Tooth Extractions       from £150*

*Please note that the cost of extractions vary depending on the complexity of the case

​

Here are some of the common reasons why a tooth might have to be  removed:

​

• pain

• abscess

• tooth decay

• gum disease

• prosthetics (false teeth)

• to correct irregular teeth, remove extra

  teeth or to make space.

• cosmetic (for appearance)

​

Usually tooth removal is straightforward and takes a few minutes. You should not feel pain during the procedure but you will feel pressure and hear noises.

​

What you should expect after a tooth extraction:

​

• Some slight bleeding is normal for a day or so - this can be controlled with pressure over the area.

• Your dentist will advise you about using painkillers to help ease any pain.

• Some swelling and bruising is normal and usually at its worst on the second day, but should disappear within a week or two.

• You might also have difficulty opening your mouth wide; again this generally returns to normal within a week or two.
