USE OF MODERN TECHNOLOGY TO ACHIEVE THE BEST RESULTS POSSIBLE

We understand that having a tooth removed can be an upsetting and anxious experience. Whenever possible, we will always try to help you save your tooth; however, if extraction is necessary, we will do everything we can to make the procedure as comfortable and straightforward as possible.

The most common reasons for tooth extraction include severe tooth decay, a fractured or broken tooth, the need to reduce dental crowding, lowering the risk of infection, or preparation for a denture.

Tooth extraction procedures today are far less painful than ever before, thanks to effective anaesthetics. In many cases, patients experience little or no discomfort and only minor bleeding following an extraction.

We will always ensure that the area is completely numb before removing any tooth. We also have an excellent team of dentists available for more complex cases, including wisdom tooth removal.

Most tooth extractions are straightforward procedures, followed by at-home care that includes rest and gentle care of the extraction site. Some patients may need to take antibiotics, and all patients should follow post-operative instructions carefully to reduce the risk of infection. Smoking, vigorous brushing, rinsing, and drinking liquids through straws are discouraged during the recovery period, as they can hinder healing and may cause the wound to reopen.

Wisdom Teeth:

Wisdom teeth normally emerge from the gums after the age of 17. They are the last of the large grinding teeth at the back of the mouth to appear. Some people never develop wisdom teeth, while others may have up to four—one in each corner of the mouth.

Often, wisdom teeth cause no problems; however, sometimes there is not enough space in the mouth for them to emerge properly. When this happens, they are described as impacted. Impacted wisdom teeth can cause pain, swelling, infection, or damage to neighbouring teeth.

If you experience problems such as infection, cysts or tumours, tooth decay, or gum disease around a wisdom tooth, you should consider having it removed. However, if you have impacted wisdom teeth that are not causing any problems, removal is not always necessary.
