There are two main types of tooth extractions performed by dentists in Northern Melbourne. A simple extraction is carried out on a tooth that is visible and accessible, using local anaesthesia to numb the area before the tooth is loosened and removed. A surgical extraction is required when a tooth has broken below the gumline, is impacted, or has complex roots. This may involve a small incision and sometimes removal of bone around the tooth.
Recovery after a tooth extraction typically takes a few days. Your dentist will provide aftercare instructions including advice on pain management, diet, oral hygiene and when to return for a follow-up. Most patients can return to normal activities within 24 to 48 hours for simple extractions, while surgical extractions may require a few days of rest.
