How long does tooth extraction and filling take?

Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Guo Huijie
The duration for tooth extraction and filling depends on the type of procedure and the patient's oral condition. Generally, the process requires about 2–3 visits, with each appointment lasting approximately 30 minutes. For routine extractions and fillings, treatment is usually completed within 2–3 weeks. However, more complex cases may take longer, possibly several months to complete. Patients should follow their dentist's instructions and maintain proper oral hygiene and care.
