A member asked:

Any advice on what to expect after getting a tooth removed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Usually Not Much: Most teeth can be removed quickly, safely, and easily. All you'll experience is a little soreness and perhaps a bit of bruising/swelling afterwards. The area also might ooze for a day or so. However, you'll be completely comfortable during the procedure. You might even be sedated or asleep completely. In some cases, there can be a bit more trauma. Your dentist will tell you what to expect.
