Is there a specific dental term for teeth pulling?

Reason I ask is because I noticed that there are 2 bumps that look like teeth coming out of the inside of my mouth next to my regular teeth. I need to be sure my insurance covers teeth pulling but I'm not sure what the procedure is called. I want to get this done asap. Thanks!

Extraction= tooth is erupted Surgical Extraction= tooth needed to be sectioned prior to removal Soft Tissue Extraction= some gums needed to be cut away to access tooth prior to extraction Boney Impaction Extraction= some gums and bone needed to be removed prior to extraction... Hope this helped! :)
