Surgery. Extraction of teeth


Qualified dentists always try to use all possible treatment options in order to preserve the tooth. However, there are situations when traditional treatments do not help and you have to resort to tooth extraction.

The operation to remove a tooth, including a wisdom tooth, is performed under local anesthesia. At the same time, dentists select anesthesia with special care, because it is far from a secret that there is a certain risk group when using anesthesia – for example, patients with diabetes mellitus, nursing and pregnant women.

The staff of highly qualified surgeons of the clinic allows for virtually painless tooth extraction in any clinical situation, as well as outpatient surgical procedures:

  • simple, complex removal of permanent and baby teeth
  • removal of uncut teeth
  • opening and drainage of a purulent focus
  • visualization of unerupted teeth
  • removal of the rudiment of a permanent tooth (according to orthodontic indications)
  • compactoosteotomy (plastic frenulum of the upper and lower lips, scarring, plastic frenulum of the tongue)
  • operation of root apical resection and removal of near-root foci of inflammation
Will it painful?

No, there should be no pain, since any manipulation is done after thorough anesthesia.

Will I feel something during tooth extraction?

Since anesthesia turns off only the pain receptors, you can feel pressure, bursting, touching the doctor, but no more.

Maybe the tooth can still be saved?

Our clinic is aimed at maximum preservation of the tooth, because humanity has not come up with anything better than its tooth, and for this we use all possible diagnostic and treatment options. Unfortunately, we are not always happy with the result and the tooth has to be removed.

What kind of painkiller are you injecting me?

We use only high-quality and modern, time-tested drugs in our work. We use drugs based on a 4% articaine solution (pharmaceutical names are not used so that it is not perceived as advertising).

Do you have sterile instruments?

We strictly follow the rules of asepsis and antiseptics. If you are interested in this question, you can have an excursion to our department of the CSO.

Will something hurt after tooth extraction and, if it's ''yes'', how long?

Tooth extraction is an injury, albeit for the good. And any injury heals through an inflammatory process that lasts three days. And the pathophysiological sign of this process is pain. Therefore, some discomfort may be felt after dental interventions. But it is quite easily stopped by anti-inflammatory drugs.

Are you sure there's nothing left?

We work for quality. If the doctor doubts the success of the operation, he will always conduct an additional diagnosis. In case of your personal doubt, you can ask the doctor to take an X-ray.

How lon I will have blood?

The leakage of blood droplets during the day is the norm. Mixing them with saliva can create the appearance of bleeding.

Will I be able to talk?

Tooth extraction does not affect speech in any way. The maximum is the discomfort of pronunciation until the anesthesia ceases.

Do I need to rinse with something after tooth extraction?

After tooth extraction, you should actively rinse your mouth for 1-2 days to keep a blood clot in place of the removed tooth.

How soon will I be able to eat/drink?

You can drink medium-temperature drinks 30 minutes after the procedure. After the cessation of anesthesia, you can eat, but in compliance with the temperature regime and something soft.

If food gets into the wound, will it rot there?

Even if something gets into the wound, it's not scary. The remnants of food will be washed out with saliva. For prevention, after eating, you can lightly rinse your mouth with water \ antiseptic \ herbal solution. Also, after removal, you can contact a doctor for a follow-up examination.

Can I drink alcohol?

On the day of the procedure, it is undesirable. This can cause a rise in blood pressure, which in turn will provoke bleeding. We are for a healthy lifestyle and do not advise abusing alcohol.

Can I smoke?

We are for a healthy lifestyle and advise you to get rid of this bad habit. In the opposite case, smoking is not recommended for two hours after manipulation.

How soon can I do sport?

It depends on what level of intervention. After the classical removal, it is recommended to refrain from physical exertion for 3-4 days.

There are different methods of restoring missing teeth. To clarify the situation, you need an orthopedic doctor's consultation, which can be carried out immediately after the manipulation.
