Tooth Removal Benefits, When NecNecessary

  • Pain Relief: Tooth extraction can provide immediate relief from the persistent pain and discomfort caused by severely damaged or infected teeth, allowing individuals to go about their daily activities without distraction.
  • Prevention of Damage to Adjacent Teeth: Extracting a severely damaged or decayed tooth that cannot be restored may prevent further damage to adjacent teeth.
  • Management of Impacted Teeth: Extraction may be necessary for impacted wisdom teeth that are unable to fully erupt through the gum line. Removing impacted teeth can prevent pain, infection, and complications such as cysts or damage to adjacent teeth.

Tooth Removal

Tooth Extraction Procedure

Get ready for a painless journey! Learn about the tooth extraction procedure in simple terms.

Initial Examination

Before the extraction, Dr. Sinha will examine the tooth and surrounding tissues using dental tools and possibly X-rays to assess the condition of the tooth and its root structure. This helps in planning the extraction procedure.

Anesthesia

Dr. Sinha will administer local anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth to be extracted. In some cases, particularly for complex extractions or anxious patients, sedation may also be used to help the patient relax during the procedure.

Extraction

Using specialized dental instruments, Dr. Sinha will carefully loosen the tooth from its socket in the jawbone and gently remove it. Depending on the tooth’s condition, this process may involve rocking the tooth back and forth to widen the socket before extraction.

Post-Extraction Care

Once the tooth is removed, Dr. Sinha may need to stitch the extraction site to promote healing and minimize bleeding. They will provide instructions on post-extraction care, including how to manage any discomfort, reduce swelling, and prevent infection.

Follow-Up

Dr. Sinha will schedule a follow-up appointment to monitor the healing progress and ensure that there are no complications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Curious about tooth extraction? Get answers to common FAQs here. From the procedure itself to recovery tips, find everything you need to know about this dental treatment.

Why might I need a tooth extraction?

Tooth extractions are necessary for various reasons, including severe decay, infection, crowding, or damage beyond repair. Our skilled team at PS Dental assesses your oral health thoroughly to determine if extraction is the best course of action.
At PS Dental, we prioritize patient comfort. We utilize local anesthesia to ensure you’re comfortable throughout the procedure. Additionally, our experienced dentists employ gentle techniques to minimize discomfort and promote a smooth extraction process.
The duration of a tooth extraction varies depending on factors such as the tooth’s condition and complexity. Generally, straightforward extractions may take around 20-40 minutes. However, more complex cases might require additional time. Rest assured, our team at PS Dental works efficiently while prioritizing your safety and comfort.
After a tooth extraction, it’s normal to experience some discomfort and swelling. Our team provides detailed post-operative instructions to aid in a smooth recovery. This includes guidance on managing pain, swelling, and proper oral hygiene practices. With proper care and attention, you can expect to heal effectively and resume your daily activities soon after the procedure.
While tooth extractions are generally safe, there are potential risks such as infection, bleeding, or damage to surrounding teeth or tissues. At PS Dental, our experienced team takes every precaution to minimize these risks through thorough evaluation, meticulous technique, and post-operative care instructions.
It’s essential to follow pre-operative instructions provided by our team at PS Dental. Generally, you should avoid eating or drinking anything for a few hours before the procedure, especially if you’ll be receiving anesthesia. This helps reduce the risk of complications during the extraction process.
At PS Dental, patient comfort and safety are paramount. Depending on the complexity of the extraction and your preferences, we may recommend local anesthesia to numb the area, ensuring you’re comfortable throughout the procedure. For more complex cases or anxious patients, other sedation options may be available to help you relax during the treatment.
While recovery times may vary, most patients can resume normal activities within a day or two following a tooth extraction. However, it’s essential to avoid strenuous activities and follow our post-operative care instructions diligently to promote optimal healing. Our team at PS Dental will provide personalized guidance based on your specific situation to ensure a smooth recovery process.
Depending on the location of the extracted tooth and your overall oral health, our team at PS Dental may recommend replacement options such as dental implants, bridges, or dentures. These options not only restore your smile’s appearance but also maintain proper oral function and prevent issues such as shifting teeth or bone loss.
The cost of a tooth extraction can vary depending on factors such as the complexity of the procedure and your dental insurance coverage. At PS Dental, we offer transparent pricing and work with you to discuss all associated costs upfront. Additionally, our team can help explore available payment options or financing plans to ensure you receive the care you need within your budget.

Had my cleaning done with Amanda who was incredibly thorough and such a pleasure to chat with. Had my cleaning done about 20 minutes after being shook by the little earthquake so my anxiety level was a little high. Amanda was gentle and very informative throughout the cleaning. She made me feel calm and relaxed in her care. Dr. Sinha then came in to check my X-rays and my teeth. I love that he takes his time and doesn’t rush through. He offers great explanation into his decision making process and I think he’s one the most honest dentists I have encountered. The energy in this practice is so positive and it was all around a great experience. They stay up to date with the newest advances in dental care and the office is super clean. I am happy to be a patient here. 💯 recommend to anyone who cares about their teeth and is looking for a great dentist. Thank you guys for being so awesome!❤️

I don’t have many dental experiences since I was a child usually I went with one place for a long period of time. I found this dentist a few years ago and I’ll honestly say, they’re fantastic. Everyone somewhere and someone have something to complain about but with them not one complaint. Please use them as your regular. You won’t be disappointed with your results.

I was in search of a new dentist after relocating to the area. Came across PS Dental and was very pleased with the overall service, quant office and service team. Amanda (hygienist) was very professional and her cleaning was painless. Morgan (front office) response time was beyond expectations and she was able to answer my many inquiries. 10/10 experience overall and I will be having my wife come over as a new patient hopefully soon!
