How Dental Extractions Work

Dental extractions are a type of dental surgery that is used to remove one or more teeth. The most common reason for having a tooth extracted is because it is impacted, meaning it is stuck in the jawbone and cannot erupt through the gum tissue. Other reasons for extracting teeth include crowding, infection, or trauma.

Dental extractions are performed by a dentist or an oral surgeon. The procedure is typically done under local anesthesia, which numbs the area around the tooth. In some cases, sedation may be used if the patient is anxious or has a complex extraction.

After the tooth has been removed, there will be a small hole left in the gums where the tooth was originally located. This hole will eventually heal on its own, but it is important to take care of the area to prevent infection.
