How is Tooth Extraction Performed?

Local anesthesia is used during tooth extraction. The area where the extraction will be performed is numbed, so no pain is felt.

The medication is injected into the gum. Numbness occurs a few minutes later.

The dentist ensures the area is sufficiently numbed, providing more medication if necessary.

Usually, the numbing process is successful on the first try. Pain thresholds and patient conditions also affect the nature of the procedures.

The targeted tooth is extracted from the numbed area by the doctor.
