It\u2019s normal to be anxious about anticipated pain, but this treatment will help get rid of severe damage, decay, or infection that\u2019s causing trouble for your oral health. Not only that, but your dentist will work to make sure each step of the procedure is as easy as possible. Here&#8217;s how and what you can expect throughout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step #1: Assessing the Situation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you can get a tooth removed, your dentist will make sure there are no other options to fix the problem. It\u2019s their goal to save as much of the natural structure as possible, so this procedure is a last resort. Through an examination and X-rays, they\u2019ll ensure that getting it pulled will be best for your oral health in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step #2: Numbing Your Mouth and Sedation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although an extraction may be the last thing you want, your dentist will prioritize your comfort throughout. They do this by numbing your mouth with local anesthesia and offering <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drgeorgetphilipdmd.com\/sedation-dentistry.html\">conscious sedation<\/a>. These help reduce any pain you may feel and allow you to be a bit more relaxed. They\u2019ll take several minutes to kick in, so you\u2019ll let your dentist know when they do; that way, they can start when you\u2019re ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step #3: Removing the Tooth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your provider will then use special instruments that put controlled, gentle pressure on the affected tooth. Using them, they&#8217;ll rock the structure back and forth. This helps reduce any interruption to the surrounding tissues. Once it&#8217;s loose enough, they&#8217;ll use forceps to wiggle it out of place. That&#8217;s it! Throughout this, you shouldn&#8217;t feel severe discomfort, but many patients say they experience pressure instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For some, their tooth is impacted. There are a couple of extra steps when this is the case, but they shouldn&#8217;t be painful because you were numbed. Your dentist will first make small incisions to expose the tooth underneath the gums. They&#8217;ll take it out in pieces and stitch the gums closed afterward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step #4: Recovery After Your Procedure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Immediately after your procedure, you may not feel much. Your mouth will still be numb because of the powerful anesthesia, so it&#8217;ll take a couple of hours to wear off. As it does, you may notice some soreness. This is entirely normal, but you can get relief with pain relievers or prescribed medication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow your dentist&#8217;s post-op instructions, like eating soft foods and using an ice pack, and you can have a smooth recovery. That way, you are confident knowing you have had an easy treatment that bettered your oral health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.drgeorgetphilipdmd.com\/meet-the-dentist.html\">Dr. George Philip<\/a> earned his dental degree from the Nova Southeastern University College of Dental Medicine.
