Tooth extraction is a dental procedure used to remove a tooth from its socket. It may be needed when a tooth is badly damaged, decayed, infected, or cannot be saved.
A dentist in Kolkata may recommend extraction for severe tooth decay, infection, gum disease, or a damaged tooth. It may also be needed for some impacted or crowded teeth.
Local anesthesia is used to numb the tooth and nearby gums during the procedure. Some pain, swelling, or soreness may occur after the extraction.
A single tooth extraction often takes about 30 to 60 minutes. The time may be longer if the tooth is difficult to remove or if several teeth need to be extracted.
Soft foods are easier to eat during the first few days after extraction. Avoid very hot, hard, or crunchy foods while the area is healing.
Pain and swelling are usually more noticeable during the first few days and then improve. Your recovery time may depend on the type of extraction and your overall health.
You should be gentle around the extraction area when brushing your teeth. Avoid rinsing or spitting strongly during the first 24 hours because this can disturb the blood clot.
Avoid smoking, strenuous exercise, and touching the extraction area while it heals. These activities can increase the risk of bleeding and delay healing.
Contact your dentist in Kolkata if you have severe pain, fever, pus, or swelling that gets worse. These symptoms may need further dental treatment.
Yes, a missing tooth can often be replaced with a dental implant, bridge, or partial denture. Your dentist in Kolkata can suggest the suitable option after checking your teeth and gums.
