Tooth extractions may be necessary when a tooth is irreparably damaged by decay, periodontal disease, or trauma, or when primary teeth need removal to make room for permanent successors. Our team prioritizes gentle techniques, advanced analgesia, and clear aftercare instructions to ensure comfort, rapid healing, and preservation of surrounding tissues for future restorative or orthodontic plans.

Indications for Extraction

• Severe Decay or Fracture: When restoration is not feasible.
• Periodontal Disease: Advanced bone loss leading to mobility.
• Impacted Teeth: Particularly wisdom teeth causing pain or pericoronitis.
• Orthodontic Preparation: Removal of primary or permanent teeth to align the dentition.
• Prosthetic or Restorative Planning: Creating space for dentures, implants, or bridges.

Types of Extractions

1. Simple Extraction

• Performed on teeth visible above the gumline using elevators and forceps.
• Suitable for mobile or fully erupted teeth with adequate crown structure.

2. Surgical Extraction

• Required for impacted, broken, or severely decayed teeth.
• May involve flap elevation, bone removal, or sectioning of the tooth.

3. Wisdom Tooth Removal

• Assessment via panoramic X-ray or CBCT to determine impaction type (mesioangular, distoangular, vertical, horizontal).
• Flap design and bone guttering for safe access to impacted third molars.

Benefits & Considerations

• • Atraumatic Focus: Preserves alveolar bone and soft tissues.
  • Comprehensive Pain Control: Multimodal analgesia and sedation options.
  • Healing Optimization: Socket grafting and proper closure techniques.
  • Risks: Dry socket incidence 2–5%; infection <1%; transient paresthesia risk near nerves.
