Dental Extractions
Dental Extractions at Saarthak Dental Clinic and Aesthetic Care
Dental extractions are a common procedure performed to remove a tooth from its socket in the bone. At Saarthak Dental Clinic, we understand that the need for an extraction can be a source of anxiety for many patients. That’s why we prioritize your comfort and care while ensuring a procedure that is safe and effective.
When is a Dental Extraction Needed?
There are several reasons why a dental extraction may be necessary, including:
Severe Tooth Decay: When a tooth is severely decayed or infected beyond repair, an extraction may be the best solution to alleviate pain and prevent the spread of infection.
Impacted Teeth: Commonly associated with wisdom teeth, impacted teeth occur when they do not emerge properly through the gums, leading to discomfort or infection.
Orthodontic Reasons: In some cases, teeth may need to be extracted to create space for orthodontic treatment or to align the bite.
Periodontal Disease: Advanced gum disease can weaken the support structures of teeth, necessitating extraction to preserve oral health.
Trauma: Teeth that are significantly damaged due to injury may require extraction to prevent further complications.
The Extraction Procedure
Consultation and Diagnosis: Dr. Priyanka S Mujumdar will begin with a thorough examination and X-rays to assess the condition of your tooth and determine if an extraction is necessary.
Anesthesia: To ensure maximum comfort during the procedure, local anesthesia will be administered to numb the area around the tooth.
The Extraction: Depending on the complexity of the extraction (simple or surgical), Dr. Mujumdar will carefully remove the tooth. A simple extraction involves loosening the tooth and removing it, while a surgical extraction may be necessary for impacted teeth, requiring a small incision in the gum.
Post-Extraction Care: After the extraction, you will receive detailed instructions on how to care for the extraction site. This typically includes recommendations for pain management, dietary adjustments, and oral hygiene practices.
