What is Tooth Extraction?

Tooth extraction refers to the process of removing a tooth from its socket in the bone. It is performed when a tooth is severely damaged or infected and cannot be repaired through other treatments like fillings or root canals.Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium, designed to replace missing teeth. They are surgically placed into the jawbone, providing a strong foundation for fixed or removable replacement teeth that match your natural teeth.

Type of Tooth Extraction

  • Simple Teeth Extractions: Simple teeth extractions involve removing visible teeth using minimal instruments and local anesthesia. This procedure is quick, painless, and commonly performed for decayed, damaged, or overcrowded teeth to maintain oral health.
  • Surgical Teeth Extractions: Surgical teeth extraction is a procedure to remove impacted, broken, or severely damaged teeth using specialized techniques, ensuring minimal discomfort and promoting optimal healing for better oral health and functionality.

Why is Tooth Extraction Needed?

  • Teeth may require removal due to extensive decay, infection, gum disease, or damage caused by trauma.
  • Extraction might be necessary to resolve crowding issues for orthodontic treatment or to remove impacted wisdom teeth.
  • In cases where an infection threatens overall oral health, tooth removal is often the best solution.

Symptoms Indicating the Need for Extraction

  • Persistent pain or discomfort in a specific tooth.
  • Swelling or tenderness in the gums around a problematic tooth.
  • Loose teeth due to advanced gum disease.
  • Teeth that are cracked or broken beyond repair.
  • Chronic infections or abscesses near the affected tooth.

Treatment Process

  • Consultation: At Dr. Kakkar Dental & Implant Centre, a thorough examination using X-rays is conducted to assess the tooth and surrounding tissues.
  • Anaesthesia: Local anaesthesia is administered to ensure a pain-free procedure.
  • Extraction: The tooth is carefully removed, either through a simple extraction for visible teeth or a surgical extraction for impacted or broken teeth.
  • Post-Procedure Care: Guidance on healing, including rest, medication, and oral hygiene, is provided to prevent complications like infection.
