Tooth Extraction

Expert Care for
Problematic Teeth

While our primary goal at 2th Saver Dental Clinic in Vadodara is always to save your natural teeth, sometimes extraction is the only responsible option to protect your overall oral health.

A Tooth Extraction (or tooth pulling) involves removing a tooth that is too damaged, decayed, infected, or poorly positioned to be saved by other restorative treatments like fillings or root canals.

Our experienced dentists perform the procedure using gentle techniques and effective local anesthesia, ensuring the process is comfortable and virtually painless. We also provide clear instructions for replacing the missing tooth and ensuring a smooth recovery.

Tooth Extraction

Benefits of This Treatment

Immediate Pain Relief

Removing a severely infected or abscessed tooth instantly eliminates the source of chronic, intense dental pain and discomfort.

Prevents Spread of Infection

Extraction removes the source of severe infection, stopping it from spreading to the jawbone, neighboring teeth, and preventing systemic health issues.

Guards Adjacent Teeth

Removing impacted wisdom teeth or heavily decayed teeth protects healthy, neighboring teeth from damage, shifting, or future decay.

Essential for Orthodontics

Strategic extraction helps create necessary space, allowing the remaining teeth to be moved into a perfectly aligned, healthy bite.

Clears Path for Restoration

Removing a hopeless tooth creates a clean foundation, allowing for successful and predictable replacement with options like dental implants or bridges.

Quick and Efficient Procedure

Simple extractions are often completed in less than 30 minutes, offering a fast solution to complex dental problems.

Treatment Process

Tooth Extraction Procedure

Diagnosis and Numbing

We use digital X-rays to assess the tooth's position, root structure, and proximity to nerves. We then thoroughly numb the area using local anesthesia, ensuring you feel no pain during the procedure.

Gentle Removal

For a Simple Extraction, the tooth is carefully rocked back and forth to loosen it from the socket before being gently lifted out. For a Surgical Extraction (common with impacted wisdom teeth), a small incision is made to access the tooth, which may be removed in sections.

Site Care and Sutures

Once the tooth is removed, the area is meticulously cleaned. We place gauze to promote clotting and may use dissolving sutures (stitches) to help the gum heal correctly.

Immediate Aftercare Instructions

You are provided with detailed written and verbal aftercare instructions to ensure the socket heals properly and to minimize any discomfort or swelling at home.

Treatment FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a tooth extraction painful?
No. Thanks to highly effective local anesthesia, you should only feel pressure, not sharp pain, during the actual procedure. We ensure the area is completely numb before beginning.
How long is the recovery time?
Initial healing typically takes 24 to 48 hours. Most patients return to normal activities the next day. Complete healing of the socket takes 7-10 days, with the bone taking several months to remodel.
What should I avoid immediately after the procedure?
For the first 24 hours, do not smoke, drink through a straw, spit forcefully, or drink alcohol. These actions can dislodge the blood clot and lead to a painful complication called dry socket.
Is it necessary to replace a missing tooth?
Yes, almost always. If the missing tooth is not replaced, the neighboring teeth can shift, and the opposing tooth can over-erupt. We will discuss tooth replacement options like implants, bridges, or dentures before the extraction.
How do I manage pain after the anesthesia wears off?
We recommend using prescribed or over-the-counter pain medication as directed. Applying a cold compress to the cheek near the site can also help reduce swelling and discomfort for the first 24 hours.
