At Clínica Áureo we understand that the idea of a tooth extraction can generate doubts or fear, but sometimes it is the best solution to protect oral health and avoid more serious complications. Our approach always begins with preserving your natural teeth, resorting to extraction only when it is strictly necessary.
Exodontia, or tooth extraction, is a dental procedure that consists of removing a tooth from its socket when it cannot be repaired or is compromising oral health. Although it involves losing a tooth, it is a simple intervention performed under local anesthesia in a fully controlled environment.
At Clínica Áureo, we pay attention to every detail of the process to ensure maximum comfort, with special care during the postoperative phase to minimize discomfort such as inflammation or mild pain.
In many cases, conservative treatments (root canals, reconstructions, orthodontics) may be an option. However, there are situations in which extraction is the most advisable alternative:
• Deep cavities that irreversibly affect the tooth root.
• Persistent infections that do not respond to other treatments.
• Fractured teeth or severe vertical cracks.
• Advanced periodontal disease with bone loss and tooth mobility.
• Wisdom teeth in poor position, causing pain, repeated infections, or damaging adjacent teeth.
• Retained, supernumerary, or impacted teeth.
• Traumatic injuries with irreparable damage.
When we confirm that extraction is unavoidable, we always perform a complete radiographic study to plan the intervention in the safest, most precise, and efficient way possible.
The process is designed to ensure the patient feels calm and in good hands:
1. Diagnosis and planning through X-rays and clinical examination.
2. Application of local anesthesia to guarantee a painless procedure.
3. Simple or surgical extraction, depending on the case complexity.
4. Cleaning of the socket, bleeding control, and sutures if necessary.
5. Postoperative follow-up with personalized reviews and recommendations.
The success of the treatment also depends on proper aftercare. At Clínica Áureo we recommend:
• Keeping gauze with gentle pressure for the first few hours.
• Avoiding vigorous rinsing or spitting during the first day.
• Following a soft, lukewarm diet, avoiding very hard or hot foods.
• Not smoking or drinking alcohol for at least 48 hours.
• Following the hygiene and medication guidelines indicated by the dentist.
With these measures, recovery is usually quick, and discomfort decreases progressively in just a few days.
After the loss of a tooth, it is important to consider replacement, since bone may atrophy or resorb over time. At Clínica Áureo we offer dental implant solutions that allow you to:
• Restore the aesthetics and function of your smile.
• Prevent bone loss after extraction.
• Place immediate implants in selected cases, reducing time and discomfort.
• Team of dentists with specialized training and extensive experience.
• Advanced technology that enables minimally invasive procedures.
• Personalized and close attention at every stage of the treatment.
• Comprehensive follow-up, from diagnosis to final rehabilitation.
In short, if you are looking for a trustworthy place for a tooth extraction in Palma de Mallorca, Clínica Áureo offers the combination of experience, technology, and personalized care that ensures your peace of mind and well-being.
