Dr. Jayaram’s dental clinic in Mysore, India offers dental extractions to help patients remove teeth that are damaged, decayed, or infected. A dental extraction is a surgical procedure that removes a tooth from its socket in the jawbone.
When is a Dental Extraction Necessary?
A dental extraction may be necessary if you have:
- A tooth that is severely decayed or damaged
- A tooth that is infected
- A tooth that is causing pain or discomfort
- A tooth that is crowding other teeth
- A tooth that is preventing you from getting a denture or other dental restoration
What to Expect During a Dental Extraction Procedure
- Dr. Jayaram will begin by numbing the area around the tooth with a local anesthetic.
- He may also give you a sedative to help you relax.
- Dr. Jayaram will then use special instruments to loosen the tooth in its socket.
- Once the tooth is loose, Dr. Jayaram will remove it from its socket.
- He may need to stitch the gums closed after the extraction.
After a Dental Extraction Procedure
- You may experience some bleeding and swelling after a dental extraction procedure. This is normal and should subside within a few days.
- Dr. Jayaram will provide you with instructions on how to care for your gums and tooth socket at home.
- He will also schedule a follow-up appointment to check on your healing and to remove any sutures that were placed.
