Tooth extraction is a procedure in which a dentist removes a tooth from its socket. It may be needed when a tooth is badly damaged, decayed, infected, or cannot be saved.
A dentist may suggest extraction for severe tooth decay, advanced gum disease, a broken tooth, or an impacted tooth. The dentist will first check the tooth and decide if removal is necessary.
Local anesthesia is usually given to numb the tooth and nearby gums during the procedure. Some pain, swelling, or discomfort may occur after the anesthesia wears off.
A simple tooth extraction may take about 30 minutes, but the time can vary. Difficult extractions or removal of several teeth may take longer.
Soft foods such as yogurt, rice, pasta, and eggs are usually easier to eat after extraction. Avoid very hard foods and follow the eating instructions given by your dentist.
Most people can return to normal activities within a few days after a simple extraction. The jawbone can take several weeks to heal completely.
Avoid smoking, vaping, strenuous activity, and using straws during the early healing period. You should also avoid touching or disturbing the extraction area because this can affect healing.
Some bleeding, swelling, bruising, and discomfort can occur after the procedure. Less common problems include infection, dry socket, delayed healing, and nerve injury.
Tooth extraction is a common dental procedure provided by qualified dental professionals in Navi Mumbai. A dentist can examine your tooth and explain whether extraction is the right treatment for you.
Ask about the reason for extraction, the procedure, possible risks, and expected recovery time. You can also ask about options for replacing the missing tooth after extraction.
