At Q Dental in Queen’s Park, we perform gentle, pain-free extractions using modern techniques and anaesthesia.
IV sedation is available for anxious patients.
A tooth extraction may be recommended when a tooth is too damaged to be restored with treatments such as a root canal and crown.
Other common reasons include:
Our priority is always to preserve your natural teeth wherever possible, and extraction is only advised when it is the most appropriate option for your oral health.
Before the procedure, a local anaesthetic is used to fully numb the area, so you should not feel pain during the extraction. You may notice some gentle pressure, which is completely normal.
After the procedure, it’s common to experience mild discomfort as the anaesthetic wears off, but this is usually manageable and short-lived. Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how straightforward and comfortable the experience is.
Once the area is numb, your dentist will carefully and gently loosen the tooth before removing it.
In some cases, stitches may be placed to support healing. Where appropriate, dissolvable stitches are used so there is no need for removal later on.
A modern dental practice committed to delivering exceptional care in a calm, welcoming environment.
