Extractions

At Churchill Dentist, our focus is always on saving and protecting your natural teeth. However, in some cases, a tooth extraction may be the best solution to protect your overall oral health. Our experienced team ensures the procedure is safe, gentle, and as comfortable as possible.

When Is a Tooth Extraction Needed?

Tooth extractions are only recommended when other treatments are not effective. You may need an extraction if you have:

• Severe tooth decay or infection beyond repair

• Advanced gum disease affecting tooth stability

• Broken or fractured teeth that cannot be restored

• Overcrowding before orthodontic treatment

• Impacted wisdom teeth causing pain or complications

What to Expect During an Extraction

At Churchill Dentist, your comfort is our priority. We use modern techniques and local anaesthesia to make the procedure virtually pain-free. Depending on your case, we may perform:

Simple Extraction – For visible teeth that are easily removed.

Surgical Extraction – For teeth that are broken, impacted, or below the gum line.

Aftercare and Recovery

Following your extraction, we provide clear aftercare instructions to support fast healing. This may include:

Taking prescribed medications as directed

Applying a cold compress to reduce swelling

Eating soft foods and avoiding straws for a few days

Maintaining good oral hygiene while avoiding the extraction site initially

Our team is always available to answer questions and ensure a smooth recovery process.
