Tooth Extractions: What to Expect ?

Losing a tooth can be a stressful experience. At Om Dental Clinic, Implant & TMJ Center, we understand the importance of clear communication and gentle care throughout the tooth extraction process. This guide will explain what to expect when undergoing a tooth extraction at our clinic.

Reasons for Tooth Extraction:

The Extraction Process

The specific procedure will vary depending on the complexity of the extraction. Here’s a general overview:

Local Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to numb the area around the tooth, ensuring minimal discomfort during the procedure.
Tooth Loosening: The dentist uses specialized instruments to gently loosen the tooth in its socket, separating it from the surrounding bone and ligament.
Tooth Removal: Once loosened, the dentist carefully removes the tooth.
Cleaning and Closure: The socket is cleaned and disinfected to prevent infection. Stitches may be placed to close the gum tissue and promote healing.
