We Ensure Your Comfort and Care
Understanding the tooth extraction process helps you prepare for the procedure and manage post-extraction care effectively.
Simple Extraction
This procedure is performed when the tooth is visible in the mouth and can be removed using forceps. It is typically used for teeth that are decayed or damaged but have roots that are easily accessible.
Surgical Extraction
Used for teeth that are not easily accessible, such as those that are broken or have not erupted fully. It involves making an incision in the gum to remove the tooth.
Wisdom Tooth Removal
This procedure is necessary when wisdom teeth become impacted or cause crowding. It often requires surgical extraction due to the position of the teeth.
Post-Extraction Care
After extraction, follow specific care instructions to ensure proper healing. This includes managing pain, keeping the area clean, and avoiding foods that may irritate the extraction site.
