Dental Extractions: Understanding the Process

Why Dental Surgery is Necessary?
Tooth extraction may be necessary for a variety of reasons, including severe tooth decay, overcrowding, and damage from trauma. One of the most common reasons for tooth extraction is wisdom teeth removal. Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, typically erupt in late adolescence or early adulthood and can cause pain, infection, and crowding. At Divine Dental Spa, we offer comprehensive oral surgery services, including wisdom teeth removal.
What Are Extractions?
Are a dental procedure where a tooth or teeth are removed from the mouth. There are several reasons why a tooth may need to be extracted, including:
- Tooth decay that cannot be treated with a filling or crown
- Gum disease or periodontal disease that has caused the tooth to become loose
- Impacted wisdom teeth
- Crowding of teeth
- Infection that cannot be treated with antibiotics
- In preparation for orthodontic treatment
The Extraction Process
At Divine Dental Spa, our extraction specialists follow a carefully planned treatment plan for each patient’s individual needs. During the procedure, we take several steps to ensure that our patients are comfortable and free of pain.
First, we use local anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth or teeth that will be extracted. For patients who are anxious or nervous about the procedure, we may also offer sedation options to help them relax.
Next, we carefully loosen the tooth from the jawbone and gently remove it. For more complex extractions, we may need to make a small incision in the gum tissue to access the tooth.
Once the tooth has been removed, we instruct our patients on how to care for the extraction site. This includes keeping the area clean, avoiding drinking from straws, and refraining from smoking. It is also important to avoid vigorous activity for at least 24 hours after the procedure.
Emergency Oral Surgery
At Divine Dental Spa, we understand that dental emergencies can happen at any time. That’s why we offer emergency oral surgery to our patients. If you are experiencing severe pain, swelling, or bleeding, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We will make every effort to accommodate your needs and provide the necessary treatment to alleviate your pain and preserve your oral health.
Aftercare and Recovery
Following a tooth extraction, a blood clot will form in the socket where the tooth used to be. It is important to avoid dislodging this clot, as it is essential for proper healing. Patients should also be careful when near the extraction site and wear gloves when applying makeup or using skincare products.
Some mild discomfort and swelling are normal after a tooth extraction. Patients can use over-the-counter pain medication and apply a cold compress to the affected area to manage these symptoms. We also recommend eating soft foods and avoiding hot, spicy, or crunchy foods for several days after the procedure.
The Importance of Oral Hygiene
Maintaining good oral hygiene is essential for preventing the need for tooth extraction. Regular brushing and flossing, along with routine dental check-ups, can help prevent tooth decay and other oral health problems. At Divine Dental Spa, we are committed to educating our patients about the importance of oral hygiene and providing the resources and tools they need to maintain a healthy smile.
