Dunwin Dental provides tooth extraction services to our patients to meet their unique dental needs. Extraction is a general dentistry procedure performed for a variety of reasons, whether it’s to remove wisdom teeth or to provide room for other teeth. Tooth extraction is a quick outpatient procedure with either local, general, intravenous anesthesia, or a combination. If you are experiencing pain and discomfort due to an infected tooth, a wisdom tooth, or simply need to make space for teeth to shift into place, our expert dentists can help you find immediate relief. In the meantime, here is some more information regarding what is involved in a tooth extraction
During your first consultation at our dental office, the dentist will take an x-ray of your mouth and discuss your medical history. They may prescribe you antibiotics in the days leading up to the procedure if you have an infection or a specific medical condition.
Preparing For Your Extraction
On the day of your dental extraction appointment, remember to:
Your Extraction Appointment
On the day of your appointment, we will talk you through the process. To ensure that you are comfortable and relaxed, you will receive a local anesthetic or IV sedation. Following the extraction, you will receive aftercare instructions as well as a follow-up appointment date if necessary.
Your follow-up appointment will give the dentist an opportunity to check the dental extraction site and ensure there are no complications or infections. However, if you do experience any severe pain or discomfort before your follow-up appointment, contact your dentist immediately.
Our environment at Dunwin Dental is warm and welcoming to make coming to your appointment feel like dropping in to see old friends.
