What should I expect during tooth removal?

Dental extractions vary from simple and straightforward to minor forms of oral surgery. To ensure your comfort at all times, we’ll thoroughly numb your tooth first with a topical anaesthetic and then a small injection of local anaesthesia. Ultimately, you shouldn’t be able to feel any discomfort whatsoever.

Most people prefer to take the rest of the day off from work or school. Typically, you can go back to your normal routine by the next day or so. If your procedure is more surgical in nature, we’ll likely need to see you again within a week or two to remove any sutures and monitor how well your mouth is healing.
