Tooth Forceps

If your tooth is damaged, decayed or broken due to any reason then you must plan a visit to the dentist so as to repair it by different dental restoration techniques like filling, root canal, crown and various other treatments. But, there is time when the tooth is damaged to an extent that it can’t be restored by any technique, in such cases the tooth is extracted from the socket in the bone.
TYPES OF EXTRACTIONS
Simple Extractions vs. Surgical Extractions
In simple extraction the tooth is removed from the gums with the help of forceps. But if the tooth breaks up at the gum line then your dentist needs to remove a gum tissue or bone to extract the left over teeth. This is known as surgical extraction and is often accompanied with a stich to close the site for proper healing. The most common procedure to remove teeth is surgical extraction. The doctor may also prescribe a more specific pain medication following the procedure.
