Surgical extractions in London

Managing complex tooth removals

Pain or crowding often makes wisdom teeth removal necessary. You might feel a dull ache in the back of your jaw or notice your other teeth shifting. These issues usually require more than a simple extraction. You get a full range of oral surgery in London to address these problems, including surgical extractions and multiple teeth removal. Our team follows strict infection prevention protocols to keep you safe. Dr Sodeinde and our specialists use diagnostic imaging to identify the exact cause of your discomfort before we begin.

Specialist planning for complex removals

Choosing the wrong approach for a difficult extraction can lead to avoidable complications. We use specialist-led planning to map every removal precisely before we begin. This diagnosis-first approach means you get the right clinical path for your anatomy.

Cost is a primary concern for most patients. We itemise every fee so you know exactly what you are paying for before treatment starts, keeping the focus on clinical necessity.

Our expertise extends to complex cases, including multiple teeth extraction and the use of platelet-rich plasma therapy to support healing. The specialist periodontist oversees the clinical standards of these procedures at our Primrose Hill practice.

Who needs a surgical removal

Some teeth cannot be removed with a simple pull. We perform a surgical extraction when a tooth is broken at the gum line, impacted, or has curved roots that prevent a standard removal, which is often the case with wisdom teeth that have not fully emerged. If you feel anxious about the process, we address this during your visit. Our team can also discuss bone grafting if the site needs support for a future restoration. You can find details on oral surgery costs in London to help plan your budget. Dr Sodeinde assesses your specific anatomy to determine the safest method for removal.

Your path to tooth removal

Clinical extraction assessment

We begin by examining the tooth and surrounding bone. This visit determines if a standard removal is possible or if you require a surgical extraction. We use this stage to discuss the timeline and any potential complications. Your specific costs and the number of visits required are confirmed here.

Surgical tooth removal

For complex cases, such as the extraction of decayed roots, we use a surgical approach. This involves creating a small flap in the gum to access the tooth. We may section the tooth into smaller pieces to remove it safely. If you feel anxious, we offer sedation for wisdom tooth removal.

Post-operative recovery

Healing begins immediately after the procedure. We provide a detailed oral surgery aftercare guide to help you manage the site at home. Following these steps reduces the risk of infection and supports healing. We monitor your progress to check the area is closing correctly.

Complex oral surgery review

We review the site to check the bone and gums have healed. This is also the time to discuss further needs, including assessment and referral for TMJ surgery or restorative options, before you return to your normal routine.

Clinical precision in oral surgery for surgical extractions

We use 3D imaging technology to plan surgeries and check optimal placement. These procedures are led by Dr Ope Sodeinde, GDC-registered specialist periodontist (GDC No. 104071), whose surgical capabilities include wisdom teeth removal, simple and multiple tooth extractions, and surgical extractions for more complex cases. These procedures often facilitate the placement of dental implants.

Common surgical extraction concerns

What is a surgical extraction?

A surgical extraction is used when a tooth cannot be removed simply. We use this method for teeth that are broken at the gum line, severely curved, or trapped under the bone.

Is wisdom teeth removal a surgical extraction?

Yes. Many wisdom teeth removal cases require a surgical approach if the teeth are impacted or angled poorly. We assess the position of the tooth during your consultation to determine the method needed.

What does the procedure involve?

It is a procedure where we create a small flap in the gum to reach the tooth. We may remove a small amount of bone or section the tooth into pieces to allow for a safer removal.

How much do surgical extractions cost?

Costs vary based on the complexity of the tooth position and the clinical requirements. We give you a specific cost breakdown for your case following an examination with Dr Sodeinde.
