Reasons You May Need Teeth Extraction
Permanent teeth are designed to last a lifetime, but there are circumstances where extraction becomes necessary to address dental issues or prevent future complications. For instance, an impacted wisdom tooth or an infected tooth can lead to serious problems that require removal.
Teeth may be extracted for various reasons, including:
- Severe decay or damage to a tooth
- Presence of gum disease
- To prevent further dental complications
- Significant infection in a tooth
- Aesthetic improvements as part of orthodontic treatment
- Non-functional teeth
- Injury to the mouth or adjacent teeth
- Baby teeth that do not fall out in time for adult teeth to emerge
- To create space for a dental implant
- Impacted wisdom teeth, which are a common reason for extraction
- Swollen, irritated, bleeding, or red gums
- Overcrowding of teeth
- Jaw pain
Affordable Tooth Removal With All The Benefits
Teeth extraction can provide several benefits, especially when tooth retention isn’t possible. While we always aim to preserve natural teeth, there are instances where removal is necessary. Throughout the process, we ensure you are fully informed and ready to address any questions you might have. Extracting a tooth can effectively treat severe abscesses, addressing the root cause rather than just alleviating symptoms. It helps prevent further dental complications, clears infections, and helps stop the spread of bacteria. Additionally, extraction can enhance your overall appearance and restore proper function to your bite. It also promotes healing of irritated, red, or swollen gums, alleviates jaw pain, and creates adequate space for surrounding teeth. By removing a problematic tooth, we protect adjacent teeth from damage and prevent tooth decay from affecting other teeth or surrounding tissues, ultimately relieving mouth pain.
Does Having a Tooth Removed Hurt?
While it’s likely to be uncomfortable, a tooth should not hurt during the procedure at all! At Gentle Dental we provide extra numbing and never proceed with extraction if there is any pain persisting.
After a tooth extraction, you may experience some discomfort once the anesthesia wears off. While healing times can vary based on several factors, most of the recovery occurs within four to seven. Typically, pain decreases significantly after the first three days, and any discomfort can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
The first two days post-extraction require the most care and attention. It’s normal to have some mild bleeding for up to 24 hours following the procedure. It’s crucial to monitor the blood clot that forms in the socket where the tooth was removed, as maintaining this clot is essential for proper healing.
