When a tooth simply can't be saved, we remove it as gently and carefully as we can.
A tooth might need to come out for several reasons — advanced decay, infection, established gum disease, a fracture, or simple lack of space. We always weigh up whether the tooth can be saved before considering extraction, and if removal really is the better path, we keep you comfortable with effective local anaesthetic and current technique. Around 95% of the extractions we carry out are routine, uncomplicated procedures. Occasionally a tooth is too badly broken down, has fractured beneath the gum line, or is otherwise tricky to remove safely, and in those instances a surgical extraction is the safer approach — something we'll always explain clearly before proceeding.

Most people only need a routine extraction — this covers around 95% of cases. If your tooth is badly broken, fractured below the gum, or awkward to remove safely, a surgical extraction may be suggested instead.
No — local anaesthetic fully numbs the area before we begin. You may feel some pressure during the procedure, but it shouldn't be painful.
Yes, IV conscious sedation is available for suitable patients aged 18 and over at an additional cost — see our Sedation Dentistry page for further details.
We'll run through detailed aftercare instructions before you leave — following them closely reduces the risk of complications and speeds up healing.
Yes — an implant, bridge or denture could all be suitable, depending on where the tooth was. We'll discuss these once your mouth has had time to settle.
