Tooth extraction involves the removal of a tooth from its socket in the bone. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia to ensure you are comfortable throughout. We carefully extract the tooth and provide aftercare instructions to support a smooth recovery. In cases where an extraction is part of a broader treatment plan, such as for orthodontic purposes, we will discuss the next steps with you.
