The Process of Tooth Extraction
At Oak Hills Dentistry, we follow a precise process when carrying out tooth extraction:
- Dr. Smith will clean and numb the affected area with a local anesthetic.
- Then, he’ll make an incision into the gum tissue around the tooth using a scalpel or other sharp instrument.
- The next step uses a dental elevator to remove the soft tissue surrounding the tooth, which allows Dr. Smith to access the roots of your teeth.
- He then removes the roots of your teeth using forceps, pliers, or other specialized instruments, depending on the type of tooth and its location.
- Once Dr. Smith has removed all visible roots from their tooth socket, he will use gauze and cotton swabs soaked in saline solution to clean the tooth socket. This eliminates any blood clot, bits of bone, or plaque (aspiration), leaving behind a clean and dry socket.
We take every precaution to ensure the tooth extraction process is as comfortable and painless as possible. Dr. Smith will be with you every step, from the initial consultation to aftercare.
