How does Tooth Extraction Work?

Work

The procedure begins with a thorough evaluation and X-rays to assess the tooth’s condition and surrounding structures. Local anesthesia or sedation ensures a pain-free experience. For simple extractions, the dentist loosens and removes the tooth using specialized tools. Surgical extractions involve making an incision to remove impacted or broken teeth. Our skilled team ensures that you are comfortable throughout the process and carefully monitors your recovery. We may recommend follow-up visits to ensure proper healing and address any concerns. Aftercare instructions are provided to promote healing, including tips on managing discomfort and maintaining oral hygiene. With the right care, you can expect a smooth recovery and a restored, healthy smile.
