We always aim to keep natural teeth, but sometimes extraction is the best option: very extensive decay, a root fracture, advanced gum disease, or a problematic wisdom tooth.
Before extraction we review your medical history and X-rays, explain how to care for the area, and discuss replacement options if needed.
Why patients seek this treatment
- A tooth that cannot be restored
- A wisdom tooth causing pain or recurrent infection
- As part of an orthodontic plan
- A fractured root
What the first assessment involves
- Reviewing medical history and medications, especially blood thinners
- X-rays to assess roots and nearby structures
- Explaining the procedure and aftercare
- Discussing replacement: implant, bridge or other options
Extraction step by step
Assessment

Anaesthesia
Local anaesthesia, making sure the area is fully numb before starting.
Extraction
Removing the tooth with as little trauma as possible to the surrounding bone and tissue.

Questions & answers
Do I need to replace the tooth afterwards?
Replacement is often advised for chewing and to prevent neighbouring teeth drifting. It depends on the tooth's position; the dentist will advise.
I take blood thinners. What should I do?
Tell the dentist before any extraction and never stop a medication on your own. Any change is coordinated with your physician when needed.
What should I do after an extraction?
Bite on the gauze for the time advised, avoid vigorous rinsing, straws and smoking for the first day, and eat soft food. If bleeding continues or pain gets worse after a few days, contact the clinic.
Can an implant be placed right after extraction?
In selected cases yes, if the site has no active infection and enough bone. This is decided with examination and X-rays before the extraction.
This page offers general information and does not replace an examination. The right treatment is decided after assessing each case.
