety and comfort throughout the extraction process.

Immediate Implant Placement

One of Dr. Juan Teodoro’s specialties involves placing dental implants immediately following tooth extraction, often called “immediate implant placement.” This advanced technique can significantly reduce your overall treatment time and preserve bone structure that might be lost during the healing period.

When conditions are right, this approach lets you leave the office with your extraction site prepared for eventual crown placement. Not every extraction site qualifies for immediate implant placement, but Dr. Teodoro evaluates each situation carefully to determine when this option can benefit your specific case.

Combining extraction and immediate implant placement requires exceptional surgical skill and experience, which Dr. Juan Teodoro has developed through years of specialized training and thousands of successful procedures.

Advanced Technology Enhances Your Experience

Dr. Juan Teodoro incorporates cutting-edge technology into every aspect of Extractions in Bonita Springs, from initial diagnosis through final healing. Digital imaging provides detailed views of root structures and surrounding anatomy, allowing precise surgical planning that minimizes surprises during your procedure.

Piezo surgery technology uses ultrasonic vibrations to remove bone when necessary, offering incredible precision and leaving soft tissues undamaged. This advanced approach often reduces post-operative swelling and discomfort significantly compared to traditional surgical techniques.

Post-Extraction Care: Setting You Up for Success

Proper healing after tooth extraction sets the foundation for optimal long-term results, whether you plan implant replacement or other restorative options. Dr. Juan Teodoro provides detailed post-operative instructions and remains available to address any concerns during your recovery.

Most patients find extraction recovery much more comfortable than anticipated, especially when carefully following the provided care guidelines. Dr. Teodoro schedules follow-up appointments to monitor your healing progress and address any questions during recovery.

Modern extraction techniques and post-operative care protocols have dramatically improved the healing experience, with most patients returning to normal activities within just a few days of their procedure.

Gentle Extractions in Bonita Springs

Board certification in periodontics means Dr. Juan Teodoro has completed extensive additional training beyond dental school, specifically focused on surgical procedures and the supporting structures of teeth. This specialized expertise translates into more precise, comfortable extractions with optimal healing outcomes.

His military background as a periodontist in the U.S. Air Force and current role as a clinical professor demonstrate the high level of skill and knowledge he brings to every procedure. Patients consistently praise his gentle technique, clear communication, and genuine concern for their comfort and well-being.

Dr. Dr. Teodoro has hands of gold! He recently extracted 2 teeth, one was a difficult crowned tooth which needed stitches. The patient was my Son Frank( who is handicap in wheelchair) Dr. Teodoro told Frank he was going to have pain. Dr. gave him 2 prescriptions one Antibiotic the other Ibuprofen. Frank experienced no pain! Dr. Teodoro has "magic instruments. This is the second time Frank was seen by Dr.T. he extracted 3 teeth last year. We were told by our Dentist to see an oral Surgeon, however I don't trust anyone but Dr. Teodoro, I know for a fact he extracted 4 teeth and whole mouth laser for me Elizabeth, I didn't have an ounce of pain! He is the Best Dr. ever.

With this visit, I only dealt with staff, and they are truly wonderful. Very knowledgeable, very professional and very friendly. I felt comfortable at all times, very reassuring. On my second visit I dealt with both the Dentist and his assistant. both are very friendly and very professional. I was always told what was going happen and what I needed to do. What I would expect from a good Medical practice, and reassurance that I was in safe, caring hands. For the next visit, their friendly and efficient staff once again gave another flawless, painless procedure, fully explained. I never felt any more comfortable. For this visit I was again The recipient of friendly professionalism, always nice. Business talk and small talk with all the staff. The work to be done, a simple x-ray, was performed in a friendly manner that kept me abreast of what to expect. Many of us are not fond of dental work, but with the staff of Bonita Periodontics, I'm happy. For the next and last (hopefully) visit, this is such a patient-friendly office to deal with. I'm not happy with why I had to go, but I am truly happy that I did! The procedure was fully explained to me, all questions answered and feeling comfortable. I heartily recommend this office.

Dr. Teodoro and his team were amazing! My 14 year old son needed a procedure done and they were very kind and thorough explaining the procedure. Dr. Teodoro even met us at his office late at night the day after when there was a small situation after surgery. As a mom that was so reassuring and I was so grateful for his genuine care. To add this is my second son to see him. Highly recommend Dr. Teodoro!
