Teeth Extraction

Reasons for Tooth Extraction:

• Severe Tooth Decay:
  When a tooth is extensively damaged by decay and beyond repair, extraction may be necessary to prevent further complications.

• Advanced Gum Disease:
  In cases of advanced gum disease (periodontitis) causing significant tooth mobility, extraction may be required.

• Impacted Wisdom Teeth:
  Wisdom teeth (third molars) that are impacted or unable to emerge properly can cause pain and complications, warranting extraction.

• Overcrowding:
  To prepare for orthodontic treatment, some teeth may need to be extracted to create space for proper alignment.

• Irreparable Dental Trauma:
  Teeth severely damaged by accidents or injury may require extraction if restoration isn’t possible.

The Tooth Extraction Process:

Our dental team follows a step-by-step approach to ensure a successful and comfortable tooth extraction:

1. Comprehensive Examination:
   Before recommending extraction, your dentist will thoroughly examine your teeth and oral health to determine the best course of action.

2. X-rays and Imaging:
   X-rays or other imaging techniques are used to assess the tooth’s position, root structure, and any potential complications.

3. Anesthesia:
   We prioritize your comfort and offer various anesthesia options to numb the extraction site, ensuring a painless procedure.

4. Tooth Removal:
   Using specialized tools, our dentist gently loosens the tooth from its socket and carefully removes it.

5. Post-Extraction Care:
   After extraction, we provide detailed instructions on post-operative care, including pain management and wound healing.

Aftercare and Recovery:

Following a tooth extraction, it’s essential to follow our aftercare instructions carefully to ensure smooth healing:

• Oral Hygiene:
  Maintain good oral hygiene, but avoid brushing the extraction site for the first 24 hours.

• Eating Soft Foods:
  Stick to soft, cool foods initially, gradually reintroducing solid foods as healing progresses.

• Avoiding Certain Activities:
  Avoid smoking, using straws, or engaging in activities that could dislodge the blood clot and delay healing.

Replacing Extracted Teeth:

While we aim to preserve natural teeth, extracted teeth can be replaced with dental restorations such as:

• Dental Implants
• Bridges
• Dentures

These options restore your smile’s appearance and functionality, ensuring you can enjoy your favorite foods and maintain good oral health.
