Adult Teeth Extractions are Common - Don't Worry
Adult Teeth Extractions are a common dental procedure that can occur for many reasons. Some common reasons for Adult Teeth Extractions include tooth decay, gum disease, or an impacted tooth. Tooth decay is the most common reason for Adult Teeth Extractions, and it occurs when the enamel of the tooth begins to break down.
This can happen due to poor dental hygiene, eating sugary foods, or drinking acidic beverages. Gum disease is another common reason for Adult Teeth Extractions, and it occurs when the gums become inflamed and begin to recede from the teeth.
What are the Symptoms?
- Gum infection or inflammation
- Partially impacted teeth
- Impacted teeth
- Decayed teeth
- Overcrowded teeth
Types of Extractions:
- Simple Extraction
- Surgical Extraction
How Long is Recovery?
Recovery times vary depending on the type of extraction performed. Simple extractions usually heal within a few days, while more complex extractions may take a week or longer. Following your dentist's or oral surgeon's instructions for care after an extraction is important to prevent infection and promote healing.
