What to Expect During a Tooth Extraction

The tooth extraction procedure will vary depending on the complexity of the extraction and the location of the tooth. Here's a general overview:

• Consultation: During your initial consultation, your dentist will discuss your medical history, perform a thorough examination of your teeth and gums, and X-rays to determine the best course of treatment.
• Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is typically used to numb the area around the tooth. In some cases, general anesthesia may be required.
• Extraction: Once the area is numb, your dentist will carefully loosen and remove the tooth.
• Stitches: Stitches may be placed to close the gum tissue.

Recovery After Tooth Extraction

Following a tooth extraction, it is important to follow your dentist's instructions carefully to promote healing and minimize discomfort. These may include:

• Applying ice packs to the area to reduce swelling
• Taking pain medication as prescribed
• Avoiding strenuous activity
• Maintaining a soft diet
