Our team is here to help
We know that the thought of tooth extraction can be daunting. However, our skilled team is dedicated to guiding you through the procedure with compassion and expertise.
What is a Tooth Extraction?
Extraction is a dental procedure involving the removal of a tooth from its socket. While our primary objective is to preserve your natural teeth, extraction may sometimes be necessary to ensure optimal dental health.
Reasons for a Extraction?
- Severe Tooth Decay or Damage: In cases where a tooth is irreparable due to decay or injury, extraction might be the best solution to prevent the spread of infection.
- Infection: When a dental infection reaches the tooth pulp, causing intense pain or an abscess, extraction may be essential to protect the health of adjacent teeth and tissues.
- Crowded Mouth: To prepare for orthodontic treatments, an extraction might be required to ensure proper alignment.
- Impacted Wisdom Teeth: When wisdom teeth become impacted, it can lead to pain or alignment issues. Removal is typically advised to alleviate discomfort and avoid further complications.
The Extraction Procedure
Our priority is to make your extraction experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible:
- Consultation: We start with a thorough examination and X-rays to assess your dental condition and discuss the extraction process.
- Anaesthesia: Local anaesthesia is administered to numb the area, ensuring a painless procedure.
- Extraction: Using specialised dental tools, we carefully remove the tooth. Depending on your specific needs, we offer both simple and surgical extractions.
- Aftercare: For a smooth recovery effective aftercare is vital. We provide detailed instructions and support to facilitate healing and manage any discomfort.
