A tooth extraction is necessary when a tooth is beyond repair due to severe decay, trauma, or infection. Other reasons include overcrowding, which can affect orthodontic treatment, and impacted teeth, such as wisdom teeth that fail to emerge properly.
Our experienced dentists at Dental Care Mt Eliza evaluate each case individually, considering the patient’s overall oral health and the best course of action. If extraction is recommended, we will explain the reasons and ensure you are fully informed.
It is important to discuss your medical history and any medications you are taking with your dentist before a tooth extraction.
Your Mt Eliza dentist may recommend seeing your doctor or temporarily stopping certain medications to reduce the risk of complications. You should also arrange for someone to drive you home before or after the procedure, especially if you will be receiving sedation.
Follow any pre-extraction instructions your dentist provides at Dental Care Mt Eliza, such as taking prescribed medicine and a snack before your appointment.
Tooth extraction itself is not painful, as you will be under anaesthesia. You may feel some pressure during the procedure but should not feel pain. Post-extraction discomfort can occur but is typically manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers and following post-operative care instructions.
Our dental team at Dental Care Mt Eliza ensures you are as comfortable as possible during the procedure. It provides detailed aftercare instructions to help manage any discomfort during recovery.
While tooth extraction is generally safe, it carries some risks, including infection, prolonged bleeding, and dry socket (a painful condition when the blood clot at the extraction site is dislodged). Swelling and bruising are also common but usually resolve on their own.
At Dental Care Mt Eliza, we take all necessary precautions to minimise risks. We provide thorough post-extraction care instructions and are available to address any concerns during your recovery.
Recovery time varies depending on the complexity of the extraction and your overall health. Generally, the initial healing period takes about one to two weeks.
You can expect some swelling and discomfort during the first few days, which can be managed with pain relief and following your dentist’s instructions. Complete healing of the extraction site may take several weeks to a few months.
At Dental Care Mt Eliza, we provide detailed aftercare guidance and follow-up appointments to monitor your healing process.
