Tooth Extractions
We offer this last-resort solution for dental issues that cannot be resolved through other means. Tooth extractions involve carefully removing a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. Before the procedure, we numb the area around the tooth with local anesthesia to minimize discomfort.

Frequently Asked Questions
How should I care for my mouth after a tooth extraction?
+Following your dentist’s care regimen is the best way to have a quick and smooth recovery. Here’s what we recommend after a tooth extraction treatment:
- Bite on a gauze pad for 3–4 hours to reduce bleeding and allow a clot to form.
- Avoid strenuous activities for at least 24 hours to prevent additional bleeding.
- Avoid rinsing your mouth vigorously or sucking on straws.
- Stick to soft and liquid foods for the first few days. Gradually reintroduce solid foods as the extraction site heals.
- Take any prescribed medication as directed.
- After 24 hours, gently rinse your mouth with a saltwater solution several times a day to keep the area clean.
What are dry sockets, and how can they be prevented?
+Dry sockets can occur after a tooth extraction if the blood clot at the site of the tooth removal is dislodged or fails to form. Without this clot, the underlying bone and nerves are exposed to air, food, fluid, and bacteria. This can lead to intense pain not only in the socket but also along the nerves radiating to the side of your face. To prevent dry sockets, we suggest eating soft foods, following a strict oral hygiene regimen, avoiding rigorous physical activity, and avoiding sucking actions that could dislodge the clot.
What are my options for replacing an extracted tooth?
+Pearly Whites Dental Care offers several restorative services for replacing an extracted tooth, including dental implants, dental bridges, and dentures.
