Teeth Extractions

What are Teeth Extractions?

If you tooth is severely damaged and cannot be repaired by conservative means, then it might have to be extracted in order to remove infection, relieve pain and prevent damage to surrounding tissues. This means teeth extractions might be a necessary part of oral care. Dental procedures like extractions of teeth might seem quite daunting. People usually harbor and associate teeth extraction procedures with pain and blood.

However, the actual process is quite painless, and the post-recovery rate is quite fast too.

Reasons for Teeth Extraction

Dental diseases such as tooth decay and periodontal gum diseases are the prime reason why a dentist recommends a tooth extraction procedure.

Usually, people with healthy teeth might undergo teeth extraction procedures to reduce the overcrowding so that the bite can be corrected and rectified. Teeth extractions may be required for orthodontic correction of teeth.

Wisdom Tooth Removal

Most people have wisdom teeth but usually do not find the means to keep them hygienic, or there might be an insufficient place to harbor them. Sometimes, this might lead to chipping off the wisdom tooth that might lead to tooth decay or cavity formation.

This might proliferate to subsequent regions and cause immense pain in the gums and jaw. Wisdom tooth removal helps a person relieve that unnerving pain and protect their teeth from being damaged or decayed.

Expert oral surgeons carefully perform the surgical procedure, and at Designer Smiles, this process is extremely smooth. This means you do not have to worry about any procedures because they are relatively harmless and painless.

Tooth Extraction Process

At Designer Smiles, we aim to make sure that our patients are as comfortable as they can be. We are known for our pain free and anxiety free teeth extractions.

At first, the area is numbed with a local anesthetic. This anesthesia can be with the use of an injection that takes a couple of minutes to sedate and numb the gum and jaw region.

Teeth extractions are a straightforward process wherein your dentist simply loosens the teeth and removes it with the help of forceps.

However, surgical teeth extractions might be necessary due to complications like:

● Broken tooth at the gum line.
● The tooth may have curvy or large roots.

However, there is nothing to worry about because these tooth extraction processes are virtually painless.
Once the extraction procedure is done, a gauge ball is placed on the gap to stop the bleeding.

Tooth Extraction Recovery and Tooth Extraction After Care

The tooth extraction process ends with placing gauze on the wound, and it is essential to place the gauze because it helps the blood clot. Blood clotting is the first step toward healing the wound.

The tooth extraction aftercare is extremely vital in order to have a swift recovery, and the care you exercise is more critical than the procedure itself.

During the tooth extraction recovery process, discomfort might be a familiar sensation, and pain ranges from mild to extreme. Often, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are prescribed to relieve the pain.

In general, it only takes a day or two to recover from the teeth extractions, and by the second day, the swelling subsides. Following a liquid diet consisting of fruit juices or soft foods can increase the healing rate since less pressure and strain are put on these teeth during soft food consumption.

Tooth Extraction Cost

The teeth extraction costs usually depend on which type of tooth is being extracted and the process of its removal. At Designer Smiles, we ensure that you get quality and premium services at reasonable rates. You can contact us for more information and details now!
