Common Questions About Tooth Removal

Will my tooth extraction be painful?

You will not feel pain during your extraction thanks to our effective local anesthesia. We thoroughly numb the area before beginning any work on your tooth. You can also choose additional sedation options if you feel anxious about your procedure. After the extraction, we'll provide pain management recommendations to keep you comfortable throughout your healing journey.

What can I eat after having a tooth removed?

You should stick to soft, cool foods for the first 24 to 48 hours after your extraction. Good options include yogurt, applesauce, smoothies (without straws), and mashed potatoes. You can gradually introduce more solid foods as your comfort level improves over the following days. We recommend avoiding hot, spicy, crunchy, or hard foods until your extraction site has had sufficient time to heal.

Do I really need to replace my extracted tooth?

You should replace your extracted tooth to maintain proper chewing function and prevent shifting of surrounding teeth. Empty spaces in your mouth can cause neighboring teeth to drift out of position over time. Bone loss in the extraction area can occur without the stimulation from a tooth root or implant. Your replacement options include dental implants, bridges, or partial dentures depending on your specific needs.
