Protecting your oral health for the future

It might feel like bad news when you first hear that a tooth extraction is the ideal course of action for your oral health. However, removing a problematic tooth can significantly benefit your long-term dental health.

Taking out a problem tooth is necessary when:

• Your wisdom teeth are crowding the back of your mouth.
• You have gum disease that has affected the stability of one or more teeth.
• You have severe tooth decay that has progressed beyond the point where the tooth can be successfully restored.
• You have a dental infection that cannot be effectively treated with root canal therapy, meaning extraction is the most appropriate way to remove the infection.

What happens during the extraction?

Your dentist will numb your tooth using a really fine needle. Anaesthetic needles are becoming increasingly less invasive as the dental landscape progresses, and you may be very surprised at how little you feel as we numb your tooth. The tooth is very carefully removed from its socket, and we sometimes place stitches to promote healing when clinically necessary.
