Understanding the Extraction Process
Our approach to tooth extractions prioritizes your comfort and wellbeing. Before the procedure, our dentist will perform a thorough examination to determine the best course of action. This may involve taking X-rays to assess the condition of the tooth and surrounding bone. We use state-of-the-art technology to ensure precision and reduce discomfort.
During the extraction, we use local anesthesia to numb the area, so you will not feel pain. If you experience anxiety or have specific medical conditions, we offer sedation options to help you relax. Our team is dedicated to answering all your questions and addressing any concerns before, during and after the procedure.
Post-Extraction Care
Proper care after a tooth extraction is crucial for a smooth recovery. We will provide you with detailed instructions to follow at home. These include:
- Managing Pain: Use prescribed pain relievers as directed and apply ice packs to reduce swelling.
- Diet: Stick to soft foods and avoid using straws, which can dislodge the blood clot and delay healing.
- Oral Hygiene: Keep your mouth clean, but avoid brushing the extraction site for the first 24 hours. Rinse gently with salt water starting the day after the extraction.
Following these guidelines will help prevent complications and promote faster healing.
