Pain-free Tooth Extraction in East Grinstead

  1. Been told you need to remove infected or damaged teeth?
  2. Believe your tooth is beyond saving?
  3. Is the tooth already loose or wobbly?
  4. Impacted and erupting wisdom teeth causing you pain?
  5. Too many teeth in the mouth causing overcrowding?

If you have one tooth that’s always been a problem and causes pain, book a check-up (£58) and consult with our gentle dentists about tooth extraction.

Dr Rahul Nehra wanted to say:

“Though we prioritise preventative and restorative care and will do everything possible to save a tooth before considering extraction, sometimes, in particularly complex decay cases, it is the only option. Extraction may be necessary if you have a severe dental pulp infection or have lost gum or bone tissue due to advanced gum disease. We may also need to extract one or more teeth to reduce crowding before orthodontic treatment.”

Your smile is in safe hands.

There might be a chance we can avoid tooth extraction

To avoid leaving you toothless, which is the last thing we want to do, we always explore alternative treatments to save the tooth from being pulled.

What we can do:

  1. Root canals from £450 to treat infections at the root.
  2. Apicoectomy to remove damaged tissue.

The tooth extraction procedure explained for nervous patients

  1. Your dentist will administer a local anaesthetic if you require a simple extraction.
  2. They will then rock the tooth back and forth in its socket using a pair of tiny forceps, loosening it gradually until it can be removed.

The procedure is relatively quick and pain-free, with only pressure being felt.

What about a complex, surgical extraction?

The only difference between a complex and simple extraction is the recovery period.

The term “complex extraction” covers cases such as problematic wisdom teeth or any other tooth hidden beneath the gum line. These cases may require more invasive treatment methods, such as surgically removing gum and bone tissue. In these cases, patients will be under local anaesthetic, with further sedation options (IV and oral) for particularly phobic patients.

Don’t want to be left without a tooth? You don’t have to deal with a gap!

  1. Replace the tooth and the root with a single dental implant costing £1,995, including the implant, abutment and tooth-coloured crown.
  2. If you have teeth on either side, a dental bridge costing £950 can be used to bridge the gap.
  3. A partial denture held in place by metal clasps costs £425.

Aftercare advice

After an extraction, you must take care of the socket to avoid complications.

Refrain from consuming hot foods and drinks, using a straw, smoking, vigorous rinsing, or aggravating the extraction site when brushing.

“My regular dentist referred me to Dr Nehra and The Smile Gallery for a tooth extraction. I felt comfortable and in very safe hands when I walked in. Dr Nehra took the time to discuss my options and help me make an important decision. He and the rest of the team were all outstanding. I left the practice with clear instructions on ensuring that my socket heals properly. It’s been three days since, and all is well so far.” Paul, Tunbridge Wells

Dr. Esen and Olivia were extremely gentle on me. I'm a big baby! Dr. Esen numbed my gum and I felt nothing more while she filled the upper tooth. Thank you.

So pleased I went to the Smile Gallery. I’ve had two veneers done with them as well as my usual check ups. Can’t fault them!

A colleague of mine recommended this brilliant team 👏 😀 that I can only speak highly of when it comes to their professionalism and dedication. I happen to live quite far BUT that honestly is all worth it. Dr Rahul & Dr Jaime ABSOLUTELY THE BEST 👏 👌 I know it's going to be a long journey for me but having such wonderful team will make the process less stressful. I can't thank them enough for being ever so patient, also the ever so lovely receptists whomno matter how busy they are they always welcome you with such warmth. Huge thanks for making a difference to those of us that in a way left it a bit "too late" going to the dentist.
