Tooth Extraction

Tooth Extraction: A Gentle and Efficient Process

At My Neighbourhood Dentist in Marathahalli, we understand that tooth extraction can be a daunting prospect. However, our experienced dentists are committed to making the process as comfortable and stress-free as possible.

When is Tooth Extraction Necessary?

Tooth extraction may be necessary for various reasons, including:

  • Severe Tooth Decay: When a tooth is severely decayed and cannot be restored with a filling or crown.
  • Impacted Teeth: When a tooth, such as a wisdom tooth, is unable to erupt properly.
  • Periodontal Disease: Severe gum disease can lead to tooth loss.
  • Injury: A severely damaged tooth may need to be extracted.
  • Preparation for Dental Procedures: In some cases, teeth may need to be extracted to make room for dental implants or other procedures.

The Tooth Extraction Process

The tooth extraction process typically involves the following steps:

  1. Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to numb the area around the tooth.
  2. Tooth Removal: The dentist will use specialized tools to loosen and remove the tooth.
  3. Cleaning the Socket: The socket is cleaned to remove any remaining tissue or debris.
  4. Stitches (if necessary): In some cases, stitches may be used to close the wound.

Aftercare Instructions:

  • Rest: Avoid strenuous activity and rest for the first few days after the extraction.
  • Apply Pressure: Gently apply pressure to the extraction site with a gauze pad to control bleeding.
  • Ice Packs: Apply ice packs to reduce swelling and pain.
  • Soft Foods: Eat soft foods for the first few days to avoid irritating the extraction site.
  • Oral Hygiene: Brush your teeth gently, avoiding the extraction site.
  • Medication: Take any prescribed pain medication as directed.
