Tooth extraction

Tooth extraction is performed when a tooth cannot be restored due to serious damage or pathology. In rare cases, tooth extraction may be planned as part of orthodontic or prosthodontic treatment to improve oral health and function.
The decision whether to extract a tooth or attempt to save it is made by the dentist in conjunction with the patient after diagnosing and evaluating the condition of the tooth. Prior to the procedure, the dentist will perform a thorough examination and, if necessary, take x-rays to assess the condition of the tooth root and surrounding tissues.

Wisdom tooth extraction

Wisdom tooth removal is an important dental procedure that requires a professional approach. Wisdom teeth, which typically come in between the ages of 17 and 25, can cause many problems, including pain, inflammation, and even infection. Wisdom teeth removal helps prevent these complications and ensures the health of your teeth and gums. Our clinic offers quality tooth removal services. We use state-of-the-art equipment and modern anaesthetic techniques to make wisdom teeth removal comfortable and painless. Our experienced dentists perform a thorough diagnosis and approach each case individually to ensure the best possible outcome.

To avoid the discomfort and pain that such a procedure can cause, anaesthesia or sedation (dental treatment in sleep) may be used during the tooth extraction process to maximise patient comfort!

Common indications for wisdom teeth extraction

Removal of wisdom teeth is necessary when these teeth are causing complications or threatening the health of other teeth and gums. Removal may be necessary for the following reasons:
  • 1

    Cavities

    Wisdom teeth affected by decay are difficult to treat because of their location and accessibility for cleaning.
  • 2

    Infections and inflammation

    Inflammation of the soft tissue around the wisdom tooth, which can create a risk of infection.
  • 3

    Sacs

    If abnormal masses such as cysts develop, the tooth must be extracted to prevent further complications.
  • 4

    Long-term pain and pressure

    Wisdom teeth can cause chronic pain and put pressure on neighbouring teeth.
  • 5

    Damage to neighbouring teeth

    Improperly positioned wisdom teeth can cause damage to neighbouring teeth.
  • 6

    Displacement of other teeth

    Wisdom teeth pressure can cause the front teeth to shift and crowd together, making the smile less aesthetically pleasing.
