Tooth Extraction

What is Tooth Extraction?

Tooth extraction is the safe and controlled removal of teeth that cannot be saved from the mouth. It may be performed due to severe decay, infection, advanced gum disease, or orthodontic reasons.

Why Is Tooth Extraction Performed?

Some teeth may be too damaged to be treated with fillings or root canal therapy. In such cases, tooth extraction is necessary to prevent pain and the spread of infection, and to preserve oral and jaw health.

When Is Tooth Extraction Necessary?

In cases of advanced tooth decay

In cases of severe toothache and infection

In cases of tooth mobility due to gum disease

When space needs to be created before orthodontic treatment

The Process of Tooth Extraction

1. Examination and Evaluation

The condition of the tooth is evaluated through a clinical examination and, if necessary, with an X-ray. The reason for the extraction decision is explained clearly to the patient.

2. Application of Local Anesthesia

The area is numbed before the procedure. No pain is felt during tooth extraction.

3. Tooth Extraction

The tooth is extracted in a controlled manner without damaging the surrounding tissues. The procedure usually takes a short time.

4. Information After the Procedure

Post-procedure care instructions are provided to the patient. Medication and follow-up appointment are scheduled when necessary.
