What Is a Surgical Dental Extraction?
When you experience significant dental issues that can't be treated with a simple extraction, a surgical dental extraction might be necessary. These extractions are more involved than regular extractions and require a skilled professional to remove a tooth or a part of a tooth that cannot be easily accessed. At Kaceli Dental Aesthetics, Dr. Monika Kaceli may recommend extractions for a variety of reasons, such as impacted teeth, severely decayed teeth, or complicated tooth structures. It's a more complex process than a simple extraction, and it usually requires making an incision in the gum tissue to access the tooth. The procedure is designed to ensure that the tooth is safely and fully removed without causing damage to surrounding tissues. Dr. Kaceli can evaluate your condition and recommend the best course of action for your tooth. Contact us at our Newton, MA to schedule a consultation today.
How Is a Surgical Dental Extraction Performed?
The process for a surgical dental extraction is performed under local anesthesia to numb the area, ensuring that you feel no pain. In some cases, sedation or general anesthesia may be used to help you relax, especially if the procedure is more complex or if you experience dental anxiety. During the surgical extraction, the dentist will make a small incision into the gum tissue to access the tooth or the roots. If necessary, the tooth may be broken into smaller pieces to make removal easier. After the tooth is removed, the incision is closed with sutures, which may be dissolvable or require a follow-up appointment for removal. Following the procedure, your dentist will provide detailed aftercare instructions. The healing period after a surgical dental extraction typically lasts between 1 to 2 weeks, during which you may experience some swelling and discomfort. Rest, ice packs, and prescribed medications can help manage any discomfort during the recovery phase.
What Are the Benefits of Surgical Dental Extractions?
Choosing a surgical dental extraction at Kaceli Dental Aesthetics can help resolve underlying issues that, if left untreated, could lead to more severe dental problems. The following are just a few of the benefits:
- Relief from pain caused by decayed or infected teeth
- Prevention of further damage to surrounding teeth and gums
- Improved oral health, as removing problematic teeth reduces the risk of infection
- Prevention of misalignment by removing teeth that could interfere with other teeth or the development of proper bite alignment
- Better long-term outcomes in managing dental conditions that may worsen without removal

There’s nothing fun about getting a crown especially in an upper molar but Dr Kaceli was quick and efficient and made it tolerable. She just did my 4th one and didn’t dread it at all.
