Tooth Extraction FAQs

Facial Aesthetics

A tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth. It is typically performed when a tooth is severely damaged, decayed or poses a risk to overall oral health.

Tooth extraction is needed when a tooth is beyond repair due to decay, infection, trauma or even overcrowding. It is also commonly performed for wisdom teeth that are impacted or causing discomfort.

Sedation is not always necessary but is available for those who feel anxious or require a more comfortable experience, especially for complex extractions.

The procedure begins with numbing the area using local anaesthesia. Your dentist will then gently loosen and remove the tooth, ensuring minimal discomfort.

Aftercare includes avoiding strenuous activities, not smoking, and sticking to soft foods while the area heals. Rinsing with salt water to keep the area clean is also recommended.

Although extractions are safe, potential risks include infection, dry socket and prolonged bleeding. Our team provides detailed aftercare instructions to minimise these risks.

Yes, but it’s best to stick to soft foods like yoghurt and soup for the first few days. Avoid chewing on the extraction site to promote healing.
