Best Answer: Technically, India is a part of Asia; however, the land mass south of the Himalays is often referred to as the Indian Sub-continent, a smaller continent-like area with India, both Pakistans, and probably Nepal.

A surgical extraction is a more complex procedure. It is used if a tooth may have broken off at the gum line or has not come into the mouth yet. Surgical extractions commonly are done by oral surgeons. However, they are also done by general dentists.
Tooth extractions are a very common procedure in dentistry. First, your dentist or the oral surgeon will talk to you about whether you need to take an antibiotic before or after the extraction. Then, the dentist will numb the area around the tooth and prevent you from feeling pain. Then the dentist will remove the tooth.
