Issue i have a abscess that just came up and iam going to the oral surgeon will he be able to pull it? Best Tip This is a tough call over the internet. Sometimes the treatment of choice is to remove the source of infection. If you have a diffuse abscess, extraction is a bad idea without having antibiotics first. If it is very localized, there may not be any risk to removing the tooth. In fact, this might just be the best treatment. Remove the tooth and clean out the abscess directly. You'll have to let the oral surgeon see your tooth and an x-ray and then he/she will decide. Others You have to go through antibiotics first, for about a week. I'm going through it right now and getting the tooth pulled on saturday. If he just pulls it that day, the poisons in the abcess could get into your bloodstream. Good luck! usually they have to put u on antibiotics first so infection doesnt get into blood stream but i have heard of some doing it anyway You might want to call first, usually we put someone with an abcess on antibiotics for at least 5 days before an extraction. Main reason is, it is difficult to get the area numb when there is a lot of infection in the area. However, a lot of oral surgeons won't care about that and will go ahead and pull the tooth so the best thing to do is call first thing in the morning and they should be able to tell you what to do. Good luck to you. I am a dental professional. No he cant pull it as it is abcessed and sore.He will likely give you antibotics to get the swelling down so he can pull the tooth. past experience |
