Expect a space where the tooth was.

Hello,

Sorry about your tooth, but glad to hear you are getting healthier. The removal of a tooth will require local anesthesia. This will ensure that you do not feel any sharpness and only pressure. Afterward, the removal of the tooth they will give you instructions on how to care for that area in the next few days. You will have some soreness in that area and possibly some stitches. They will also give you some medication for the soreness.
Hope this helps.

My best to you!
