What Is A Surgical Extraction?
Surgical extractions involve the removal of teeth that cannot be easily accessed, either because they have broken under the gum line or because they have not erupted fully. Surgical extractions almost always require an incision. In a surgical extraction, the doctor may elevate the soft tissues covering the tooth and bone and may also remove some of the overlying and/or surrounding jawbone tissue with a drill. Surgical extractions are usually performed under a general anesthetic. Extractions at Sweet Water Dentistry are something that we specialize in! We would love to have you in for a free consult!
Post-Extraction Instructions
For aftercare instructions on a surgically extracted tooth, your dentist should provide an instructions list before leaving the office on the day of your surgery.
Some basic rules to follow after a surgical extraction include:
- Avoid using straws.
- Avoid Brushing the area, or any pressure to the area.
- Avoid solid foods. Soft foods such as yogurts, jello, liquid drinks, and plenty of water are best for diet after surgery.
