Tooth Extractions

What is Tooth Extractions?

A tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the bone. While preserving your natural teeth is always the goal, extractions may be necessary for various reasons such as severe decay, damage, or crowding. Our goal is to ensure that your extraction is as comfortable and smooth as possible, allowing you to recover quickly and maintain your oral health.

Reasons for Tooth Extractions:

  • Severe tooth decay or infection that cannot be restored with a filling or root canal

  • Impacted wisdom teeth that are causing pain or infection

  • Tooth crowding for orthodontic treatment

  • Gum disease that has weakened the tooth

  • Trauma or injury that causes significant damage to the tooth

The Tooth Extraction Process:

  • Consultation & Examination – We evaluate the affected tooth and discuss your options.

  • Local Anesthesia – The area around the tooth is numbed to ensure comfort during the procedure.

  • Tooth Removal – Using specialized tools, we carefully remove the tooth while minimizing discomfort and trauma to the surrounding area.

  • Post-Extraction Care – After the extraction, we provide instructions for aftercare to ensure proper healing and prevent complications.

Recovery After Extractions:

  • Rest & Healing: Most patients recover in 1–2 weeks, although it may take longer for more complicated extractions (like wisdom teeth).

  • Minimized Discomfort: You may experience mild pain, swelling, or bruising post-procedure, which can be managed with prescribed pain relief.

  • Follow-Up: A follow-up appointment may be scheduled to monitor healing and remove any stitches if necessary.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Does a tooth extraction hurt?

+
-
No, the area will be completely numbed with local anesthesia, so you will feel no pain during the procedure. Some mild discomfort or pressure may occur, but we’ll manage this carefully. Afterward, over-the-counter pain relief can help minimize any soreness during the healing process.

How long will it take to heal after a tooth extraction?

+
-
Healing typically takes 1–2 weeks for most extractions. For more complex cases, like wisdom teeth, it may take longer. You will receive detailed aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible recovery.

Can I eat and drink after an extraction?

+
-
Immediately after the procedure, you should avoid solid foods and stick to soft foods for the first few days. We recommend avoiding hot drinks and chewing on the side opposite the extraction to prevent irritation. Your dentist will provide specific recommendations based on your situation.

Will I need to replace the extracted tooth?

+
-
If the tooth was a permanent tooth, we may recommend a replacement option such as a dental implant, bridge, or partial denture to restore your smile and prevent shifting of surrounding teeth. This will be discussed during your consultation.
