What is Tooth Extraction?
Tooth Extraction is a dental procedure where a tooth is carefully removed from its socket in the jawbone. It may be required when a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, or poses a risk to neighboring teeth.
At Athiban Dental Care, we use advanced local anesthesia and minimally invasive techniques to ensure a quick, comfortable, and stress-free experience for every patient.
Reasons for Tooth Extraction
- Severe tooth decay or infection beyond repair
- Advanced gum (periodontal) disease
- Broken or fractured teeth that cannot be restored
- Impacted wisdom teeth causing pain or swelling
- To prepare for orthodontic or prosthetic treatment
- Overcrowding of teeth in the mouth
Our team prioritizes preservation first — extraction is performed only when absolutely necessary.
Procedure for Tooth Extraction
- Examination & X-ray – Assess the tooth’s position and surrounding bone condition
- Anesthesia – Local anesthesia ensures a painless experience
- Tooth Loosening – Gentle movement to detach the tooth from surrounding tissues
- Extraction – The tooth is carefully removed using specialized instruments
- Socket Cleaning – The area is cleaned to prevent infection
- Post-Procedure Care – Gauze placement and after-care instructions provided
For surgical extractions (like wisdom teeth), minor incisions or bone adjustments may be required for complete removal.
Recovery and Aftercare
- Bite gently on gauze for 30–45 minutes to stop bleeding
- Avoid rinsing or spitting forcefully for 24 hours
- Apply cold compress for swelling if necessary
- Eat soft foods and stay hydrated
- Avoid smoking, alcohol, and straws during recovery
- Follow all prescribed medications and attend follow-up visits
Healing usually occurs within 7–10 days, depending on the case and after-care routine.
