Frequently Asked Questions about Tooth Extractions
Why might I need a tooth extraction?
Extractions may be required if a tooth is extensively damaged or decayed beyond repair, if there’s overcrowding, or if impacted wisdom teeth are causing complications. In some cases, a dental filling might be a viable alternative to extraction if the tooth can be saved.
What can I expect during the extraction process?
Patients will receive local anesthesia to numb the area, ensuring a pain-free experience. Our team will then carefully remove the tooth while maintaining your comfort throughout the procedure.
How should I care for my mouth after the extraction?
Post-extraction, it’s vital to follow our care instructions, which include avoiding strenuous activities, maintaining oral hygiene, and taking prescribed medications to manage any discomfort.
Can I eat normally after a tooth extraction?
Initially, it's advisable to stick to soft foods and avoid anything too hot or hard. Gradually, you can reintroduce regular foods as you heal.
