Tooth extractions are dental procedures in which the dentist removes a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. While preserving your natural teeth is always our priority, extractions may be necessary to address issues like severe decay, damage that cannot be repaired, or overcrowding in preparation for orthodontic treatment. Our team at Dentistry on Main Street uses advanced techniques and anesthesia to ensure a pain-free and stress-free experience.
With modern anesthesia and techniques, tooth extractions are typically pain-free. Any discomfort during recovery can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and following our aftercare instructions.
Healing times vary but typically take 7-10 days. During this period, it’s essential to follow your dentist’s advice to avoid complications like dry socket.
In many cases, replacing an extracted tooth with a dental implant, bridge, or denture is recommended to maintain your smile’s function and appearance. We’ll discuss your options during your visit.
If you’re experiencing tooth pain or need an extraction, Dentistry on Main Street is here to help. Please contact our office.
