A simple dental extraction is a routine dental procedure where a tooth that is visible in the mouth and easily accessible is removed. This procedure is typically performed on teeth that are fully erupted, not severely damaged, and can be removed with dental forceps without the need for surgical intervention. At London Dental Specialists, our experienced dentists perform simple extractions under local anaesthesia to ensure patient comfort throughout the procedure.
Simple extractions at London Dental Specialists are performed under local anaesthesia, which means you shouldn't feel pain during the procedure. You may experience pressure or pulling sensations, but not sharp pain. After the anaesthesia wears off, mild discomfort and swelling are normal and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Most patients find that simple extractions cause minimal discomfort compared to surgical extractions, which involve more complex techniques for removing impacted or partially erupted teeth.
A simple extraction procedure at London Dental Specialists typically takes between 20-40 minutes per tooth. This includes time for administering local anaesthesia, allowing it to take effect, performing the extraction, and providing immediate post-extraction care. The exact duration may vary depending on the tooth's location, root structure, and individual patient factors. Our dentists work efficiently while prioritising your comfort and safety throughout the procedure.
Recovery from a simple extraction is usually straightforward. Most patients experience initial discomfort for 24-48 hours, which can be managed with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medication. The extraction site typically heals completely within 7-10 days. During this time, blood clot formation and initial tissue healing occur. You can generally return to normal activities the day after the procedure, though you should avoid strenuous exercise for 2-3 days. Our London Dental Specialists team provides comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing.
The main differences between simple and surgical extractions are:
At London Dental Specialists, the cost of a simple extraction typically ranges from £100-£250 per tooth. The exact price depends on several factors including the specific tooth location, complexity of the extraction, and whether additional treatments are required. We provide transparent pricing and detailed treatment plans during your consultation. We also offer various payment options to help make your dental care more affordable. Please contact our clinic directly for the most current pricing information.
Following a simple extraction at London Dental Specialists, proper aftercare is essential for healing. We recommend:
Upper front teeth (incisors) are generally considered the easiest to extract due to their cone-shaped, single roots and accessible position. These teeth typically offer less resistance during extraction. Teeth with multiple roots, such as molars, especially lower molars, tend to be more challenging to remove. The difficulty of extraction also depends on factors like tooth condition, root structure, and bone density. At London Dental Specialists, our experienced dentists are skilled in extracting all types of teeth with minimal discomfort, regardless of their position or complexity.
