In fact, it is not recommended to pull teeth by yourself. Many people think that pulling teeth by yourself is simple, effective and convenient, without going to the hospital and without pain, but this idea is very wrong. Although tooth extraction is a minor surgery, the surgery must be sterile and pulling a tooth by yourself is definitely not done under sterile conditions. There is a wound after tooth extraction, and it is easy to cause wound infection if it is not done under sterile conditions. Moreover, tooth extraction may also cause many complications, such as gum lacerations, bleeding, hematoma, inflammation and infection after tooth extraction, and regional nerve numbness and nerve damage after tooth extraction. These are all complications of tooth extraction, any of which can cause great pain to the patient, and pulling a tooth by yourself increases the chances of these complications. Therefore, if a tooth is extracted, it is still advisable to go to a hospital and let the doctor handle the extraction in a specialist manner.
