Tooth extractions and Wisdom Teeth Removal in Delta

At Nordel Dental Clinic, we advocate protecting the health of your natural teeth and implement preventative dentistry to protect them from future damage. However, in many circumstances, tooth extraction may be the best course of treatment, such as for gum disease, decay impaction, trauma, and mouth crowding. At our dental clinic, we have the experience to provide you with trustworthy tooth extraction, including wisdom teeth removal in Delta.

​

We understand that a tooth extraction seems like a daunting procedure, so we have created an environment that ensures patients are as comfortable as possible to Evoke a feeling of support and ease. Our knowledge and cutting-edge equipment enable us to provide you with efficient tooth extractions and wisdom teeth removal in Delta.

WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT TOOTH EXTRACTIONS
 

Tooth extractions aren’t nearly as unpleasant as they used to be. Our dentists efficiently numb the area first to eliminate pain and decrease any discomfort you may experience, and the procedure itself is done relatively quickly. You may experience trace amounts of bleeding afterwards, and this is perfectly normal. We’ll provide you with post-extraction instructions to fit your particular situation, but here are some essential tips to ease your recovery:
 

  • Don’t smoke or drink from a straw for at least 24 hours

  • Rinse your mouth gently after 24 hrs, but don’t brush the teeth near the removal site for 48 hrs

  • Follow the recommended diet we provide you of soft, solid foods (avoid grainy food that could get stuck in the area, such as rice)

  • If you experience swelling, try a cold cloth or ice pack for relief

  • We can provide a pain medication prescription, if necessary

BENEFITS OF TOOTH EXTRACTION

 

Your dentist may recommend tooth extractions when a crown, filling or other restoration techniques are not an option or have a good prognosis for success. This procedure is also often used in extracting impacted wisdom teeth and treating teeth that experience gum disease. Tooth extraction is beneficial in the following ways:
 

  • Relieves toothaches

  • Prevents overcrowding of teeth

  • Reduces the risk of oral inflammation

  • Helps prevent cysts and jaw-bone damage

  • Prevents dental cavities from progressing

  • ​Prevents spores of infection

WISDOM TEETH REMOVAL

 

Wisdom teeth are teeth that generally show up between the ages of 17 and 25. They can be a source of trouble because often there is a lack of space in your mouth for more teeth by the time they are ready to erupt, their appearance uncomfortable and painful. They generally grow at sharp and awkward angles and can get trapped under your gums and bone, which can lead to complications.

 

When you start experiencing trouble due to wisdom teeth, we recommend removing them immediately. This can help prevent complications such as crowding in your mouth, infection, nerve pain and tooth damage to adjacent teeth. Compared to other types of tooth extractions, the removal of wisdom teeth will not affect the placement of your other teeth.
