What Is Surgical Tooth Extraction?
Surgical Tooth Extraction is a dental procedure used to remove teeth that cannot be easily accessed or pulled using standard methods. This includes impacted, broken, or unusually positioned teeth. The procedure involves making an incision in the gum and sometimes removing surrounding bone to access the tooth. It is commonly performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity and patient needs. Surgical Tooth Extraction allows the dentist at our affiliated clinic to safely remove problematic teeth while minimizing trauma to surrounding tissues.
How It Works
Surgical Tooth Extraction begins with local anesthesia – administered to numb the area. A small incision is made in the gum tissue to expose the tooth. If the tooth is covered by bone, a portion may be removed. In some cases, the tooth is divided into smaller pieces to make removal easier. Once extracted, the area is cleaned, sutured, and packed with gauze to manage bleeding and promote clot formation for healing.
