Common Questions About Tooth Removal

Will I feel pain during the tooth removal procedure?

No, you shouldn’t feel pain during the procedure. Your dentist will numb the area with a local anesthetic to ensure you’re comfortable. If you have dental anxiety or want additional relief, we offer sedation, including laughing gas. You may experience some mild discomfort after the procedure, but we’ll provide you with aftercare instructions and recommend pain management options to support your recovery.

How long does it take to recover from a tooth extraction?

Recovery time depends on the complexity of the extraction, but most patients feel better within a few days to a week. During this time, you’ll need to follow aftercare instructions, such as avoiding hard foods, using ice packs to reduce swelling, and keeping the area clean. For more complex extractions, like wisdom teeth or multiple teeth, healing may take longer. Your dentist will monitor your progress during follow-up visits to ensure proper healing.

What are my options for replacing a missing tooth after an extraction?

After your extraction, your dentist will discuss replacement options based on your needs and goals. Common solutions include dental implants, which provide a lifelike replacement for single or multiple missing teeth, and bridges that fill gaps using nearby teeth as support. If you’re missing several teeth or an entire arch, implant-supported dentures or All-on-X implants may be recommended. Replacing the tooth helps restore your bite, maintain jawbone health, and enhance the appearance of your smile.
