Surgical extraction is a dental procedure performed when a tooth cannot be easily removed by simple extraction due to reasons like impaction, broken roots, or severe decay. It involves making a small incision in the gum to access and remove the tooth safely. The procedure is usually done under local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. Surgical extractions are commonly needed for wisdom teeth, fractured teeth, or teeth below the gum line. With proper post-operative care, healing is quick and comfortable.
