What is a Tooth Extraction for?
Tooth extraction is the professional removal of a tooth. This may be required when a tooth is too damaged to restore or when it contributes to other oral health issues. While the idea of dental extraction can feel intimidating, our modern techniques make it fast, safe, and virtually painless.
When is Tooth Extraction Necessary?
Common reasons for tooth extraction include:
- Impacted or symptomatic wisdom teeth
- Severely fractured or non-restorable teeth
- Advanced periodontal disease
- Extensive caries or pulpal infection
- Orthodontic space management
- Recurrent dental abscesses or chronic infection

What Happens during a Tooth Removal Surgery?
We tailor each treatment to your situation:
Simple Extraction
For teeth that are visible above the gum line. After numbing the area, we gently loosen and remove the tooth using forceps. Quick, safe, and pain-free.
Surgical Extraction
Required when teeth are broken, impacted, or trapped under the gum. This may involve small incisions or sectioning the tooth. All done with care and precision under anaesthetic.
Recovery After Tooth Extraction
Looking after the area properly helps speed up healing and prevent complications. Here’s how to take care of yourself after your extraction:

Frequently Asked Questions
01How painful is a tooth extraction?
You won’t feel pain during the procedure due to local anaesthesia, though you may feel pressure. Some discomfort or swelling is common after, especially in the first 48 hours. This can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relief within a few days during recovery.
02How long does it take to recover?
Healing times can vary, but most patients feel comfortable again within a few days. Full recovery after dental extraction typically takes 1–2 weeks, with the most important healing happening in the first 72 hours. We’ll give you personalised aftercare instructions to promote fast healing and reduce the risk of complications.
