What Is Tooth Extraction?
Tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth that can’t be saved or is causing ongoing problems — whether due to severe decay, infection, damage, overcrowding, or impaction (such as wisdom teeth). While our team always considers options to preserve a natural tooth first, extraction is sometimes the safest and most effective path forward for your oral health.
At Glam Aesthetics, extractions are performed with a focus on comfort, safety, and clear aftercare guidance to support smooth healing.
What Does It Address?
- Severely decayed or broken teeth beyond repair
- Advanced gum disease affecting tooth stability
- Impacted or problematic wisdom teeth
- Overcrowding (sometimes needed before orthodontic treatment)
- Infected teeth that pose a risk to overall oral health
- Baby teeth that haven’t fallen out on schedule
How It Works
- Consultation & Assessment — Your tooth is examined, often with an X-ray, to confirm extraction is the right course of action and to plan the safest approach.
- Anesthesia — Local anesthesia is administered to fully numb the area, ensuring a comfortable procedure.
- Extraction — The tooth is carefully loosened and removed using appropriate dental instruments and techniques.
- Aftercare Guidance — Detailed instructions are provided on managing the extraction site, including bleeding control, diet, and pain management.
The procedure length varies depending on complexity, typically 20–60 minutes.
Benefits
- Removes a source of pain, infection, or ongoing dental issues
- Prevents the spread of infection to surrounding teeth or tissue
- Can be a necessary step before other treatments (implants, orthodontics)
- Performed with a focus on comfort and minimizing complications
- Clear guidance for smooth, uncomplicated healing
What to Expect / Downtime
Mild swelling, tenderness, and some bleeding at the extraction site are normal for the first day or two. Most people can resume light activities within a day, while more strenuous activity should be avoided for a few days. Following your aftercare instructions closely — including soft foods and gentle oral hygiene around the site — supports proper healing and reduces the risk of complications.
FAQs
Is tooth extraction painful? Local anesthesia ensures the procedure itself is not painful. Some soreness or tenderness afterward is normal and can typically be managed with guidance from your dentist.
How long does healing take? Initial healing typically takes about 1–2 weeks, though complete healing of the bone and gum tissue can take several months. Your dentist will guide you through what to expect for your specific case.
Will I need a replacement for the extracted tooth? This depends on which tooth was removed and your individual needs — options like implants or bridges may be discussed if replacement is recommended for function or appearance.
What can I eat after an extraction? Soft, cool foods are recommended for the first day or two, avoiding hot, spicy, or hard foods, as well as using a straw, which can disrupt healing. Your dentist will provide specific dietary guidance based on your procedure.
