Things to consider
Neighbours may tilt.

What is Tooth Extraction?
Severe decay, failed root canal, advanced gum disease, cracked roots, orthodontic crowding or impacted wisdom teeth are common reasons. Saving the tooth with RCT or other care is considered when realistic.

The process
Local anaesthesia is used. Simple extractions involve loosening the tooth. Surgical extractions may need a small gum incision or sectioning. Instructions cover gauze, rest, diet and when to call for bleeding or swelling.
Aftercare
Avoid smoking, vigorous rinsing and straws on the day of surgery as advised. Replacement options such as implants or bridges can be discussed once healing allows.

Whether this treatment is appropriate depends on individual clinical evaluation.
Aftercare

Bite on gauze for the time instructed. Rest with your head elevated. Do not smoke. Mild oozing can last hours.
Start gentle salt rinses only when you were told to. Do not poke the socket with a toothpick.
Dry socket presents as later throbbing pain and needs a clinic dressing—not random powders.
After healing, a gap may be left, or replaced with an implant or a bridge when conditions allow. That is a separate plan.
Does extraction hurt? You should be numb during the procedure. Pressure is expected. Soreness afterwards is common.
When can I eat? After numbness fades, start with soft foods away from the site.

Your treatment journey
-
You describe what is bothering you and share medical and dental history. Questions come before any treatment is planned.
-
Teeth, gums and bite are examined in the chair so the concern is seen, not only described.
-
An X-ray or OPG shows root shape and nearby structures. CBCT is used when extra 3D detail would change a surgical extraction.
-
Options, likely visits, aftercare and alternatives are discussed so you can decide.
-
The tooth is numbed and removed. Surgical steps such as a small incision or sectioning are used when needed.
-
Gauze, diet and warning signs are explained before you leave. Replacement options can wait until healing allows.
What happens during the procedure?
Assessment
Whether the tooth can still be saved is considered first. Imaging is used when it would change surgery.
Anaesthesia
Local anaesthetic is given so you should not feel sharp pain during removal.
Removal
A simple extraction loosens the tooth. Surgical removal may need a small incision or sectioning.
Instructions
Gauze, rest, diet and when to call for bleeding or swelling are explained before you leave.
Later options
A gap may be left or later replaced with an implant or bridge when healing allows.
Potential advantages and things to consider
Potential advantages
Removing a source of infection
When a tooth cannot be saved, extraction can stop a cycle of abscesses.
Clearing a plan for other care
Orthodontics or implants sometimes need a hopeless tooth removed first.
Things to consider
A gap can drift
Neighbours may tilt. Implants or bridges are optional later, not automatic.
Surgical risk
Bleeding, dry socket, sinus issues in some upper teeth, and rare nerve injury in selected lower sites.
Saving first when realistic
Root canal treatment is considered when the tooth can still be restored.
How technology supports treatment planning
The Dental Hut in Airoli has in-house CBCT and OPG. Imaging may assist evaluation when it is clinically required. It is not a scan for every patient.
Cone-beam CT creates a 3D volume of teeth and jaws. It may be used for implant channels, some impacted teeth and selected endodontic questions.
An OPG is a 2D panoramic X-ray of both jaws. It is often enough for a broad survey of teeth, wisdom teeth and jaw relationships.
A clinical examination of teeth, gums and bite remains the starting point. Imaging is added only when extra detail is likely to change the plan.
What happens after treatment?
Follow the instructions provided by your dentist.
Immediately after
Bite on gauze for the time instructed. Rest with your head elevated. Do not smoke. Mild oozing can last hours.
First few days
Start gentle salt rinses only when you were told to. Do not poke the socket with a toothpick.
Ongoing care
Discuss whether you want to replace the tooth. Leaving a gap is sometimes acceptable; it is still a decision.
Follow-up
Dry socket presents as later throbbing pain and needs a clinic dressing—not random powders.
When to contact your dentist
Consider getting in touch if you notice:
- Persistent or worsening pain
- Significant swelling
- Unexpected symptoms in the treated area
- A temporary restoration that comes off
- Bleeding that does not settle as advised
What can affect treatment cost?
Fees are quoted after examination.
- Treatment complexity
- Number of teeth involved
- Materials used
- Diagnostic requirements
- Additional procedures
- Individual treatment planning
