Tooth Extraction (Normal, Wisdom Tooth, Surgical)
Crown Dental Clinic has been providing exceptional tooth extraction services since 1995. Our experienced team of dental professionals utilizes the latest techniques and technology to ensure a safe and comfortable tooth extraction experience for our patients. We offer a range of tooth extraction services, including normal, wisdom, and surgical tooth extractions.
Symptoms:
Tooth extraction may be necessary if you experience severe tooth pain, gum swelling or inflammation, tooth decay, damage to the tooth that cannot be repaired, or overcrowding of teeth in your mouth. In the case of wisdom teeth, symptoms can include pain in the back of the mouth, difficulty opening your mouth, or swelling in the gums.
Procedure:
Before your tooth extraction, your dentist will assess your tooth and discuss your options for anesthesia or sedation. During the procedure, your dentist will carefully remove the tooth from its socket. For surgical extractions, your dentist may need to make an incision in your gums to access the tooth.
Advantages:
Tooth extraction can alleviate pain and discomfort caused by tooth decay, damage, or overcrowding. Removing wisdom teeth can prevent future dental problems, such as infections, decay, or misalignment of teeth. Additionally, tooth extraction can help improve overall dental health and prevent more serious dental issues from developing.
After Treatment Care:
After your tooth extraction, your dentist will provide instructions for proper aftercare, which may include:
- Applying ice to the affected area to reduce swelling
- Avoiding hard or crunchy foods for a few days
- Taking prescribed pain medication as needed
- Rinsing your mouth with warm salt water to promote healing
- Brushing and flossing gently around the extraction site to prevent infection
It's important to follow these instructions carefully to ensure a speedy and successful recovery. If you experience any unusual symptoms or complications, be sure to contact your dentist right away.
