COMPLETE CARE FOR A HEALTHY SMILE
Our Tooth Extraction & Minor Oral Surgery Services
Simple Tooth Extraction
A simple tooth extraction may be recommended when a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, or otherwise unsuitable for preservation. The procedure involves carefully loosening and removing the affected tooth.
Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Wisdom teeth can sometimes become impacted, crowded, difficult to clean, or associated with pain and infection. Depending on their position and condition, wisdom tooth extraction may be recommended to address existing problems or prevent complications.
Removal of Decayed / Damaged Teeth
Severely decayed or damaged teeth may not always be suitable for restorative treatment. When a tooth cannot be predictably preserved, extraction can help remove the source of discomfort or infection and support overall oral health.
Management of Dental Infections
Dental infections can develop in or around a tooth and may cause pain, swelling, sensitivity, or difficulty chewing. Treatment focuses on identifying the source of infection and providing appropriate dental care, which may include drainage, root canal treatment, extraction, or other necessary procedures.
Treatment of Dental Abscess
A dental abscess is a collection of infection that may occur around a tooth or within the surrounding tissues. Prompt dental evaluation is important, as an abscess may require treatment such as drainage, root canal treatment, or extraction depending on the cause and condition of the tooth.
Emergency Tooth Extraction
Severe toothache, extensive damage, or certain acute dental problems may sometimes require urgent extraction. We provide timely assessment to determine whether extraction is appropriate and help manage the immediate dental concern.
Minor Oral Surgical Procedures
Some dental conditions may require procedures beyond a routine extraction. Minor oral surgery may be recommended based on the position, condition, or complexity of the tooth and surrounding tissues.

FAQs – Tooth Extraction & Minor Oral Surgery
When does a tooth need to be extracted?
Extraction may be recommended when a tooth is severely decayed, extensively damaged, infected, impacted, or otherwise cannot be predictably restored. Your dentist will evaluate whether the tooth can be saved before recommending removal.
Is tooth extraction painful?
Tooth extraction is performed with appropriate local anaesthesia to numb the treatment area. You may experience pressure during the procedure, and some soreness or discomfort can occur afterward as the area heals.
How long does a simple tooth extraction take?
The time varies depending on the tooth and its condition. A straightforward extraction may be relatively quick, while more complex teeth may require additional time.
What is the difference between simple and surgical tooth extraction?
A simple extraction is generally used when the tooth is accessible and can be removed without surgical access. A surgical extraction may be required when a tooth is impacted, broken below the gumline, or otherwise more difficult to remove.
When should wisdom teeth be removed?
Wisdom tooth removal may be recommended when a wisdom tooth is impacted, repeatedly infected, causing pain, difficult to clean, damaging neighbouring teeth, or creating other dental problems.
Can a severely decayed tooth be saved instead of extracted?
In some cases, a severely damaged tooth may still be treatable with procedures such as Root Canal Treatment and a dental crown. If the tooth cannot be predictably restored, extraction may be considered.
What is a dental abscess?
A dental abscess is a localized collection of infection that can develop around a tooth or in surrounding tissues. It may cause pain, swelling, tenderness, or pus and requires prompt dental evaluation.
Can a dental abscess go away on its own?
A dental abscess should not be relied upon to resolve on its own. Dental treatment is generally needed to address the source of the infection. Depending on the situation, treatment may involve drainage, Root Canal Treatment, extraction, or other appropriate care.
Can I get an emergency tooth extraction?
If you have severe tooth pain, significant damage, or an acute dental problem, an urgent dental assessment can determine whether emergency extraction is necessary. Not every dental emergency requires extraction.
What should I do after a tooth extraction?
Follow the specific aftercare instructions provided by your dentist. Generally, you should protect the extraction site, avoid disturbing the healing area, and maintain appropriate oral hygiene as instructed.
How long does it take to recover after tooth extraction?
Healing time varies depending on the tooth, complexity of the extraction, and individual healing. Your dentist can provide more specific guidance based on your procedure.
Can I eat normally after tooth extraction?
You may need to modify your diet temporarily after an extraction. Your dentist will advise you on suitable foods and when you can gradually return to your normal diet.
What are the signs of an infection after extraction?
Increasing pain or swelling, fever, pus, unpleasant taste or odour, or other worsening symptoms may require dental evaluation. Contact your dentist if you are concerned about your healing.
Is minor oral surgery different from tooth extraction?
Yes. Tooth extraction specifically involves removing a tooth, while minor oral surgery refers to a broader range of procedures involving the teeth, gums, or surrounding oral tissues.
Can an extracted tooth be replaced?
Yes. Depending on your oral health and individual situation, replacement options may include a dental implant, dental bridge, or removable dental prosthesis. Your dentist can discuss suitable options after evaluating the extraction site.
When should I see a dentist for a painful tooth?
If tooth pain is persistent, severe, associated with swelling, or affecting eating or sleeping, you should seek a dental evaluation rather than delaying treatment. Early assessment can help determine whether the tooth can be treated or needs extraction.
