Your permanent teeth are supposed to keep you smiling for the rest of your life. However, in some cases, an extraction is necessary to address a serious dental health problem. Common reasons for extraction include:
Dr. Christopher Hong is passionate about dentistry and providing top-quality care to his patients in Newark. He has a reputation for creating a personable, comfortable, and caring environment for his patients.
If you think you need an extraction, call our office right away. Our dentist will perform an examination of your tooth and take X-rays to assess its condition. We will do everything we can to restore your affected tooth through restorative care, such as a root canal. Once our dentist determines extraction is the best course of treatment, we will schedule your procedure as soon as possible. We offer extended hours to help fit necessary care into your schedule and give you the relief you need.
Recovery typically takes 1-3 days. Take antibiotics and pain relievers as recommended by our dentist. Some pain, bleeding, and swelling is normal and should subside within a day or two. Try to rest as much as possible and follow all post-surgical instructions provided by our team. If you experience any excessive bleeding or discomfort, call our office right away.

Only your dentist can determine if extraction is right for you based on your treatment needs. However, an untreated tooth infection will not heal and will likely worsen without proper attention from a trained dental professional. Ignoring a severely damaged, decayed, or infected tooth can lead to the surrounding bone and gum tissues weakening over time, making the damage much more difficult to repair.
