Tooth Extraction in London
See how London’s best dentists can help with your tooth extraction needs.
What is a Tooth Extraction?
A tooth extraction is a dental procedure that involves the removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. This treatment is typically necessary when a tooth is damaged beyond repair, affected by severe decay, or causing problems such as overcrowding or infection.
The process is carried out by our skilled dentists using specialised tools and techniques to ensure the tooth is removed safely and with minimal discomfort to the patient. Tooth extraction can be a key step in preserving overall oral health, preventing further complications, and paving the way for additional dental treatments if needed.
Tooth removal is required at times for improved oral health and a pre-requisite for a tooth restoration procedure such as dental implants.

The Process of a Tooth Removal
Here's a detailed breakdown of what to expect during a tooth extraction procedure at MyHealthcare Clinic:
- Step 1: Consultation and Assessment. The journey begins with a thorough consultation at MyHealthcare Clinic. Our experienced dentists will review your dental history, examine your teeth, and discuss the reasons for the extraction. Understanding that dental procedures can be a source of anxiety, we offer a range of comfort measures, including sedation options, to ensure your ease and relaxation throughout the process.
- Step 2: Preparing for Extraction. Preparation is key to a successful tooth extraction. This may involve taking X-rays to understand the tooth's position and condition. We ensure the area around the tooth is thoroughly numbed using local anaesthesia, making the procedure as pain-free as possible. Our approach is focused on your safety and comfort, minimising any discomfort.
- Step 3: The Extraction Process. With the area numbed, our dentist will gently and skillfully remove the tooth. This is done using precise techniques and specialised tools to ensure the process is smooth and efficient. We take great care to cause the least disturbance to surrounding teeth and tissues.
- Step 4: Post-Extraction Care and Instructions. After the tooth is removed, we provide immediate post-extraction care to promote healing and reduce the risk of infection. This includes advice on how to manage any discomfort, guidance on oral hygiene practices, and tips for a speedy recovery.
- Step 5: Recovery and Follow-Up. Recovery after a tooth extraction varies from person to person, but we'll be with you every step of the way. We schedule follow-up appointments as needed to monitor your healing and address any concerns. Our team is always available to provide support and advice post-procedure.
- Step 6: Planning for the Future. If necessary, we discuss future dental plans, such as tooth replacement options like dental implants or bridges, to ensure the long-term health and aesthetics of your smile.
