Dental Extractions
Dental extractions are necessary for teeth that cannot be saved due to severe damage or infection. The procedure ensures comfort with local anesthetics and includes comprehensive post-extraction care for a smooth recovery.
Unfortunately, not all teeth can be saved and may need to be extracted. This includes teeth that are very loose, severely broken, infected, or causing significant pain.
Depending on your specific needs, antibiotics may be required before the extraction to ensure effective numbing. In certain cases, referral to a specialist oral surgeon may be necessary.
Step-by-Step Process for Your Procedures
Initial Consultation
During your initial consultation, our experienced dentists will assess your oral health, discuss your concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Treatment Process
During a dental extraction, the tooth and surrounding gums are numbed with a local anesthetic to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure. While you may feel some pressure, you should not experience any pain. If discomfort occurs, additional anesthetic will be administered.
Recovery and Aftercare
After the extraction, you will be provided with gauze to bite on and may receive prescriptions for pain medications and antibiotics to aid in your recovery. Complete healing from a dental extraction typically takes 6-8 weeks.
