Tooth Extraction

Experience gentle and efficient tooth extraction services at our clinic, ensuring your comfort and swift recovery.

Overview

We don’t suggest extracting teeth unless absolutely necessary. In fact, if you damage a tooth, our preferred method of treatment is to restore it using dental veneers or dental crowns. 

If it is needed and if you agree with us, we can complete the extraction gently, quickly, and while keeping you comfortable.

Anesthesia

Before we get started, you will be sedated, and you will receive medication to numb the area. 

Time Needed

Thirty minutes is needed for each tooth to be extracted. 

Recovery

Some soring and swelling might occur for a few days after the extraction. This is perfectly natural and can be controlled by taking the medicine we suggest and placing a cold compress or ice pack on your face in the area where the tooth was extracted. In addition, we recommend not eating solid food within a couple of days.  

Return to Work

You can return to work immediately after the extraction. 

FAQ

Why might a tooth extraction be necessary?

Tooth extraction is considered when a tooth is severely damaged or decayed beyond repair, or when it poses a risk to surrounding teeth and oral health. Our preferred approach is to restore teeth using veneers or crowns whenever possible.

Before starting, you will be sedated and receive local anesthesia to numb the area. The extraction itself is performed gently and quickly, ensuring your comfort throughout the process.

On average, each tooth extraction takes about thirty minutes to complete, though this can vary based on the tooth’s condition and complexity.

After extraction, some soreness and swelling may occur for a few days. This is normal and can be managed with recommended medication and cold compresses applied to the extraction site. It’s advisable to avoid solid foods for a couple of days post-extraction.

You can typically return to work immediately after the extraction. However, it’s important to follow post-operative care instructions provided by your dentist to ensure proper healing.
