What Is Simple Tooth Extraction?
Our major goal at Dental Aesthetics is to preserve the natural teeth of every patient and keep them healthy for longer. However, there are times when it is in the best interest of the patient to get their tooth extracted. Simple tooth extraction, also called tooth pulling, involves the removal of entire teeth from its socket in the jawbone. We use an anaesthetic to keep the patient from feeling the pain during the procedure and use forceps to loosen the tooth and eventually remove it.
When Is Simple Tooth Extraction Needed?
Simple tooth extraction is needed in many circumstances, commonly when a tooth is damaged extremely. Although the dentists at Dental Aesthetics try their best to repair a tooth with dental onlay, crown restoration, implants, dental filling, or any other treatment, sometimes, extraction is the only option. Situations in which one might need to undergo simple tooth extraction include significant tooth decay, broken or cracked teeth, milk teeth not falling timely, and extra teeth blocking other teeth from erupting.
Benefits of Simple Tooth Extraction
Where simple tooth extraction is considered the right treatment option, there can be many advantages to undergoing the procedure. If a tooth is infected, removing it obviously stops the infection, and it also ends any pain and swelling caused by the infection. If the tooth is being extracted because of overcrowding, removing it also allows the rest of the teeth to straighten properly, either with the help of orthodontic treatment or on their own.
Extraction Procedure
After giving local anesthesia and sedation (for anxious patients), the tooth is loosened with the help of a specific instrument. Once the tooth is loosened and a bone socket holding that tooth widened, forceps are gently applied to grasp the tooth and remove it slowly. After removing the tooth patient is instructed to bite on gauze for 30 minutes and then take something cold like ice cream or juice to stop the bleeding. Besides, a soft diet for 24 – 48 hours from the opposite side to chew is advised. Furthermore, 12-hour rest along with painkillers is advised.
