Tooth extraction is a surgical procedure during which a tooth that is beyond repair, of poor quality, or likely to cause complications is removed.
Tooth extraction is most often necessary due to severe caries, cracks, and fractures, malocclusion, diseases of the tissues surrounding the tooth, as well as when a tooth has not fully erupted (impacted) and may cause complications. Wisdom teeth are most often extracted when they are irreparably damaged, have erupted improperly, or are difficult to clean effectively, thereby posing a risk of various dental and soft tissue diseases.
This is a procedure performed in cases of irreversible tooth damage or defects.
This is a procedure performed for preventive purposes when it is difficult to clean wisdom teeth thoroughly, which increases the risk of tooth decay or other diseases and poses a threat to the health of adjacent teeth. Wisdom teeth that erupt improperly can also cause inflammation and pain.
This involves the surgical removal of a tooth that has formed but has not erupted, performed by making an incision in the gums. If an impacted tooth is not removed, serious complications may arise later—the roots of adjacent teeth may be damaged, and inflammation and cysts may form.
The condition of the tooth is assessed, and an X-ray is taken if necessary.
The patient is presented with a tooth extraction plan, given recommendations for the post-operative period, and prepared for the tooth extraction procedure.
Local anesthesia is administered to prevent pain and discomfort.
Once the anesthesia takes effect, the tooth is safely extracted using special instruments.
A decayed or damaged tooth that is not removed can become a source of infection that spreads to the gums, bone, and even the entire body, causing abscesses or systemic complications.
Untreated or unremoved teeth can cause persistent discomfort, inflammation, swollen gums, or pain, interfering with daily activities and reducing quality of life.
If wisdom teeth or impacted teeth are not removed in a timely manner, they can put pressure on adjacent teeth, causing them to shift, damage the tooth roots, or lead to malocclusion.
If you delay having a problematic tooth removed, you may need more complex surgical procedures later on.

1. Is tooth extraction painful?
Tooth extraction is always performed under local anesthesia, so you will not feel any pain during the procedure.
2. How will I feel after the procedure?
Most patients feel fine after a tooth extraction and can return to their normal routine immediately. However, in the first few days after the extraction, you may experience slight bleeding, pain, or swelling. Don’t be alarmed by this, as it is normal. To reduce discomfort, take the medication prescribed by your dentist and apply cold compresses to the area where the tooth was removed.
3. Is tooth extraction really necessary?
Dentists perform tooth extractions when it is necessary: the tooth is irreversibly damaged, and if it is not removed in time, various complications may arise, posing a threat to adjacent teeth, overall oral health, and so on. A tooth may also need to be extracted in preparation for orthodontic treatment. Only a specialist, after assessing the patient’s clinical situation, can determine whether tooth extraction is necessary in each individual case.
4. How long does a tooth extraction take?
A simple tooth extraction takes about 15–30 minutes, but more complex cases may take longer.
5. Is it necessary to replace a extracted tooth?
If the extracted tooth was functional, it must be replaced to prevent bite and chewing problems.
