We may recommend a tooth extraction if you have an infection that is negatively affecting the condition of your oral health

Whether you require standard tooth removal or more complex dental surgery, tooth extraction is a common procedure that can be performed with very little discomfort.

Some of the Common Reasons for Tooth Extraction are:

Dentists remove teeth for various reasons, such as:

  • Dental Cavities.
  • Gum Disease.
  • Trauma or Injury to the Tooth.
  • Wisdom Teeth Ache.
  • Preparation for a Dental Prosthesis.
  • Dental Infections.
  • Preparation for Dental Braces.

You will be given aftercare instructions regarding how to care for your mouth as it heals, what to expect, and what to do if you experience complications.

We would be happy to schedule a follow-up appointment to address any additional concerns you may have.

Simple Extraction

Your dentist in Crowborough will usually use a simple extraction when the tooth is visible in the mouth. To be sure this is an appropriate method, your dentist will first take X-rays of your teeth and ask you about your medical history, including whether you are currently taking any medications.

Surgical Extraction

You need a surgical extraction if your tooth is broken off at the gum line or it has not yet erupted. Only some general dentists are qualified to carry out surgical extractions, along with all oral surgeons.

The process involves cutting a small incision into your gum to access the tooth. Sometimes, it is also necessary to remove some of the bone around the tooth or cut the tooth into pieces to extract it. Although the procedure is more complex than a simple extraction, it is often possible to receive a surgical tooth extraction under local anaesthetic.

This may be administered through an injection or IV.

Amazing place, fantastic staff, receptionist lovely & really made us feel welcome. Free Consultation with Shiv was superb, free 3D teeth scan (Itero scan) 3 pairs of Viera retainers. Attention to detail is incredible with the latest equipment & technology, you know exactly what you’re getting. I had been researching a lot before I made my decision for my daughter to get her teeth straightened and a great experience so far. My daughter was feeling tense & anxious, but the dentist made her feel comfortable, safe & at ease. The name says it all! My daughter cannot wait for the Invisalign treatment to start and to see the results. Couldn't recommend high enough.
