Types of Extractions

Simple Extraction

Performed on visible teeth using specialised dental instruments under local anaesthesia.

Surgical Extraction

Required for impacted or broken teeth that may need a small surgical procedure for removal, such as impacted wisdom teeth. Surgical extractions are further categorised based on complexity:

Minor Surgical Extraction Involves teeth that are partially impacted or require a small incision or minimal bone removal for safe extraction. Recovery is generally quicker than major surgical cases.

Major Surgical Extraction Required for fully impacted or deeply embedded teeth, such as impacted wisdom teeth positioned below the gum line or against the jawbone. These cases require a more involved surgical approach and a longer recovery period.

Dr. Madiha Akhwand and Dr. Maliha Mumtaz bring particular expertise to minor and major surgical extractions, ensuring even complex or impacted cases are handled with precision and care.

Do’s and Don’ts After Tooth Extraction

Proper aftercare is essential for healing and avoiding complications after your extraction.

Do’s

• Bite gently on gauze for 30–45 minutes to control bleeding
• Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling on the day of extraction
• Eat soft foods such as yogurt, soup, and mashed potatoes for the first few days
• Take prescribed medication as directed by your dentist
• Rest and avoid strenuous activity for at least 24 hours
• Gently rinse with warm salt water starting the day after extraction
• Follow up with your dentist if you notice unusual pain, swelling, or bleeding

Don’ts

• Don’t smoke or use tobacco products, as this can delay healing and cause dry socket
• Don’t drink through a straw for at least 3–4 days, as suction can dislodge the blood clot
• Don’t rinse or spit forcefully for the first 24 hours
• Don’t eat hard, crunchy, or spicy foods that can irritate the extraction site
• Don’t touch the extraction site with your fingers or tongue
• Don’t skip follow-up appointments if your dentist recommends one

Following these do’s and don’ts closely helps prevent complications such as dry socket and supports faster, more comfortable healing.

FAQs About Extraction

When is a tooth extraction necessary? A tooth extraction may be recommended when a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, infected, impacted, or cannot be saved with other dental treatments.

Is tooth extraction painful? Tooth extractions are performed under local anaesthesia to numb the area, so patients typically feel little to no pain during the procedure. Some mild discomfort may occur during recovery.

How long does it take to recover from a tooth extraction? Simple extractions usually heal within a few days to a week, while surgical extractions, such as wisdom tooth removal, may take slightly longer depending on the case.

What should I do after a tooth extraction? After extraction, bite gently on gauze to stop bleeding, avoid smoking and drinking through a straw, eat soft foods, and follow your dentist’s aftercare instructions closely.
