When is Tooth Extraction Needed?
While we always aim to preserve natural teeth, sometimes complete tooth removal is the best or only option to relieve pain, prevent the spread of infection or protect the health of surrounding teeth and gums. You may need an extraction if you have:
- – Severe tooth decay or infection
- – Cracked, broken or non-restorable teeth
- – Impacted or problematic wisdom teeth
- – Tooth crowding or extra (supernumerary) teeth
- – Dental trauma from an accident or injury
Whether it’s a simple molar extraction or a more complex wisdom tooth removal, our experienced dentists ensure your treatment is safe, efficient and as comfortable as possible.
In pain and need urgent help? We also offer same day tooth extractions for both registered and non-registered patients. Whether you’ve broken a tooth, developed sudden pain, or suffered dental trauma, contact us immediately.
What Happens During a Tooth Extraction?
Our approach to tooth removals is gentle and professional, with your comfort at the centre of every step. Here’s what you can expect:
1. Assessment – We’ll carry out a full examination and possibly take X-rays to determine the best course of action.
2. Anaesthesia – A local anaesthetic will be used to completely numb the area – so you won’t feel pain during the procedure, only some mild pressure. We also offer IV sedation for more nervous patients.
3. Removal – The tooth is carefully and gently extracted. We’ll make sure you feel calm, informed and supported throughout.
4. Aftercare – You’ll receive clear post-op instructions and we’ll discuss tooth replacement options if needed, such as dentures or dental implants.
Nervous About Tooth Removal? You’re Not Alone
Dental anxiety is incredibly common, and something we take seriously. Our team is experienced in supporting nervous patients and will take the time to talk you through everything, step by step, to help ease your concerns.
If the thought of treatment makes you especially anxious, we also offer IV sedation to help you feel calm and relaxed throughout the procedure. This gentle form of sedation allows you to remain conscious but deeply relaxed, often with little memory of the treatment itself.
If you’re in pain, avoiding treatment may only make things worse. We’re here to help you feel safe, listened to and never judged.

Tooth Extraction FAQ
Why do I need a tooth extraction?
Your dentist may recommend a tooth extraction for various reasons including;
- Overcrowding – where there are too may teeth in your mouth
- Severe tooth decay
- Gum disease (Gingivitus)
- Oral injury
- Abscess
- Wisdom teeth removal
You might also need a same-day emergency appointment and emergency tooth removal when an injury results in painful or cracked teeth. If you need an emergency tooth extraction, contact Cheslyn Hay straight away.
Is removing the tooth the only option?
Your dentist may recommend a tooth extraction for various reasons but only when this is the best or only option. Tooth extraction is still reasonably common in dental practices, but dentists only carry out dental removal when the tooth cannot be saved.
If the tooth hurts, then you will likely be keen to have it removed to alleviate discomfort and eliminate pain. Understandably, you may feel nervous or anxious, but the treatment only takes a few minutes, and we can reassure you that the experience is not painful.
What's involved in a tooth extraction?
There are two types of extractions
- A standard extraction
- A surgical extraction
For a standard extraction, the dentist will administer a local anesthetic into the area before using an elevator to loosen the tooth. Once the tooth is loose the dentist will remove it using forceps.
A surgical extraction is not as straightforward. This requires an incision into the gums to gain access to the affected tooth. Although this can be done using a local anesthetic, there are some patients who prefer extraction under sedation.
Aftercare for extractions
The first 24 hours following an extraction it is best to;
Avoid strenuous activity
Avoid using mouthwash
Avoid the area when eating hot or cold food for 24 hrs (this can be done by using the other side of your mouth)
After 24 hoursÂ
Rinse your mouth with a mixture of one teaspoon of salt in a glass of water, 3-4 times per day
Take care when brushing your teeth to avoid bleeding.
Avoid smoking, as this slows down the healing process.
If you have any issues following an extraction contact an emergency dentist immediately.
