The extraction process begins by administering a sedative of your choice. We then use special dental instruments to loosen and then lift the problem tooth. We may need to place stitches depending on the location of the tooth and the quality of the soft tissue underneath. We will have you bite down on gauze to stop all bleeding before leaving the office. You can expect some slight pain and swelling for about one to two days following the appointment. We will provide you with all of the necessary post-operative instructions to help the area heal.
If you would like to inquire more about extractions and how they’re done, call us today and one of our friendly team members will be happy to assist you.
