About Routine Tooth Extraction
Routine tooth extraction is a common dental procedure used to remove teeth that are severely decayed, damaged, or causing crowding. At Yanga Dental Clinic, our extractions are carried out with care, precision, and minimal discomfort using advanced tools and gentle techniques.
Extractions are often necessary to preserve your overall oral health and prevent further complications. Before the procedure, we’ll assess your tooth, explain the process, and use local anesthesia to keep you completely comfortable.
Healing is typically quick, and you’ll be given clear aftercare instructions to promote recovery and avoid infection.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is a tooth extraction necessary?
It’s needed when a tooth is too damaged to repair, is severely decayed, or is crowding other teeth.
Is the procedure painful?
No. We use local anesthesia so you won’t feel pain during the procedure — just mild pressure.
How long does it take to heal?
Initial healing happens in a few days. Complete recovery may take 1–2 weeks.
What can I eat after an extraction?
Stick to soft foods like yogurt, mashed potatoes, and soups for the first 48 hours.
Will I need a replacement after extraction?
If the tooth plays a major role in chewing or aesthetics, we may recommend implants, dentures, or bridges after healing.
