Teeth extraction is a common dental procedure in which a dentist removes a tooth from its socket in the jawbone when it cannot be saved through other treatments like fillings, crowns, or root canal therapy. This procedure is often necessary due to severe tooth decay, infection, advanced gum disease, injury, or overcrowding that affects the alignment of other teeth. In some cases, wisdom teeth that do not have enough space to grow properly are also removed. The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia to minimize pain, and sometimes sedation is used for patients who are anxious or require surgical extraction.

After the extraction, following proper care is essential to promote healing and prevent complications such as infection or dry socket. The dentist may recommend rest, soft foods, avoiding strenuous activity, and careful oral hygiene. Teeth extraction not only relieves pain and discomfort but also prevents the spread of infection, protects surrounding teeth and gums, and contributes to overall oral health. With proper care and follow-up, patients can maintain a healthy mouth and prevent further dental problems.
