Before beginning the tooth extraction intervention, your dentist will ask you for an x-ray of the tooth which is necessary for having tooth properly extracted.

Usually, surgical tooth extraction intervention is needed in case of wisdom teeth. Usually, there is not enough room for them to get accomodated in the jaw. That is the reason why they have to be extracted, otherwise they can create a lot of problems. Sometimes during surgical tooth extraction procedure, it might be necessary, besides cutting away and pulling the gums, to cut the tooth in several parts for easier extraction. Surgical tooth extraction is done by oral surgeon. Surgical tooth extraction is conducted under local anesthesia.

Since the intervention takes more time than regular tooth extraction, some patients require that it is conducted under total anesthesia. In some cases, after wisdom tooth extraction, patients are prescribed to take antibiotics and painkillers. Taking of food should be avoided six to eight hours after surgical tooth extraction. When washing your teeth it is very important not to rinse the mouth, because you will remove the clot made from coagulated blood on the wound surface. Bleeding after surgical tooth extraction may also occur day after intervention. Your cheek might get swollen after surgical tooth intervention. In such case, cold packs should be applied for a two-day period after intervention. Cold packs should be applied for 10 minutes at the time, every 30 minutes.
