Tooth extractions
At The Dental Centre Oakdale
Tooth extraction may sometimes be necessary to protect your oral health and overall well-being, and even to relieve pain that you might be experiencing. Luckily, our skilled dental team is committed to providing safe and comfortable tooth extraction procedures tailored to your specific needs. Whether it’s a severely decayed tooth, a problematic wisdom tooth, or any other dental concern, you can trust us to deliver gentle and effective care.
Why Tooth Extraction Might Be Needed
Severe Tooth Decay: If a tooth is extensively decayed or damaged and cannot be restored through other dental treatments such as fillings, crowns, or root canals, tooth extraction may be recommended. Removing the tooth can prevent the spread of infection and protect the surrounding teeth and gums.
Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Wisdom teeth often do not have enough space to properly emerge and may become impacted. Impacted wisdom teeth can cause pain, infection, and damage to neighbouring teeth. We can safely extract impacted wisdom teeth to alleviate discomfort and prevent potential complications.
Orthodontic Treatment: In some cases, tooth extraction is necessary as part of orthodontic treatment to create space for proper tooth alignment. Removing one or more teeth can help achieve the desired results and improve overall oral health.
Advanced Gum Disease: Advanced periodontal (gum) disease can lead to tooth loss due to the deterioration of the supporting structures around the teeth. When the gums and bone are severely affected, extraction may be necessary to eliminate infection and prevent further damage.
The Dental Centre’s Gentle Tooth Extraction Process
Step 1
Before recommending a tooth extraction, our skilled dentists will conduct a thorough examination, which may include dental X-rays. This evaluation allows us to assess the condition of the affected tooth, determine the best approach for extraction, and discuss the procedure and any necessary aftercare instructions with you.
Step 2
We know that each patient’s situation is unique, so our dental team will develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and concerns. We will take the time to address any questions or concerns you may have, ensuring you feel comfortable and informed throughout the process.
Step 3
Our priority is to provide a comfortable and stress-free experience during your tooth extraction procedure. We utilise local anaesthesia to numb the area around the tooth, ensuring minimal discomfort during the extraction. For patients with dental anxiety, we also offer sedation options to help you relax throughout the procedure.
Step 4
Following the extraction, our dental team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to promote proper healing. We will discuss tooth replacement options, such as dental implants, bridges, or dentures, if necessary, to restore function and aesthetics to your smile.
Comfortable and Relaxing Extraction with Sedation Options
We understand that dental extractions can be an anxiety-inducing experience for some patients. That’s why we provide a comfortable and stress-free environment for everyone who walks through our doors. If you are a nervous patient in need of extractions, we offer sedation options to help you feel at ease throughout the procedure.
Our experienced dental team is trained in providing sedation dentistry to ensure your complete comfort and relaxation during extractions. We offer various sedation methods, including oral sedation and intravenous (IV) sedation, tailored to meet the specific needs of each patient. These techniques induce a state of deep relaxation and help alleviate any dental anxiety you may have.

Tooth Extractions FAQS
Will tooth extraction be painful?
At The Dental Centre Oakdale, our priority is to ensure your comfort during your tooth extraction procedure. For tooth extractions, we use local anaesthesia to numb the area around the tooth being extracted, ensuring that you experience minimal discomfort or pain during the procedure. For patients with dental anxiety or who require additional relaxation, we also offer sedation options to help you feel more at ease throughout the process.
How long does it take to recover after tooth extractions?
The recovery period after a tooth extraction can vary depending on several factors, including the complexity of the extraction and your individual healing process. Generally, it takes about a few days to a week to recover fully. You may experience some swelling, discomfort, or mild pain during this time, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and following the post-operative care instructions provided by our dental team. It’s important to maintain good oral hygiene and avoid activities that could disrupt the healing process, such as smoking or using a straw.
What tooth replacement options are available after tooth extractions?
After tooth extractions, you may wish to consider tooth replacement options to restore your smile’s function and aesthetics. Depending on your specific case, our dental team at The Dental Centre Oakdale may recommend options such as dental implants, bridges, or dentures to replace the extracted tooth. We will evaluate your oral health and discuss the most suitable tooth replacement option for you.
