The time needed for extraction is related to the type and condition of the teeth to be extracted. If you are extracting milk teeth and loose teeth, it only takes a few minutes; if you are extracting complicated teeth such as stumps, crowns, or wisdom teeth, it takes 0.5 hours to 1 hour, or even longer.
1. Extraction of milk teeth and loose teeth: when milk teeth need to be extracted, the roots of milk teeth are often partially resorbed and become loose, and loose permanent teeth are mostly caused by periodontal disease, etc. Therefore, the operation of extracting milk teeth and loose teeth is simple and the process is short, which usually takes only a few minutes to complete.
2. Remnants of roots, crowns or wisdom teeth: Because of long-term chronic inflammation stimulation, the roots, crowns, etc. are obviously adhered to the alveolar bone, which makes the extraction operation complicated, and the extraction process usually takes about 0.5 hours to 1 hour, and it may take about 1 hour to 2 hours, or even longer if the root is broken off or ambiguous blocked teeth are extracted.
Extraction is a common surgical operation in stomatology, it is recommended that the person who needs to extract the tooth should go to the hospital in time, complete the examination, and be operated by a professional dentist, so as to avoid any adverse consequences.
