Tooth Extractions
There may be several reasons why a tooth extraction is necessary as an oral surgical procedure. You might have a severely damaged or decayed tooth that cannot be saved, causing pain and discomfort. In such cases, tooth extraction may be recommended to prevent further complications and improve overall oral health. Impacted wisdom teeth can also require extractions to alleviate pain and prevent overcrowding or misalignment of surrounding teeth. We will carefully evaluate your situation and recommend the best action for your dental needs.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are among the most needed types of oral surgery in Santa Rosa. They provide a more permanent solution than dentures or other less effective methods of tooth replacement. Dental implants involve surgically placing a titanium post into the jawbone, a sturdy foundation for attaching an artificial tooth or bridge. This highly successful procedure can greatly improve your smile's functionality and aesthetics. If you are considering getting dental implants, we will guide you through each step to ensure a smooth and successful outcome.
Common Questions About Tooth Extractions
Our clients rely on our oral surgery services to improve their way of life. The process involves numbing the area with local anesthesia before carefully extracting the tooth to minimize discomfort. Tooth extractions are typically recommended for severe decay, infection, overcrowding, or trauma. Below are some common questions our patients have after the process.
What is the healing process like? A hole will be left in the socket where the tooth was extracted, gradually filling with a blood clot and beginning to heal. The healing process typically takes a few days to a week, and most patients don't feel pain or discomfort.
Is it normal to have some bleeding? Some bleeding around the area is normal after a tooth extraction. Our team recommends using gauze to control bleeding. However, contact us if something doesn't appear normal.
Can I eat after oral surgery or tooth extraction? You can eat after oral surgery or tooth extraction, but stick to a liquid diet for the first 24 years. It's important to gradually introduce harder or chewy foods as you heal.
