If you have any questions about tooth extractions, we’ve got answers.
We use local anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth, so you shouldn’t feel any pain during the extraction. You may experience some discomfort or pressure, but this is usually manageable.
Most patients recover from a simple extraction within a few days. More complex extractions may take longer to heal. We’ll provide you with detailed post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
It’s important to take things easy for a day or two, as rigorous activity could delay healing or trigger a dry socket. Here are some tips to help you heal quickly and comfortably:
- Avoid Smoking and Straws: Smoking and using straws can dislodge the blood clot and delay healing. Try to avoid these for at least 48 hours.
- Rest: Take it easy for the first 24 hours after the extraction. Avoid strenuous activities that could dislodge the blood clot.
- Ice Packs: Apply ice packs to your cheek for 10-minute intervals to reduce swelling.
- Medications: Take any prescribed medications as directed to manage pain and prevent infection.
- Soft Foods: For the first few days, stick to soft foods like yogurt, applesauce, and mashed potatoes. Avoid hot, spicy, and crunchy foods.
- Oral Hygiene: Keep your mouth clean, but be gentle around the extraction site. Avoid vigorously rinsing your mouth for the first 24 hours.
Because most simple extractions are due to issues like decay or gum disease, preventative dental care is key. Plan to treat any issues early before they spread deeper into the tooth. Earlier treatments are more conservative and help preserve healthy tooth structure.
Most dental insurance plans cover tooth extraction, at least partially. Our team can help you understand your insurance benefits and answer any questions you may have.
