What to Know
Tooth extraction is done for different issues like a painful wisdom tooth or a tooth that has been badly damaged by decay. In some cases, a dentist will remove a tooth to make space for dental prosthetics or braces.Your tooth extraction will either be simple or surgical, depending on whether your tooth is visible or impacted
You will receive a local anesthetic, which numbs the area around your tooth during the procedure. The dentist then uses an instrument to loosen the tooth and remove it. You may also receive general anesthesia, depending on any medical conditions.
For a Surgical extraction the dentist will cut into your gum with a small incision. Then they may need to remove bone around your tooth or cut your tooth before it can be extracted.
