About Extraction

When might you need a tooth extraction?

What happens after a tooth extraction?

Your dentist will probably need to make sure the gum socket is clean after your tooth has been removed. If you needed a cut in the gum during tooth removal, you might need a stitch to close the cut. You might have some bleeding, and if so, the dentist will usually ask you to bite down on a piece of gauze to stop the bleeding. Once the anaesthetic wears off, you will probably have some pain. Your dentist might write you a prescription for pain relief medicine or recommend an over-the-counter medicine. You’ll also probably be told to eat soft foods and chew on the unaffected side of your mouth for a while. Be careful not to bite your lip while it is numb. You should rest and avoid physical sports, smoking, and drinking alcohol for the next 24 hours.

Usually, a single tooth extraction does not change the face shape. Still, if posterior teeth are lost over a long period, the jawbone may shrink, resulting in very subtle facial alterations. Hence, tooth replacements such as dental implants are advised by dentists to keep the bone intact and maintain the natural face shape.

Depending on the number of teeth removed or replaced, the long-term effects of tooth extraction can vary. If left untreated, the gap can cause the surrounding teeth to tilt, causing problems with biting and changes in alignment. Loss of bone around the jaw occurs with time, which may tilt toward a compromise in chewing and facial aesthetics. After extraction, solutions such as dental implants are chosen to avoid these possibilities from occurring.

Eating soft foods is advised for a few hours after tooth extraction, generally until the anaesthesia has worn off. For an initial 1 or 2 days after, the patient should consume only cool, soft foods and avoid anything spicy so as not to disrupt healing. Anything hard, crunchy, or hot should be avoided until the dentist gives a green light on recovery. Sticking to these safeguards can help in the prevention of post-tooth-extraction complications.

The first phase of healing after tooth extraction typically takes about 1–2 weeks, but proper healing of the jawbone and tissues around the site may take a few months. Keeping up with oral hygiene practices, resting, and following the instructions provided post-extraction should smooth the healing process. Generally, discomfort from the extraction site improves within a few days; however, healing of the bone itself may take up to 12 weeks.

There are a few precautions one should take during those initial days after tooth extraction to prevent delayed healing. Avoid smoking, drinking alcohol, or consuming hard and spicy foods for at least a couple of days following an extraction. Otherwise, you may dislodge the blood clot from the extraction site and develop a very painful condition called dry socket. Strictly following your dentist’s after-extraction instructions will enable quick healing and help avoid complications.
