What is Dental Extraction?
Tooth extraction is a dental procedure in which a tooth is removed from its socket in the jawbone. This procedure is performed by dental professionals who prioritize making it as comfortable as possible for the patient. Extraction can serve as the initial step toward achieving a smile you can be confident in.
This treatment is typically recommended for irreparable tooth damage caused by decay, advanced gum disease, impacted wisdom teeth, or severe trauma.
How it works
1
Examination
The condition of the tooth, position, and roots are examined using X-rays to plan the extraction.
2
Anaesthesia
An anesthetic is then applied to numb the tooth and the surrounding area before extraction, ensuring the patient's comfort throughout the procedure.
3
Loosening the tooth
The extraction process commences using a loosening instrument, incision, or by sectioning the tooth into smaller pieces.
4
Extraction
The dentist carefully extracts the tooth with great care taken during the procedure.
5
After-care
The dentist provides follow-up appointments and comprehensive instructions for post-operative care.
