Extraction

Extraction

When tooth decay is so severe that the tooth cannot be saved with treatments such as root canal therapy or the help of antibiotics, extraction becomes necessary. Other reasons for removing a tooth might include severe gum disease and infection. Tooth extraction may also be required for wisdom teeth or to address overcrowded teeth in preparation for orthodontic treatments like braces for better alignment. For those concerned about discomfort, pain-free dental extractions in Vijayawada offer a solution, ensuring a comfortable and stress-free experience during the procedure.

Local anaesthetic is given before extraction, so you do not feel any pain. We cater to nervous patients, as well.

Post-Extraction Instructions

Bite on the gauze for at least 30 minutes, until the bleeding stops. If the bleeding continues, replace the gauze with a fresh piece and continue biting. Swelling and pain should subside within 2-3 days. If the condition persists or worsens, please call us for further instructions or to schedule a follow-up. At our clinic, we specialize in pain-free dental extractions in Vijayawada, ensuring your comfort and care throughout the process.

Wisdom Teeth :

A lot of people do not feel a thing when their wisdom teeth (molars) emerge, while others experience extensive pain. The cause of pain can be overcrowding and impaction. When an erupting molar doesn’t have enough room in the jaw, it pushes the tooth in front of it or irritates the gum, leading to discomfort. For those seeking relief, pain-free dental extractions in Vijayawada provide an effective solution to address wisdom tooth issues with minimal discomfort.

Common complications from impacted wisdom teeth include:

  • Decay between molars: A wisdom tooth growing sideways makes brushing and flossing difficult, therefore causing decay
  • Gum infection: swelling and bacterial infection, due to difficulty cleaning the area Infected molars can be treated with antibiotics; however, infection can keep coming back. Moreover, an impacted tooth cannot contribute to chewing, and often causes gum infection. Therefore, it is better to remove the impacted tooth.

Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek an opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
