At Faywest Dental Center, one of our top priorities is providing gentle, comfortable dentistry, and dental extractions are no exception. Before your procedure, we’ll review your dental history and discuss any concerns you have. If you’ve ever had trouble getting numb during previous dental work, let us know. We can take extra time and care to ensure your tooth is fully anesthetized so your experience is as comfortable as possible.
Some mild discomfort and swelling after an extraction is normal. Most patients manage this easily with over-the-counter pain relievers, such as ibuprofen. Our team will guide you on proper dosing and provide clear instructions on what to expect as your mouth heals. Avoiding certain habits, like smoking or using a straw, will help speed recovery.
Most patients notice a dramatic improvement within a couple of days, with complete healing usually occurring within one to two weeks. We’ll schedule a follow-up visit to check your healing and make sure everything is progressing smoothly.
If a tooth needs to be replaced, we offer a variety of options, including dentures, partials, and dental implants. Our team will walk you through each choice so you can make an informed decision that fits your needs and lifestyle.
