Frequently Asked Questions about Tooth Extraction
Recovery from a tooth extraction typically takes about 1 to 2 weeks, although individual healing times may vary based on factors such as the complexity of the extraction and the individual’s overall health.
The level of pain experienced during a tooth extraction can vary depending on factors such as the complexity of the procedure, the individual’s pain tolerance, and the effectiveness of anesthesia or sedation used. While some discomfort and swelling are common after the procedure, dentists typically provide pain medication to manage any post-extraction pain.
During a tooth extraction, the dentist or oral surgeon numbs the area with local anesthesia and then loosens the tooth using specialized instruments before removing it from the socket. In some cases, stitches may be needed to close the extraction site.
The healing time for a socket after a tooth extraction varies but typically takes about 7 to 10 days for the initial healing process. Over the next few weeks, the socket will gradually fill in with new bone and soft tissue, resulting in complete healing over several months. It’s essential to follow post-extraction care instructions provided by the dentist to promote proper healing and prevent complications.
