FAQ

Tooth extraction may be necessary if a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, infected, or causing crowding or alignment issues.

Your dentist will ensure your comfort during the procedure by administering local anesthesia. You may experience some pressure, but you should not feel pain during the extraction.

The healing process typically takes about 1-2 weeks. However, it may vary depending on the complexity of the extraction and individual healing abilities.

Follow your dentist’s instructions, including taking prescribed medications, avoiding smoking and alcohol, eating soft foods, and practicing good oral hygiene.

Depending on the location and function of the extracted tooth, your dentist may recommend a replacement option such as a dental implant, bridge, or denture.

The cost of a tooth extraction can vary depending on factors like the location of the tooth and the complexity of the extraction. It’s best to consult with your dentist for an accurate cost estimate.

While complications are rare, they can include infection, dry socket, nerve damage, or damage to adjacent teeth. Your dentist will discuss these risks and take measures to minimize them.

It’s recommended to avoid hot and hard foods immediately after the extraction. As the healing progresses, you can gradually introduce a normal diet, but it’s important to be cautious and follow your dentist’s guidelines.
