Tooth Surgical Extraction: The Art of Removing Impacted or Partially Erupted Teeth
Tooth surgical extraction is a dental procedure that involves the removal of a tooth through a surgical approach. It is typically performed when a tooth is impacted, partially erupted, or requires a more complex extraction technique. Tooth surgical extraction may be necessary to alleviate pain, prevent further complications, or create space for orthodontic treatment.

How Does Tooth Surgical Extraction work
Tooth surgical extraction involves a more involved procedure compared to a simple extraction. After administering local anesthesia and, if needed, additional sedation, the oral surgeon creates an incision in the gum tissue to access the tooth. Bone removal may be necessary to fully expose the tooth. The tooth is then carefully extracted using specialized instruments, and stitches may be placed to aid in healing.
Treatments
- Removal of impacted teeth that have not fully erupted
- Extraction of teeth with curved or multiple roots
- Extraction of fractured or broken teeth that cannot be easily extracted
- Extraction of teeth located close to important structures like nerves or sinuses
- Surgical removal of teeth for orthodontic purposes or as part of a larger treatment plan
Treatment steps
- Comprehensive dental examination and assessment, including X-rays and 3D imaging, if necessary
- Administration of local anesthesia and, if needed, sedation options for patient comfort
- Creation of an incision in the gum tissue to access the tooth and, if necessary, bone removal
- Extraction of the tooth using specialized instruments, which may involve sectioning the tooth or removing it in pieces
- Placement of sutures to close the incision and promote proper healing of the surgical site
Session: A session of Tooth Surgical Extraction refers to a single visit or appointment dedicated to the surgical removal of one or more teeth.
Duration: 30 minutes to an hour
Painful or Painless:
Tooth surgical extraction is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring that the procedure itself is generally painless. However, patients may experience some discomfort or swelling during the recovery period, which can be managed with pain medication and following post-operative care instructions.
