Tooth Extraction | Myrtle Dental Clinic

Dentist performing gentle tooth extraction at Myrtle Dental Clinic South Morang

What Are Tooth Extractions?

Tooth extraction is a common dental procedure where a tooth is safely removed from the mouth due to severe decay, infection, damage, or overcrowding. At Myrtle Dental Clinic, our gentle dentists aim to make the process as comfortable and pain-free as possible, while preserving your oral health.

When Is a Tooth Extraction Needed?

You may require an extraction if you are experiencing:

  • Severe tooth decay beyond repair 
  • Broken or fractured teeth 
  • Gum disease affecting tooth stability 
  • Impacted wisdom teeth 
  • Overcrowding before orthodontic treatment 
  • Persistent dental infections 
  • Teeth that cannot be restored 

Our dentists always prioritise saving the natural tooth—but if removal is the safest option, we ensure the process is smooth and comfortable.

Tooth Extraction Process | Myrtle Dental Clinic

Our Tooth Extraction Process at Myrtle Dental Clinic

We follow a gentle, step-by-step approach to ensure your comfort:

1. Comprehensive Examination

We assess your tooth with X-rays to understand its position, roots, and surrounding bone.

2. Local Anaesthesia for a Pain-Free Procedure

Your tooth and surrounding area will be fully numbed so you don’t feel any pain.

3. Gentle Extraction Technique

Whether it’s a simple or surgical extraction, our experienced dentists use modern, minimally invasive techniques to reduce discomfort and swelling.

4. Post-Extraction Care Instructions

We provide detailed after-care guidance to support healing and minimise complications.

5. Options for Tooth Replacement

If needed, we will discuss restorative options such as dental implants, bridges, and dentures.
