Tooth Extraction at Bright Now! Dental

Do I Need a Tooth Extraction?

During your dental examination, we’ll utilize X-rays to assess the extent of damage or infection, helping us determine whether a tooth removal is necessary. Whether it’s wisdom teeth, damaged teeth, a crowded gumline, tooth decay, or infection, there are common situations where a tooth extraction may be recommended.

We always strive to safeguard, mend, and maintain your natural teeth whenever possible. Unfortunately, issues like tooth decay or traumatic injuries can impact the feasibility of restoring the tooth.

At Bright Now! Portland, we ensure affordable tooth extractions become a reality. Instead of enduring the pain of a tooth infection, we make accessing proper care hassle-free.

Secure your appointment for a consultation at Bright Now! Dental in Portland, where you’ll receive a tailored treatment plan. Don’t delay in reclaiming and perfecting your radiant smile!

Fantastic staff great to work with a little disappointed with the lack of communication for the first appointment was told it would be xrays and cleaning to get there and find out that there was no hygienist there to clean my teeth and I had to come back again. Besides that hiccup it was a great experience

1-Bright, clean and open space with room for growth (not sure they're looking to hire though).
2-Phenomenal Dentist, friendly dental asst

I arrived early a half-hour early my appointment as a new patient as instructed and was told by the front desk that everyone was at lunch so I should wait. While I waited a few people arrived and my presence was not acknowledged. I went to the desk, told them I was new and needed to fill out paperwork. I was then handed the forms.

Just before my appointment time I was greeted by the dental asst. She took my xrays and made sure I was comfortable. Kind and friendly.

I saw then escorted to an expansive back portion of the offices/exam rooms & greeted by the hygienist. The hygienist graded my gums, examined my teeth and then left. Also friendly.

Dr. Sahuon then came in to examine my teeth/gums & to chat with me about expectations, possible routines for ensuring dental health and educated me on some tactics. Thorough, kind, informative, knowledgeable and friendly.

I did not actually get my teeth cleaned at my first appointment because the hygienist was fully booked. I had to go back to the front desk and schedule an appointment for a month later.

All in all, good experience, the front desk experience could have been better, but maybe it was a function of the time of day 🤷🏽‍♀️

I'm a new patient and had 2 appointments in the same day. One at 3:00, then at 4:00. First was to see the orthodontist. They got me right in to see him.like around 2. That was great. Second appointment was to see a dentist. Waited for over an hour and when I asked about my dental appointment they said it was too late to see one. That was at 4:00. Was upset because needed to see the dentist due to a broken tooth.

First time coming here. Overall good experience. Doctor was nice. Hygienist was very nice and did a thorough job. Good looking woman too. Only complaints are the upsells. They tried to upsell me on $186 of add on's for a basic cleaning. I was somewhat in a hurry to leave and didnt realize the 30 dollars for a fluoride varnish was an upsell. My copay is normally 30 so I didn't really realize that. Don't think this unnecessary upsell culture is a good look. And overall it will lose the company more money in the long run from patients leaving to go to other clinics due to deceptive unnecessary money making practices. Its overall a good dentist office with great staff but be aware of the corporate mindset. Always question additional charges and firmly state you only "want what insurance covers minus the copay", if you have one. Nothing extra. If you are aware of these things your visit will be a good one. Also seen other comments referring to the "deep cleaning" add on. Seems to be a frequent practice and not just with myself. Just politely decline all additional charges and services that are presented. Most insurances cover cleanings in their entirety minus the copay. Just make sure you are aware of what I mentioned above. I dont think its worth going to another clinic over but its something you need to be aware of. Its not the staffs fault either. Its just how the company operates. Best of luck

After breaking 1/3 of my front tooth, I had it repaired with a filling at Bright Now Dental. It looks and feels so perfect, that one can’t see any difference between it and my other front tooth. THANK YOU, Bright Now Dental! Your staff members are all wonderful!

I think the doctor did a great job, I have nearly zero pain after my wisdom tooth extraction. He prescribed me antibiotics to make sure it doesn’t get infected, and pain medicine, and the assistants (forgive me if that’s rude I’m not sure what their positions are titled) helped calm me down while I was having an anxiety attack seconds before getting put to sleep. The front desk is always very nice.
04/25/25
Although, during my initial visit (2 weeks prior) I encountered an issue that has been reported by other customers as well. The dentist that’s normally there, called out, and a substitute dentist was put into their place for that day. I told the substitute dentists (Different than the doctor who did my wisdom tooth removal) that I was having pain in my gums. Just looking at my gums you can see that they were infected, but still, he had jammed his mirror tool into my infected gums, twice. To the point where I had to physically stop him because the pain was so severe. I was told that they were aware of my situation, and so that will put me at ease knowing that they are taking care of it.

First I would like to start off that when I first went there the dentist and his assistant was extremely excellent! That's what made me decide I wanted them to do the work on my grill😁 but then today when I came into my appointment the front desk ladies was grrreat! When I was called back the assistant Amy who seemed nice in the beginning but as we was going through the work I wanted done she shifted her attitude towards me ! I notice each question I asked irritated her more and more but not only that she came back to me with a higher price than what I was told on my first visit and nothing had changed, it was for the same work . When I told her I have a diffrent price and told her I have it in my car she tells me to go get it, but then I remembered I left at home. As I was telling Amy it was this price for the same service she happened to move the paper with the price she came back with that's when I saw the price I was told. Knowing she had the price the whole time . I pointed it out she then leaves and come back and tell me she is going to honor that price🤔 when I asked her what had changed she fumbled her words and just said she was going to honor the price😏 she had the worst attitude after that she was making all she could be difficult and I told her that! She had a rude and bad attitude towards me and I'm sure I'm not the only patient who has went through that with her! She was rude and dismissive especially when I decided to opt out certain services but was nice when she was up selling me procedures! I give her personality a 2 and her overall a negative 0!!!! But I will say the dentist and the front staff Tina and Jennifer was excellent 👌🥳😁but Amy be aware of her fraud attitude!! I would recommend this dentist off to go to only when the assistant Amy is not there!!!!

Post-Extraction DOs

Rest: Immediately after the extraction, it’s important to take it easy. Rest for at least 24 hours to allow your body to begin the healing process.

Bite on Gauze: Your dentist will provide you with sterile gauze pads. Bite gently on these pads over the extraction site to help control bleeding. Change them as needed, following your dentist’s instructions.

Apply Ice: To minimize swelling and discomfort, apply an ice pack wrapped in a cloth to your cheek for 20 minutes on and 20 minutes off during the first 24 hours.

Maintain Oral Hygiene: While you should avoid the extraction site when brushing and flossing, continue to clean your other teeth and gums gently. Use a soft-bristle toothbrush and rinse your mouth with warm saltwater (if advised by your dentist) to keep the area clean.

Eat a Soft Diet: Stick to a soft diet for a few days. Opt for foods like yogurt, applesauce, mashed potatoes, smoothies, and soups. Avoid hot, spicy, crunchy, or hard foods that could irritate the extraction site.

Follow-Up Appointments: Attend any follow-up appointments scheduled by your dentist to monitor your healing progress. They will remove any stitches if necessary and assess your recovery.

Be Patient with Healing: Remember that the full healing process may take several weeks. Be patient, and follow your dentist’s instructions diligently to ensure a successful and comfortable recovery.

Post-Extraction DON’Ts

No Smoking: Smoking can impede the healing process and increase the risk of complications. Avoid tobacco products for at least 72 hours after extraction, if not longer.

Avoid Straws: Sipping through straws creates suction in your mouth, which can dislodge the blood clot that forms in the extraction site. Skip the straws for the first few days.

Don’t Rinse Vigorously: Refrain from rinsing your mouth vigorously for the initial 24 hours. Gently rinse with warm saltwater if instructed by your dentist.

Don’t Touch the Site: Avoid touching or probing the extraction site with your fingers or tongue. Keep your hands and foreign objects away from the area to prevent infection.

Don’t Skip Medications: If your dentist has prescribed pain medication or antibiotics, take them as directed. Skipping doses can lead to increased discomfort or complications.

Skip Alcohol and Mouthwash: Avoid alcoholic beverages and mouthwash with high alcohol content, as they can delay healing and cause discomfort.

Resist the Urge to Spit Excessively: Excessive spitting can disrupt the blood clot formation, which is crucial for healing. Swallow saliva gently.

Don’t Ignore Complications: If you experience severe pain, prolonged bleeding, fever, or any signs of infection, do not ignore them. Contact your dentist promptly for guidance.

Stay Away from Hot Beverages: Hot drinks can increase blood flow to the extraction site and may lead to prolonged bleeding. Stick to cool or lukewarm beverages.

Avoid Chewing on the Extraction Side: Do not use the side of your mouth where the extraction occurred for chewing until your dentist gives the green light.
