Learning objectives
You should:
• understand the indications for removal of a tooth
• know how to complete the preoperative
assessment
• know the techniques available for extraction
• be aware of the potential complications
following extraction and their treatment.
Presurgical Medical Assessment
If anatomy of the root permits (single, conical roots), rotational force may
be applied in addition to buccopalatal or buccolingual pressure. These
movements expand the alveolar bone and also sever all the periodontal
fibers.
Slight traction is also employed at the same time, facilitating the tooth
extraction.
Extraction of Maxillary Incisors &
canine
Extraction Forceps Should Be Seated With Strong Apical
Pressure To Expand Crestal Bone And To Displace Center Of
Rotation As Far Apically As Possible.

Extraction movements:
i) initial labial (L) pressure ; ii) the tooth is brought back to its original position, with
direction of motion continuing to the palatal (P) side ; iii) the final extraction movement is
curved, with the concave part facing upwards

ON THE DAY OF TREATMENT
1.Do not rinse your mouth for at least 24 hours.
2.Avoid hot fluids, alcohol, hard or chewy foods. Choose cool drinks and
soft foods.
3.Avoid vigorous exercise.
4.Smokers should avoid smoking.
5.Should the wound start to bleed, apply a small compress.
This can be made from some cotton wool in a clean handkerchief. Place this
on the bleeding point and bite firmly on it for 5-10 minutes or longer if
necessary.
If you cannot stop the bleeding yourself, please seek professional advice.
6. Any pain or soreness can be relieved by taking the prescribed medication.
If none was prescribed, take tablets such as paracetamol (Panadol) 2 tablets
every 4 hours as required. Do not take more than the recommended number
per day.
STARTING 24 HOURS LATER
• Gently rinse the wound with hot saltwater mouth rinses (or other rinse as
recommended) for a few days. This should be carried out three times a day
after each meal.
