When Are Dental Extractions Necessary?
Dental extractions may be required for several reasons, including:
- Severe Tooth Decay: When decay has destroyed a significant portion of the tooth structure, making it irreparable with fillings or crowns.
- Advanced Periodontal Disease: When gum disease has damaged the supporting tissues and bone to the extent that the tooth becomes loose.
- Impacted Wisdom Teeth: When wisdom teeth do not have enough space to emerge properly, causing pain, infection, or damage to adjacent teeth.
- Orthodontic Treatment Preparation: To create space for teeth alignment.
- Damaged Teeth: Teeth that are broken beyond repair due to trauma.
The Dental Extraction Process
Dr. Choy begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your dental health and discusses the best treatment options. If an extraction is deemed necessary, she will explain the procedure and address any concerns you might have.
- Preparation: Before the extraction, Dr. Choy will numb the area with a local anesthetic to ensure you do not feel pain during the procedure. Sedation options are available for those who experience anxiety or require more extensive procedures.
- Extraction: Using specialized instruments, Dr. Choy will carefully remove the tooth. The technique used depends on the condition and location of the tooth.
- Aftercare: Once the tooth is removed, Dr. Choy will provide you with aftercare instructions to promote healing and prevent complications. This includes advice on managing pain, swelling, and diet.
Post-Extraction Care
Proper aftercare is essential for a smooth recovery. Here are some tips:
- Control Bleeding: Bite on a gauze pad placed over the extraction site for 30 to 45 minutes. If bleeding persists, use a new gauze pad and repeat as necessary.
- Manage Pain: Use prescribed pain medications as directed. Over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen can also be effective.
- Reduce Swelling: Apply an ice pack to the affected area for 10 minutes on and 10 minutes off.
- Diet: Stick to soft foods and avoid hot liquids for the first 24 hours. Gradually reintroduce solid foods as the extraction site heals.
- Oral Hygiene: Keep your mouth clean but avoid the extraction site when brushing your teeth. Rinse gently with warm salt water starting 24 hours after the extraction.

I visited the office for a toothache when it first opened. I was very impressed with the care and precision of the entire staff. The space is very modern and comfortable. They even have an in house crown device, so no more return visits for a crown. If you’re considering a new dentist office, definitely check out Aura Dental Studio!
