Tooth extraction is a dental procedure performed for various reasons, such as severe decay, gum diseases, trauma, malaligned teeth, or in preparation for other dental treatments. However, it is not always the preferred option, and dentists carefully assess each case before deciding. Preserving restorable and critical teeth, and avoiding extraction in certain health conditions are prioritized. After tooth extraction, proper care is essential, including following oral hygiene instructions, being cautious with the diet, using gauze to control bleeding, refraining from smoking and alcohol, taking prescribed medications, seeking immediate dental attention if needed, and attending regular check-ups for a successful recovery. The healing process varies for each individual, and compliance with the dentist's recommendations is crucial.
