Private simple tooth extraction procedure costs and locations

What is a simple tooth extraction procedure?

A simple tooth extraction is a routine procedure to remove a visible, intact tooth. The area around the tooth is numbed with local anaesthetic and the surgeon gently loosens the tooth using a dental elevator. The tooth is then lifted out with forceps. The procedure usually takes between 15-30 minutes and is entirely painless.

Why is it performed?

A simple tooth extraction may be recommended when a tooth is damaged, decayed or causing ongoing problems that cannot be resolved with other treatments. Removing the tooth can help relieve discomfort, protect your oral health and support your future dental care.

What the procedure involves

A simple tooth extraction is a procedure to remove a tooth that can be accessed easily. Your specialist will explain what to expect before your appointment and provide guidance on your aftercare and recovery.
