When is a Tooth Extraction Necessary?
Tooth extractions may be necessary for several reasons, including severe decay, infection, overcrowding, or impacted teeth.
Our Tooth Extraction Process
-
Is tooth extraction painful?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring minimal discomfort. Post-extraction pain can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and typically subsides within a few days. Our team at Diamond Dental Service will provide instructions to help manage any post-procedure discomfort.
-
How long does it take to recover from a tooth extraction?
Depending on the individual, recovery typically takes a few days to a week. Following your dentist’s aftercare instructions is important to ensure proper healing and avoid complications. Rest, proper oral hygiene, and avoiding certain foods can help speed up recovery.
-
What can I eat after a tooth extraction?
Stick to soft foods like yogurt, applesauce, and mashed potatoes during the initial recovery period. Avoid hot, spicy, or hard foods that can irritate the extraction site and delay healing. Gradually reintroduce solid foods as healing progresses and as advised by your dentist.
