Tooth Extractions
A tooth extraction is a common dental procedure that involves safely removing a tooth from its socket when it can no longer be restored. Extractions are often needed to relieve pain, stop the spread of infection, or create space for orthodontic care. They may also be recommended for impacted wisdom teeth or severe decay that affects surrounding teeth.
At Lisgar Park Dental in Toronto, our team provides both simple and surgical tooth extractions with your comfort in mind. Using gentle techniques, local anesthesia, and advanced equipment, we ensure your treatment is smooth, precise, and stress-free.

Here’s what happens during your extraction appointment, from consultation to recovery support.
Comprehensive Examination and Assessment
Your dentist carefully evaluates your tooth condition, takes necessary X-rays, and reviews your medical history to determine the safest extraction approach.
Treatment Plan Discussion
We explain the procedure in detail, discuss sedation options for your comfort, and review alternatives like dental implants or bridges for future tooth replacement.
Anesthesia and Comfort Preparation
Local anesthesia is administered to ensure complete numbness, and we confirm you're comfortable before beginning the gentle extraction process.
Safe and Gentle Tooth Removal
Your dentist carefully removes the tooth using precise techniques, minimizing discomfort while protecting surrounding bone and tissue for optimal healing.
Aftercare and Recovery Guidance
We place a protective gauze, provide detailed healing instructions, and prescribe any necessary medications to ensure a smooth, comfortable recovery.
At Lisgar Park Dental, your comfort is our top priority throughout the entire procedure.
1
We administer local anesthesia to fully numb the treatment area, ensuring you remain comfortable and relaxed during the extraction.
2
While you won’t experience any pain, you may notice some sensation as we carefully loosen and extract the tooth. This is completely normal and means the procedure is progressing smoothly.
3
We maintain open communication throughout your visit. If anything feels uncomfortable, simply speak up and we’ll immediately address your concerns and adjust our approach.
Taking proper care after a tooth extraction helps your mouth heal quickly and comfortably. By following these simple steps, you can reduce discomfort and lower the risk of complications.
Immediate Care (First Hour)
To help control bleeding, bite gently but firmly on the gauze pad for about 30 to 45 minutes. If light bleeding continues, replace the gauze with a fresh piece and apply gentle pressure for another half hour.
Protecting Your Healing (First 3 Days)
A protective blood clot will form in the socket, which is essential for proper healing. To keep it in place, avoid:
Rest and Recovery
Take it easy for the rest of the day. Avoid strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for at least 24 hours to prevent renewed bleeding and promote faster recovery.
Need guidance?
If you have questions or notice anything unusual, our team at Lisgar Park Dental is always here to guide you and make sure your healing stays on track.
Managing Pain & Swelling
Apply an ice pack for 10–15 minutes to reduce swelling and ease pain.
Take pain medication early to manage discomfort and stay comfortable.
Finish all antibiotics as prescribed to prevent infection and aid healing.
Mild swelling for 48–72 hours is normal and part of your recovery.
Diet & Oral Care
Stick to soft foods like soups and yogurt, and stay well hydrated.
Chew on the opposite side for a few days to protect the site.
Avoid brushing the area for 24 hours to keep the clot in place.
After 24 hours, rinse gently with warm salt water twice daily.
Brush and floss carefully to keep your mouth clean as you heal.
Most patients feel comfortable after 2–3 days and can return to normal activities. You can typically resume a normal diet within 5–7 days. We’ll schedule a follow-up appointment to monitor your healing progress.

Most patients feel better within 2–3 days and can return to normal activities. The extraction site typically closes in 7–10 days, though complete bone healing takes a few weeks. We’ll guide you through what to expect.

Stick to soft foods for the first 2–3 days: mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, yogurt, smoothies, and lukewarm soup. Avoid crunchy or chewy foods and don’t use straws. Gradually reintroduce solid foods as you heal.
