The Nightmare Of All Dental Patients: Tooth Extraction

21.02.2011

In as much as many dental problems can be treated without leading to tooth extraction, there are several cases wherein tooth extraction is unavoidable. Some of these cases include severe tooth decay caused by tooth abscess; broken or fractured tooth due to accidents; severe gum disease which leads to infections on the tooth’s bone and tissue structures; crooked teeth caused by insufficient space in the mouth and impacted wisdom teeth.

Tooth extraction is performed by dentists only after careful dental diagnosis of the patient’s oral health condition. Normally dentists require radiography examination so the dentist can better evaluate the internal structure of the tooth and the bone area surrounding it. Part of the evaluation is a set of interview questions from your dentist which pertains to several medical and dental histories that are related to the tooth extraction procedure. It is common for them to ask if you have any cardiovascular or respiratory disorder; if you have developed any allergic reactions to particular drugs; or if you fear the procedure that will occur. When your dentist starts asking this sets of questions just be true to your answer so they can properly handle the tooth extraction procedure.

Tooth extraction is safe and unlike the belief of many the pain it brings to dental patients is not severe. Local anesthesia is used to create numbness in the portion of the infected tooth so when your tooth is finally extracted you hardly feel the pain of the procedure.

After the procedure, patients are advised to remain calm and sit still for a couple of minutes. The length of time varies depending on the type of treatment performed. Nevertheless, the dentist determines whether or not sufficient blood clot has been formed before he will allow you to leave his office.
