A Short Drive Up Cliffdale Road for a Full-Service Extraction
If you are in Hope Mills and have been told you need a tooth removed, the closest practice that handles the full process under one roof is The Teeth Doctors at 6402 Yadkin Road. It is roughly 8 miles up Cliffdale Road, about 11 to 15 minutes in normal traffic. The same drive most Hope Mills families already make for work, school pickup, or errands.
You will see one provider, Dr. Jeremiah Davis, from the consult through the extraction, through whatever comes next on your treatment plan. No referral hand-off to a separate oral surgeon. No second consultation at a different office. The extraction, any bone grafting needed at the same time, and the eventual implant or denture work all happen at the same chair, with the same records, and the same team that already knows your case.
Why Hope Mills Patients Drive to The Teeth Doctors
Hope Mills has grown into one of the larger suburban communities in Cumberland County. There are good general dentists in town. What there is less of is a single office that handles extractions, implants, sedation, and full-arch reconstruction in one place. That is the gap the practice fills, and it is the practical reason most Hope Mills patients give for making the short trip up Cliffdale Road.
Dr. Davis and the Credentials Behind the Practice
Dr. Jeremiah Davis is a US Army veteran who served with the 82nd Airborne Division. After leaving the service, he built a credential stack that is unusual for general dental practice in this part of the state:
- Master of the Academy of General Dentistry (MAGD)
- Master of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (MICOI)
- Master of the Academy of Osseointegration (AO)
- Fellow of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry (FAAID)
- Diplomate of the American Board of Oral Implantology (DABOI/ID)
- Surgical Master of the Interdisciplinary Dental Education Academy
- Dawson Academy Scholar
- Voted Top 40 Dentists Under 40
For a routine simple extraction, none of those letters change much. For a complicated surgical extraction, a tooth that is going to be replaced with an implant, or a full-arch case where multiple teeth are coming out at once, they matter. They are why people who have been told elsewhere that their case is too complex often end up here.
Sedation for Anxious Patients
If the idea of an extraction is what has kept you putting it off, we offer IV sedation and other levels of sedation depending on the complexity of the case and your anxiety level. You can be aware enough to follow instructions and relaxed enough that the appointment does not feel like a big event. We will talk through the options at your consultation so you know what to expect before the day of the procedure.
When a Tooth Needs to Come Out
Extraction is not the first option for any tooth that can be saved. We will tell you straight if a root canal, a crown, or another restorative path is the better call. The situations where extraction is genuinely the right answer include:
- Decay so deep that the tooth structure cannot support a crown, even after root canal treatment.
- A crack that runs below the gumline, where the tooth cannot be sealed and restored.
- Periodontal disease that has destroyed the bone support around the tooth.
- A wisdom tooth that is impacted, infected, or pressing on the tooth in front of it.
- Crowding ahead of orthodontic treatment, where a tooth has to come out to make room.
- Planning ahead of full-arch implant treatment, where compromised teeth are removed at the start of the case.
What an Extraction Visit Looks Like at Our Office
Your first appointment is a consultation. We take 3D imaging, look at the tooth and the surrounding bone, talk through what we see, and walk you through the options. If extraction is the right call, we will explain whether you need a simple extraction or a surgical extraction, what sedation looks like for your case, and what happens to the site afterward. You will leave with a plan and a cost estimate before any procedure is scheduled.
Simple Extractions
A simple extraction is for a tooth that is fully erupted, visible, and reachable with elevators and forceps. Local anesthetic, gentle loosening of the tooth from the socket, removal. Most simple extractions take less time than people expect. Gauze goes in, after-care instructions go home, and you are out.
Surgical Extractions
A surgical extraction is for a tooth that is broken at or below the gumline, impacted, or otherwise not accessible with simple instruments. It may involve a small incision in the gum tissue and removal of a small amount of bone around the tooth. Sedation is available for these cases and most patients use it. Healing takes a little longer than a simple extraction but the technique reduces trauma to the surrounding tissue.
Multiple Extractions and Same-Day Restorative Planning
If you need several teeth removed at once, either because of widespread decay or because you are starting full-arch implant treatment, the appointment is planned out carefully. We look at the order of removal, whether bone grafting is going at the same time, and what your day after the appointment looks like. Multiple extractions are not a series of single extractions stacked together. They are a planned procedure with a different recovery curve.
After the Extraction: Recovery and What to Expect
A blood clot forms in the socket within the first few hours. That clot is what your body uses to rebuild bone in the area, so protecting it matters. Keep the gauze in place for as long as instructed. Avoid rinsing forcefully. Skip drinking through a straw for 24 hours. Eat soft foods. Rest with your head slightly elevated.
Over-the-counter pain medication usually handles the discomfort for a simple extraction. Surgical extractions may need a stronger prescription for the first day or two. Most patients are back to normal eating within five to seven days, depending on the location and complexity of the extraction. The bone underneath continues to remodel for several months.
Call us if pain gets worse on day three or four instead of better, if you see signs of infection (swelling that grows rather than shrinks, drainage, fever), or if the clot dislodges. Dry socket is uncommon but treatable when it happens. Do not wait it out.
Getting Here From Hope Mills
From most of Hope Mills, the route is straightforward. Head north on Cliffdale Road into Fayetteville. Cliffdale runs roughly 8 miles from the heart of Hope Mills up to our area of Fayetteville, taking about 11 to 15 minutes in normal traffic. As you approach, follow signs toward Yadkin Road. Our office is at 6402 Yadkin Rd, with free on-site parking. Let GPS handle the final approach.
If you are coming from the south end of Hope Mills closer to Rockfish or the Camden Road side, the Hope Mills Road and South Reilly Road combination is sometimes a faster alternate during peak hours. We can give you the local routing recommendation when you call to confirm your appointment.
Cost, Insurance, and Financing for Hope Mills Patients
We do not publish a flat extraction price because the range is too wide to be useful: a simple extraction with no complications and a surgical extraction with sedation are two different procedures with two different costs. After your consultation and imaging, you will receive a written estimate before scheduling.
On the payment side:
- We are in-network with select PPO plans, including Delta Dental. We handle the filing and claim follow-up for you.
- The Friends and Family Membership Plan is an in-house plan that covers preventive care and offers real discounts on treatment, including extractions, for patients without dental insurance.
- CareCredit financing is available for patients who want to spread the cost over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does an extraction appointment take?
Simple extractions usually take 30 to 45 minutes from chair to door. Surgical extractions or multiple extractions run longer, often 60 to 90 minutes. We give you a specific estimate at your consultation.
Will I need someone to drive me home?
If you have IV sedation or oral sedation, yes. You cannot drive yourself for the rest of the day. For a simple extraction with local anesthetic only, you can drive yourself home, but most patients prefer not to immediately afterward.
Can I get an extraction the same day as my consultation?
Sometimes, for straightforward simple extractions. For surgical extractions, sedation cases, or anything that needs more imaging, we schedule the procedure separately so you have time to arrange a driver and prepare.
