What is a Tooth Extraction?
Tooth extraction involves the removal of a tooth from its socket in the bone. It is a common procedure used to address a variety of dental issues.
Reasons for Tooth Extractions:
- Severe Decay or Infection: When a tooth cannot be saved by root canal therapy or other treatments.
- Orthodontic Treatment: To create room for teeth that are being moved into their proper position.
- Impacted Teeth: Commonly removed in the case of impacted wisdom teeth that may cause pain and dental complications.
- Risk of Infection: In cases where a patient’s immune system is compromised, even the risk of infection may necessitate extraction.
The Extraction Process:
- Pre-Procedure Examination: Includes X-rays and a review of the patient’s medical history to plan the safest approach to extraction.
- Anesthesia and Sedation Options: Ensures that the procedure is as pain-free as possible.
- Post-Extraction Care: Detailed instructions are given to promote healing and prevent complications such as infection or dry socket.
