What Is a Tooth Extraction?
A tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth that is damaged, decayed, infected, or causing problems for your oral health.
In some cases, removing a tooth is the best way to relieve pain, prevent further infection, or prepare for future dental treatment.
Extractions may be recommended for:
- Severely decayed or broken teeth
- Advanced gum disease
- Infected teeth that cannot be saved
- Overcrowding or orthodontic reasons
- Wisdom teeth causing pain or infection

The Extraction Procedure
- Local anaesthetic is used to fully numb the area, ensuring the procedure is pain-free.
- For routine extractions, the tooth is gently loosened and removed.
- For surgical extractions, a small incision may be made to safely access the tooth.
- Our dentists work carefully and efficiently to minimise discomfort and support healing.
