No! As the dentist will give you local anaesthesia before removing the tooth, you need to have a proper meal or a snack before you visit your dentist for a tooth extraction. Atleast eat something half an hour before you visit your dentist for a tooth extraction.
Health Tips
you should never be fasting before you get your tooth extraction under local anaesthesia.
