Every day, patients come to the hospital outpatient clinic to inquire about extraction of blocked teeth. Here I will not write about it again. A: No, it doesn’t hurt at all. Patient: Does it really not hurt? A: It’s not like I’m having my teeth pulled, so I’m not in pain anyway. This is just a little joke with the patient to ease the nervous atmosphere. There is sensation during the extraction, but the pain is not obvious. There is some pain when the blocking anesthesia is injected, but more often than not it is due to tension. It is very important to relax and try not to think about the fact that it hurts to have a tooth pulled. Scenario 2: Patient: Will the nerve be hurt after extraction? (A: If I keep asking this question, I will have a nerve before I finish extracting the tooth:). The location of the root tip of many blocked teeth is relatively close to the mandibular nerve, which may be damaged during extraction (although rare), causing a transient numbness of the lower lip, but it will slowly recover. However, it will definitely not cause symptoms of mental retardation, unresponsiveness or facial paralysis. When a tooth is extracted, the doctor takes extra care to try not to injure it. The root of the tooth is close to the nerve canal Scenario 3 Patient: After the tooth is extracted, will the other teeth be loose? A: This question is difficult for me, I don’t think so. So far, I have not encountered any case where all the teeth are loose after extraction. During the process of contact with patients, as a doctor, I will try to create a relaxing atmosphere, make some jokes and play some music to ease the tension. The procedure of tooth extraction usually takes about 3-15 minutes. Try to relax and hold on for a while before you can go home. You will never have to worry about the inflammation and pain of the blocked tooth again. Once and for all. About the precautions after tooth extraction, the complications that may occur after tooth extraction will be refined later. This article is authorized by Dr. Chao Yang.
