WHAT ARE TOOTH EXTRACTIONS

Tooth extractions are dental procedures where a tooth is carefully removed from its socket to protect your oral health. Extractions are often recommended when a tooth is severely decayed, infected, broken beyond repair, or causing crowding. Wisdom teeth may also need to be extracted if they are impacted or creating alignment issues, which can lead to pain, swelling, or damage to nearby teeth if left untreated.

At Choi & Lee Family Dentistry in Chino, CA, our team uses gentle techniques and modern technology to make the process as smooth and comfortable as possible. We provide clear aftercare guidance to help you heal quickly and avoid complications.

Whether you need a simple extraction or a surgical one, our focus is on protecting your smile, preventing future dental issues, and setting the stage for long-term oral health.

Simple steps before your appointment

How to Prepare FOR YOUR TOOTH EXTRACTION

Preparing for a tooth extraction is straightforward, but a little preparation helps ensure a smooth appointment. Before your procedure, our dentist will examine your mouth with X-rays to understand the tooth’s position and condition. We’ll review your medical history, discuss any medications you’re taking, and provide personalized instructions.

You may be advised to avoid food or drinks for a few hours before the procedure, depending on whether sedation will be used. It’s also helpful to arrange for someone to drive you home if sedation or anesthesia is part of your treatment. At Choi & Lee Family Dentistry, we’ll guide you through every step so you feel informed and confident before your visit.

Recovery anD Aftercare for YOUR TOOTH EXTRACTIONS

After an extraction, proper aftercare is important for comfort and healing. Following your dentist’s instructions reduces the risk of complications and promotes faster recovery:

  • Bite gently on the provided gauze to control bleeding and help a clot form.

  • Avoid using straws, smoking, or spitting forcefully, as these actions can dislodge the clot.

  • Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek to minimize swelling.

  • Stick to soft foods like yogurt, eggs, or smoothies for the first day or two.

    Extracting problematic teeth, like impacted wisdom teeth, prevents infections, misalignment, or damage to neighboring teeth.

  • Improved Oral Health

    By removing sources of infection or decay, extractions protect your gums and remaining teeth, supporting long-term dental health.

  • Extractions are performed with local anesthesia or sedation, so you won’t feel pain during the procedure. Some mild soreness or swelling afterward is normal, but it can be managed with medication and aftercare instructions.

  • Initial healing typically takes 1–2 weeks, depending on the complexity of the extraction and your overall health. Following proper aftercare speeds up recovery and helps prevent complications.

  • Extractions are recommended when a tooth is too damaged to be saved, when there’s severe infection, or if wisdom teeth are impacted. Your dentist will evaluate your situation and discuss the best treatment options with you.

  • Yes, but stick to soft foods for the first 24–48 hours. Avoid crunchy, spicy, or hot foods that could irritate the extraction site. Gradually reintroduce normal foods as you heal.

  • If a permanent tooth is removed, your dentist may recommend a dental implant, bridge, or partial denture. Replacing missing teeth restores your smile and helps maintain proper bite alignment.
