Step by Step
What Happens During a
Tooth Extraction at Royal Oak Smiles?
Pre-Extraction Assessment
Digital X-rays and a thorough exam assess the tooth position, root structure, and bone density to plan the safest extraction approach.
Anaesthesia & Sedation
Local anaesthesia ensures complete comfort. IV sedation is available for patients with dental anxiety or complex multi-tooth extractions.
Precise Extraction
Using specialized instruments, the tooth is loosened and removed with minimal force — reducing trauma to surrounding tissue and bone.
Aftercare & Follow-Up
Detailed post-extraction instructions, prescription pain management if needed, and a follow-up to ensure smooth, complication-free healing.

Yes, Dr. Anand Choubal, DDS, is IV sedation accredited through the University of Alberta and holds ACLS certification. IV sedation is available at Royal Oak Smiles for patients with dental anxiety or complex multi-tooth extractions. Under IV sedation, you remain comfortable and have little to no memory of the procedure.
Most patients recover from wisdom tooth extraction within 3 to 7 days. Swelling typically peaks at 48 to 72 hours and then decreases. Royal Oak Smiles provides detailed aftercare instructions including prescription pain management where needed, dietary recommendations, and a follow-up appointment to confirm healing. Complications such as dry socket are uncommon but managed promptly if they occur.
After extraction, the socket heals naturally over several weeks. Dr. Choubal can perform socket preservation — placing a bone graft material in the socket — to maintain bone volume if a dental implant is planned later. This is discussed at your consultation. Without preservation, the jawbone in the area can begin to shrink within weeks of extraction.
