Gentle Tooth Extractions at Toluca Advanced Dentistry
We know that hearing the words “tooth extraction” can cause anxiety, but at Toluca Advanced Dentistry, you’ll find a team that puts your comfort and well-being first. Dr. Shawn Shahrooz brings extensive experience and a gentle touch to every procedure, ensuring that you receive the most conservative and appropriate treatment for your unique situation. Our modern North Hollywood office combines advanced technology with compassionate care to make your experience as comfortable as possible, and we promise to treat you like family while providing transparent information about all your treatment options.
When does a tooth need to be removed?
Before any decisions are made, Dr. Shahrooz or Dr. Tina will perform a thorough examination and take detailed X-rays to get a complete picture of your tooth and surrounding bone structure. This careful evaluation helps us determine if extraction is truly necessary or if there might be other options to save your tooth. While we always look for ways to save natural teeth first through treatments like root canals, sometimes removing a tooth is the best way to protect your health and prevent future problems. This might be needed when there’s severe damage from decay that can’t be fixed, a serious infection that has affected the surrounding bone, or when there are too many teeth crowded into a small space.
- Severe infection that has destroyed a significant portion of the tooth and supporting bone structure
- Serious decay that has damaged a tooth beyond repair, making a successful restoration impossible
- Crowding caused by too many teeth to properly fit in the mouth
Our Gentle Approach to extractions
At Toluca Advanced Dentistry, both Dr. Shahrooz and Dr. Tina understand that comfort during a dental procedure means more than just managing physical sensations. We start by using advanced 3D imaging technology to precisely plan your extraction, ensuring the most efficient and least invasive approach possible. For patients who feel anxious, we offer twilight sedation to help you feel completely relaxed throughout the procedure. During your treatment, we use the latest electric handpieces that operate more quietly and with less vibration than traditional dental tools, making your experience significantly more comfortable. We also provide warming blankets and calming music to help you stay at ease. Our doctors take time between steps to ensure you’re completely comfortable, and we’ll never rush your treatment. After your procedure, we provide detailed aftercare instructions and are always available to answer questions during your recovery.
Planning your future smile
A missing tooth doesn’t have to be permanent. Dr. Shahrooz and Dr. Tina at Toluca Advanced Dentistry offer several modern tooth replacement options to restore both the function and appearance of your smile. From single-tooth solutions to more comprehensive treatments, we’ll work closely with you to find the perfect option that fits your lifestyle, preferences, and goals. Our focus is on providing long-lasting results that look and feel completely natural, so you can get back to enjoying life with confidence.

Amazing experience. My friend could not stop talking highly of Dr. Shawn and encouraged me to go to him.I have been to my share of dentists over the years but Dr. Shahrad Shahrooz and his staff operate at a much superior league. My first appointment with him started as an amazing experience. His office is very calming; such a friendly environment.After taking X-ray he explained everything to me in detail discussing all of my options. I definitely didn’t feel rushed. He gave me his recommendations and I listened to him which turned out to be a wise choice as I am pain free now and I am able to enjoy food like never before.

I've needed a new dentist for several years.Suddenly, a filling fell out, and, I was scrambling to find a new dentist.I called around, and Toluca Advanced was the only one available.I'm glad they were. Dr Tina was the dentist I was paired with. One of the best dental experiences I've ever had. She knew what was wrong and how to fix it. I agreed to the treatment, and it was quick and painless. She fixed it, and I was on my way. I needed a crown on that tooth, she prepped it for the crown, put a temporary on and 5 days later the permanent crown was cemented in.I came back the following week for a teeth cleaning, and had no problems since.I woul recommend them any timeI have to say, the whole staff is exemplary. Great people.Thank you Toluca Advanced.
Went in for my first checkup today after having a fear of dentists for quite some time. Dr. Shawn and his team were nothing but welcoming and kind from the moment I walked in the door. Even after admitting my anxiousness and past dental history, I did not feel judged nor did I get treated any differently. I can not wait to go back for my next appointment and look forward to working with this amazing team, to get my smile back in good health.

i’m 70 yrs old and have been blissed to of had many excellent dentists over the years.. and i can say without reservation that Dr. Shahrooz has the most thoughtful and gentle hands that i’ve ever encountered; this is not to say that my other dentists were not careful and skilled.. it’s just that he is extraordinarily so.. you know he’s in your mouth doing something but you feel very little.. on top of that he is a perfectionist.. within the past year he has replaced two 55-60 year old fillings with crowns; he takes the time and makes itty bitty micro adjustments until it’s perfect! .. additionally the office is super clean, with the latest high tech dental equipment, that amazes an old geezer like myself that remembers the old belt driven tools and wet photo chemical x-rays that shook the building when the button was pushed and took time to develop .. and .. Maria who takes care of scheduling and billing is a joy; she checks with the insurance company before you arrive and shows you a breakdown of the charges and what portion is your responsibility so there are no surprises and there is very little if any waiting.. it’s a top drawer operation and i feel fortunate to have him as my dentist...
Had an amazing visit and I felt super comfortable getting my front teeth worked on! The work looks good and done in one visit.
This dentistry is tuck away in a very cute setting with lots of foliage when you walk through to the office. The inside of the office is very inviting and super clean. When you first walk in your greeted by Maria. She is so professional and has a very lovely disposition. She definitely one of the stars in this dentistry’s business. The doctor, assistants, and all tech as very nice and extremely professional as well. Of course no one truly likes the dentist, but everyone here makes the experience so much better! I definitely would recommend to anyone.
I hadn’t seen a dentist for a year due to changing my job and was in dire need of some dental work. To make matters worse, I had a chipped front tooth for about a month. I noticed how lack of access to a dentist slowly started affecting my confidence and changing my personality. I started hiding my mouth and smiling less. I’m return, people smiled at me less and less. It surprised me how big of an impact this had on my overall happiness.Once my insurance kicked in again, I started googling dentists near me. I saw Doctor Shawn had many good reviews. When I spoke to his staff, they were incredibly friendly in helping me navigate my new insurance company. Everyone was very kind, especially Brianna.Then it was finally time for my appointment. I arrived to find that it was the cutest little converted house style dental office. It was exactly what I was hoping it would be based on google images.Everyone was knowledgeable and friendly. Doctor Shawn stayed after hours to make sure my smile was perfect for my work photoshoot. I deeply appreciated this. He worked quickly, was gentle, and made my smile more beautiful than it was before I chipped my tooth.I can’t thank him enough for giving me back my smile and helping me regain my confidence. I already referred three people to him. There’s an art to dentistry and Doctor Shawn has mastered it.
I am very pleased with Dr. Shahrooz. I just saw him yesterday and am rating him a five star!!!! He is knowledgeable, professional and personable with a good sense of humor. He does great work.
Dr. Shahrooz is an excellent dentist, in my experience. He is gentle and caring in his work and exceptionally conscientious in observing dental situations in the making. In addition, he has surrounded himself in his practice with coworkers who are equally competent as well as a pleasure to be with for his patients.
Dr. Shawn is friendly, fast and does great work. His staff gets you in and out on time . Just a good experience (as far as visiting the dentist goes).
My most recent visit was for a deep cleaning. Everything went great. My mouth was a little sore that evening and next day. That was the only discomfort I experienced. Thank you.
I had the best experience yesterday at Toluca Advanced Dentistry. The entire staff was so kind! The office literally looked like a fairytale cottage. It was so clean, peaceful, and welcoming. Everything the hygienist and Dr. did was so well communicated. Very excited to have found them! Thanks Dr. Shawn and staff!
I had an outstanding experience at Dr. Shawn Shahrooz's dental practice. After a distressing encounter at another clinic, I was fortunate to find Dr. Shawn's office nearby.Dr. Shawn and his team were a breath of fresh air. They not only accommodated me promptly but also displayed a genuine concern for my well-being. Dr. Shawn took the time to discuss the treatment plan thoroughly and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. His professionalism and expertise were evident, and it was clear that he prioritized my health over anything else.Dr. Shawn's practice not only met my expectations but exceeded them. The empathy and care extended by his team were exactly what I needed during a challenging time. They turned what could have been a nightmare scenario into a reassuring and exceptional experience. 👍🏻
So relieved to have finally found a great dentist! After having been scammed by so many dentists in the past, it was such a relief to be walked through and clearly shown why each procedure was needed. The office is gorgeous and really clean. And the STAFF!! From the front receptionist to the dental hygenist to Dr. Shahrad himself, everyone was fabulous, so nice, and I can't wait to go back! Who ever says that about the dentist?? 😉
If you don't have a dentist you love, look no further. My father was a doctor and my mom was a nurse, so I have been spoiled when it comes to health care and I am very picky.I was in need of help quickly and didn't have a dentist. I was a little panicked. I was offered a free consultation the very next day and they resolved my painful tooth the day after that. They even offered to do it right then and there, same day! What service! This office is kind, professional, and caring. From the staff to Dr. Shawn himself I give the office infinity stars.They put me at ease. From the moment I walked into the calm, clean, and beautifully done reception area, I felt safe. They actually took the time to go at my anxieties pace and made sure I was comfortable during the procedure. They listened to MY needs! I never felt like a number or invisible nor rushed, they actually took the time and cared.The office itself is very well done with all the staff in scrubs. It looks brand new and has a calm elegance about it. All of their implements were 100% professional, up to date or new, and clean clean clean. By clean I mean spotless! Such a nice space and parking too! Yes, I fell in LOVE with this office, their work, and their commitment to me, the patient.Believe me when I tell you...I have found my dentist! I will be going back again and again for all of my dental needs. If you don't have a dentist you LOVE, look no further. You just hit the jackpot!!!
I been going to Dr. Shawn for the past 3 years and been super happy with the quality of work, Professionality of staff and himself, most advanced technology and equipment and last but not least, how you are treated like royalty!One thing I realized by reading the below reviews, there are some bad/one star reviews that don't belong to Dr. Shawn and they are for the previous Dr. Who owned the business or this business would have 5 stars as it deserves. I would honestly give them 6 if I could!I highly recommend Dr. Shawn to anyone for any dental needs, he is truly an amazing dentist.
