Protect Your Oral Health With Dr. Stroumpos

Keep reading to learn how you can benefit from an extraction.

Reasons For An Extraction

There are a few common reasons why a patient’s tooth may need to be removed. These include:

  • Severely damaged tooth
  • Rotted or decayed tooth
  • Impacted wisdom tooth
  • To prevent overcrowding

Our Tooth Removal Process

Before your treatment begins, Dr. Stroumpos will numb your teeth and gums with a local anesthetic to ensure you don’t feel pain. Once you’re ready, he’ll gently expand the tooth socket and separate your tooth from the ligament.

The procedure can be completed in just one appointment with minimal discomfort. Rest assured, Dr. Stroumpos will make sure you feel relaxed and pain-free throughout the procedure.

How long does a tooth extraction take?

Removing a tooth can typically be completed in just one short appointment. In most cases, the surgery takes about an hour per tooth. If you’re having several teeth removed, you’ll need to schedule multiple appointments.

How long after a tooth extraction can I eat?

After your tooth is removed, you should wait about an hour before eating anything. For at least the first two or three days while your mouth heals, stick to soft foods that are easy to chew. Avoid items like steak, raw vegetables, or chewy candy to prevent food particles from lodging in your empty socket and causing an infection.

Is tooth extraction painful?

Many patients who need an extraction are concerned that the procedure will be painful. Thankfully, we have a few different ways to keep your discomfort to a minimum and help you relax. In fact, most patients experience little to no pain from having a tooth removed.

Dr. Stroumpos will use a local anesthetic to numb your teeth and gums so you don’t feel anything during your treatment. We also offer sedation options for patients who are especially prone to dental anxiety or pain.

How long does it take to recover from a tooth extraction?

After your tooth is removed, it’s essential to let your mouth heal for at least a couple of days. Once you’ve determined there aren’t any complications, you can resume your normal diet and physical activities. However, you should still keep in mind that the tissue around your tooth won’t fully heal for three to four weeks.
