When is a tooth extraction necessary?
A tooth extraction is needed when a tooth is severely decayed, infected, broken beyond repair, impacted (such as wisdom teeth) or causing overcrowding. It may also be required if gum disease has weakened the supporting bone structure.
-
Are tooth extractions painful?
With modern anesthesia and sedation options, tooth extractions are typically not painful. You may feel pressure during the procedure, but your dentist will ensure you’re comfortable. Any post-extraction discomfort can usually be managed with pain relievers and aftercare instructions.

How can I prevent dry socket after a tooth extraction?
To prevent dry socket, avoid smoking, using straws or vigorous rinsing for the first few days after extraction. Follow your dentist’s aftercare instructions, keep the area clean and stick to soft foods while healing. If you experience severe pain, contact your dentist immediately.
