Tooth extraction is a procedure performed when alternative treatments are not viable or effective. This treatment is used to remove compromised teeth that cannot be remedied through traditional means, such as fillings or root canals. Extraction preserves the integrity and health of the surrounding teeth and gums.

In cases of impacted wisdom teeth or severe damage or decay, surgical tooth extraction may be required. Surgical tooth extraction is used for teeth partially or entirely beneath the gumline. The process involves making tiny incisions in the gums to access the tooth. For some patients, bone tissue removal is necessary during this process.

Following the extraction of a tooth, mild pain and swelling are to be expected. You can manage the discomfort by using over-the-counter pain medication or prescription pain relievers as prescribed. You may also use an ice pack on the outer cheek to ease inflammation. Refrain from smoking, high-impact activity, and hard foods for at least 48-72 hours.
