Tooth Extractions by Experienced Dentists
At Pine Dental, we provide pain-free and comfortable tooth extractions in Sutton. This procedure is the permanent removal of a tooth from the mouth and is a necessary last resort where the tooth cannot be saved.
Your dentist will ensure that the tooth and gum are thoroughly numb prior to treatment to ensure a pain-free, comfortable process. The tooth will then be removed safely and with as little intervention as possible. After a few months of healing, replacement options such as a denture, bridge or implant will be offered if you are eligible.
When is Tooth Extraction Needed?
- Extreme tooth decay which cannot be fixed through fillings.
- Advanced gum disease that has weakened the supporting bone.

A tooth extraction procedure is not painful as you will be given anaesthetic which will numb the area. Post-treatment, you may feel some pain and sweeling around the area however this should subside in a week.
Do and don'ts after tooth extraction?
After tooth extraction treatment, we advise that you rest, eat soft food and use a cold compress to reduce the swelling. We recommend you don’t smoke or rinse vigorously.
How long does it take to recover from a tooth extraction?

How to sleep first night after tooth extraction?
On the first night after the tooth extraction, we advise that you sleep with your head elevated to reduce swelling and avoid sleeping on the side the extraction has happened.
