Tooth Extractions

Safe and Gentle Tooth Removal for Lasting Relief

Why Are Tooth Extractions Needed?

Tooth extractions are needed for teeth that are severely damaged, decayed, or causing overcrowding. Removing the tooth helps prevent further complications.

What Happens During a Tooth Extraction?

The dentist numbs the area and gently removes the tooth. For complex cases, surgical extraction may be required to remove broken or impacted teeth.

How Long Does a Tooth Extraction Take?

A simple tooth extraction usually takes about 20 to 40 minutes. Surgical extractions may take longer, depending on the complexity of the case.

What Should You Expect After Extraction?

After extraction, mild swelling and discomfort are normal. Your dentist will provide care instructions, and most patients recover fully within a few days.

How Do You Care for the Area After Extraction?

It’s important to keep the area clean by gently rinsing with salt water. Avoid hard foods and smoking to promote healing and prevent complications.

Can Tooth Extractions Improve Oral Health?

Yes, tooth extractions can improve oral health by removing problematic teeth. This prevents infections, reduces pain, and makes room for healthier teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, the extraction procedure is not painful because local anesthesia is used to numb the area. You may feel pressure, but no pain. Post-extraction discomfort is usually minimal and can be managed with pain relievers.

Recovery from a tooth extraction typically takes about 3 to 5 days for a simple extraction. Following aftercare instructions, such as avoiding hard foods and not smoking, helps speed up the healing process.

Stick to soft foods like yogurt, applesauce, mashed potatoes, and soups for the first few days after the extraction. Avoid hot, crunchy, or spicy foods that can irritate the extraction site.

Most patients can return to work or school the day after a simple tooth extraction. However, if you’ve had a surgical extraction, your dentist may advise resting for a couple of days.
