Emergency oral surgeon Dr. Tsvetov in Murrieta & other areas
Dr. Tsvetov is a reputable Temecula-based oral surgeon with experience in performing regular and emergency dental extractions, extractions for orthodontics and dental implant procedures of varying levels of complexity.
Tooth extraction may be necessary due to advanced tooth decay, gum disease or because a tooth is broken beyond repair. You may even require a same-day emergency tooth extraction. Sometimes patients have healthy teeth that are poorly positioned in the mouth (impacted teeth or teeth that are crowding other teeth) and which need to be taken out. Finally, a healthy tooth may need to be extracted in preparation for orthodontic treatment.
Whether you’re undergoing regular or emergency tooth extraction in Murrieta, extraction of a single tooth or multiple teeth, the procedure needs to be performed properly to prevent issues, such as a negative effect on your chewing ability or your overall dental health. These are common complications of ortho extractions and ortho premolar extractions which Dr. Tsvetov can help you counteract. If you are unable to avoid a tooth extraction, there are viable options for lasting tooth replacement such as innovative high-quality tooth implants.

Let us walk you through the tooth extraction process
While the level of urgency may differ depending on whether you require a regular or emergency tooth extraction, the process is usually the same. At Temecula Facial Oral Surgery, your oral surgeon will take steps to reduce the risk of possible complications which may add to the duration and complexity of the procedure:
You will be administered a local anesthetic to numb the extraction site and the surrounding tissue.
You will experience pain-free pressure at the extraction site caused by the widening of the tooth socket to facilitate tooth removal.
In the event that you do experience pain along with pressure, it is essential that you inform your oral surgeon immediately.
We understand you may experience anxiety and fear over your upcoming tooth extraction procedure even before you have stepped into our office for the first time. But remember that you are in competent hands: Dr. Tsvetov is an experienced oral surgeon who will ease you into the procedure and help you overcome fear and anxiety over emergency extractions or planned extractions before, after or during braces. You can also choose between local and general anesthesia which eliminates pain and minimizes discomfort.

Tooth Extractions Frequently Asked Questions
At what point does a tooth have to be pulled?
Dr. Tsvetov has experience and a strong track record in performing regular or complicated tooth extractions on patients in Escondido, Murrieta and the surrounding areas. Your tooth may need to be pulled out in the following scenarios:
Severe infection caused by advanced gum disease
Tooth damage that is impossible to restore by a filling or a crown
Intense pain caused by a filling, crown, or treatment of a root canal
Insufficient space or crowding in the mouth
Preparation for an orthodontic procedure
Presence of a dental abscess
What happens if you don't get a tooth pulled?
The majority of patients at an advanced stage of a tooth infection require an urgent tooth extraction. But because the procedure sounds intimidating, they always seek alternatives and ways to avoid the emergency extraction procedure.
However, there are serious risks associated with ignoring tooth infection or failure to treat or extract a tooth. Not only is the infection unlikely to heal on its own, but it is also likely to worsen over time, especially without proper medical care. In the late stages of tooth infection, you will also have undergone extensive bone and gum damage.
Can you get a tooth pulled the same day?
You can have a same-day tooth extraction procedure, which we referred to as emergency tooth extraction. Dr. Tsvetov will decide whether you require an emergency dental extraction upon your initial examination.
How long does it take to recover from multiple tooth extractions?
Dr. Tsvetov can handle multiple tooth extractions in Temecula and other areas and patients often ask the same question: does recovery from multiple tooth extractions, such as multiple tooth extractions for orthodontic reasons, take longer than recovery from a single tooth extraction?
Contrary to what you may expect, it does not. You follow the exact same recovery procedure regardless of the number of teeth you have extracted. The same goes for one dental implant vs. multiple dental implants done at once.
Can I eat the same day after tooth extraction?
Recovery from an emergency dental extraction can be tricky as patients often come in unprepared. The number one priority is not to disrupt the natural blood clotting process, as well as to prevent irritation at all costs.
We always give our patients in Murrieta and other communities near Temecula a strict set of dietary recommendations designed to facilitate and speed up the recovery process. The diet should consist of nutrient-rich soft and liquid foods. In the first days following the extraction, stick to the following:
Soups, purées and mashed vegetables and fruits
Smoothies and ice cream
Scrambled eggs
In addition to eliminating hard, crunchy and spicy foods from your diet, you should also avoid extremely hot or cold foods as this, too, may exacerbate irritation. Finally, avoid drinking out of a straw: the resulting suction may counteract the blood clot formation process.
Do I need antibiotics after tooth extraction?
Tooth extraction is normally a safe procedure, but there is always the risk that bacteria could cause an infection at the extraction site. For this reason, Dr. Tsvetov may recommend a course of antibiotics before or after the procedure, especially if you have previously been diagnosed with a condition that could put you at a higher risk of a severe infection.
