We always try to save natural teeth, but sometimes removal is the healthiest option. Our team provides gentle tooth extraction in Mohali at our clinic at SCO 139, First Floor, Medallion, Sector 68, Mohali and helps you plan what comes next.
When Is a Tooth Extraction Needed?
- Severe decay or a fracture that cannot be repaired
- Advanced gum disease that has loosened the tooth
- Crowding before braces or aligners
- Baby teeth that have not fallen out on time
- Problem wisdom teeth
Simple and Surgical Extractions
A simple extraction removes a tooth that is fully visible in the mouth. A surgical extraction is used for broken, impacted or complex teeth and may involve a small opening in the gum. Both are done under local anaesthetic.
Replacing a Missing Tooth
After an extraction, the gap can be filled with a dental implant, a bridge or a denture. Replacing the tooth keeps your bite balanced and stops other teeth from moving. If an implant is planned, bone grafting at the time of extraction can help preserve the bone.
Aftercare
Keep the gauze in place as advised, rest on the first day, eat soft foods and avoid smoking, spitting and straws for 24–48 hours. Gentle salt-water rinses can usually begin the next day.
Tooth Extraction – Frequently Asked Questions
Will I feel pain during the extraction?
No. The area is numbed first; you may feel pressure but not sharp pain.
How long does the gum take to heal?
The gum usually closes within one to two weeks; the bone underneath takes longer to fill in.
Can I eat after an extraction?
Yes, once the numbness wears off. Choose soft foods and chew on the other side for a few days.
