Tooth extraction in brief

Tooth extraction is the removal, under local anaesthesia, of a tooth that is badly decayed, broken or has lost its bone support. Extracting a tooth that is fully visible in the mouth is usually quick and rarely needs stitches.

Keeping your natural tooth always comes first, so extraction is only decided after options such as root canal treatment or a filling have been considered. Removing an impacted or partially erupted tooth is a separate surgical procedure and is planned separately at the examination.

A tooth that cannot be saved is removed under local anaesthesia. A blood clot forms in the socket and the bone fills in over time; an implant or bridge is planned if needed.

Why?

When is tooth extraction needed?

The most common situations:

Advanced decayDecay too extensive to be repaired with a filling or root canal treatment.

FractureFractures that extend to the root and cannot be repaired.

Advanced gum diseaseLoose teeth that have lost their bone support.

Space for orthodonticsExtractions recommended by the dentist to create space before braces.

Comparison

Extraction, or a treatment that saves the tooth?

If the tooth can be kept, those options are discussed first. The decision is made after an examination and X-ray.

The tooth can be kept

✓Decay: Can be repaired with a filling or root canal treatment
✓Fracture: Limited to the crown, can be protected with a crown
✓Gums: Bone support can be preserved with treatment

Extraction may be needed

✕Decay: Has reached the root and cannot be repaired
✕Fracture: The root is split along its length
✕Gums: Most of the bone support has been lost

The gap left by an extracted tooth should not be left empty; options such as an implant or a bridge are discussed together at the examination.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about tooth extraction

Does tooth extraction hurt?

The procedure is done under local anaesthesia, so you usually feel no pain, only pressure. There may be some pain for a while after the anaesthetic wears off.

When can I eat after an extraction?

Once the anaesthetic has worn off you can eat lukewarm, soft food. For the first few days, avoid chewing on the extraction side.

How long does the extraction site take to heal?

The gum usually closes within 1–2 weeks. Complete healing of the bone takes a few months.

What can replace an extracted tooth?

Replacing the gap is recommended so that neighbouring teeth do not drift. Options such as an implant or a bridge are discussed at the examination.

Are wisdom teeth removed the same way?

Wisdom teeth that are fully erupted are usually removed this way. Impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth need a separate surgical procedure.

Can a tooth be extracted during pregnancy?

In urgent cases it can be done under suitable conditions. Always tell us you are pregnant before the examination.
