Dental full clearance

Is the procedure of removing and replacing all of a person’s teeth, perhaps as a result of periodontal disease or abscessed teeth.

This can make a big improvement to a person’s oral and general health.

How long does it take to heal from a full mouth extraction?

Recovery from a tooth extraction will generally take between 6 and 10 days . Avoiding strenuous activity and not rinsing the mouth can help keep the blood clot in place and promote healing.

How many teeth can be extracted at the same time?

You can live without one or two teeth without major consequences, but losing several teeth at once requires the jawbone to be reshaped to prepare for a dental bridge or dentures. There is no clear rule on the number of teeth that can safely be extracted in one sitting.

What can I expect from a full mouth extraction?

A full mouth extraction is an outpatient procedure that should only take a couple of hours. Your surgeon begins by thoroughly numbing your teeth and gums. They can also offer sedation to keep you relaxed and comfortable throughout your procedure. They may be able to simply pull your teeth out of your jaw using forceps.

How long after your teeth are pulled can you get dentures?

The dentist will provide you with temporary immediate dentures as the gum tissue heals. Once the tissues are fully healed, the time is right to add dentures to your mouth. In general, it usually takes between six and eight weeks following the tooth extraction for dentures to be placed.
