I would like to

It is not always possible to save a tooth and sometimes a tooth has to be removed.

Usually, a tooth extraction is necessary because of decay or because the structure of the tooth has been damaged beyond repair. Some orthodontic treatments might initially involve removing teeth because of overcrowding.

What can I expect if I have a tooth removed?

The area around the tooth is numbed with a local anaesthetic so that you remain comfortable throughout the procedure. Once the anaesthetic has taken effect the tooth will be removed and it should not take more than a few minutes.

What should I do after the extraction?

  • Avoid hot drinks and food for 24 hours
  • After 24 hours use a warm, saltwater rinse
  • Take care not to dislodge the blood clot that had formed
  • If there is bleeding, bite down on a sterile cotton pad or tissue
  • Take painkillers as needed
  • Brush and clean teeth gently
  • Contact the practice if there is any excessive bleeding or pain
