About tooth extractions
Tooth extractions, while they might sound daunting, are routine dental procedures aimed at restoring oral health and relieving discomfort. Our specialist oral surgeon here at My E20 Dentist, Dr. Ionel Nistor, has many years of experience and extensive training, ensuring you’re in very good hands.
Although always a last resort, removing a tooth may be necessary for some of the following reasons:
- Decay
- Fracture
- Gum disease
- Presence of extra tooth
- Preparation for braces
- Impacted wisdom tooth
What to expect during a tooth extraction
Your dentist will ensure you're comfortable throughout the process, often using local anaesthesia to numb the area. Using specialised tools, they’ll gently remove the problematic tooth, prioritising your comfort and safety.
Once your tooth has been removed, our team will provide you with advice on post-extraction care, which includes simple things like gentle rinsing and avoiding certain foods for a while.
Remember, modern dentistry has made extractions smoother and more efficient than ever, so there's no need to worry. Our team in London’s E20 will guide you through every step, ensuring your smile stays healthy and bright.

Frequently asked questions
Generally, the initial healing period lasts about 1-2 weeks, during which you may experience some discomfort, swelling, and minor bleeding. Most people are able to resume normal activities within a few days of having a tooth extraction. However, complete healing of the extraction site can take several weeks to months. It's important to follow your dentist's advice for optimal healing and to minimise the chance for complications.
Tooth extractions typically don’t pose unusual risks and delaying the removal of a problematic tooth could potentially harm your health. Side effects like nerve damage and infection are rare but possible, so it's important to follow our post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
Pain during a tooth extraction is typically minimised with local anaesthesia, ensuring you feel little to no discomfort during the procedure. Afterward, some discomfort or mild pain may occur, but it can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relief. Your dentist will ensure you're as comfortable as possible throughout the process.
