Questions You Can Ask Before Going in For an Extraction

  • Dr. Daniel Bearley
  • Tooth Extraction
Tooth Extraction Dentist in Charlottesville VA Area

Any dentist’s goal is to do all they can to save your teeth. Opting for extraction should be only after all other possibilities have been considered aimed at saving your teeth. However, there are some situations where it is just not possible, and a tooth extraction is the only option. If you are in the Charlottesville, Virginia area, you should visit Dr. Daniel Bearley and the team at Bearley Dental. Dr. Bearley will be happy to examine any problem tooth you may have and help determine if an extraction will be necessary. If you find yourself in a situation where a tooth may need to be extracted, here are a few questions you can ask that will benefit your case.

Are There Any Precautions I Need to Take Before and After the Tooth Extraction?

You will find that an easy way to ease your mind about an extraction is to fully prepare yourself with the knowledge of what the procedure involves. This includes knowing what preparation you should do on your own before and after the procedure. Will there be a special diet you need to follow? Should you use special toothpaste? How will you clean around the infection site? Ask questions about any precautions you should be taking.

What Kind of Sedation Will Be Used?

Depending on how severe your situation is, different sedation could be used. Simple procedures may only require local anesthetic, while more complicated cases may utilize general anesthesia. Talk to your doctor about what types of anesthetics they offer and which will work best for your situation. You will need to know this to make sure you have a safe ride home as well!

How Long Is Recovery?

In most cases, your dentist will recommend that you take precautions about the food you eat and how you handle your wound for at least two to four weeks. Your length of recovery will depend on how severe your situation is, so make sure you have a clear picture of what you should expect.
