When is a Tooth Extraction Necessary?
Tooth extractions are required when a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, or causing complications for surrounding teeth. Common reasons for extraction include:
- Wisdom teeth complications – Impacted or misaligned wisdom teeth can cause pain, crowding, and infections.
- Severe tooth decay or infection – When a tooth is beyond repair, removal may be necessary to prevent the spread of infection.
- Gum disease-related damage – Advanced periodontal disease can weaken teeth, making extraction the best option.
- Overcrowding – Some orthodontic treatments require extractions to create space for proper tooth alignment.
- Broken or fractured teeth – Trauma or accidents may require tooth removal if the damage is too severe.
If you’re experiencing tooth pain or discomfort, contact our Adelaide dental clinic for an assessment.
Wisdom Teeth Removal in Adelaide
At Paralowie Dental Service, we have over 17 years of experience in wisdom teeth extractions, helping both teenagers and adults with safe and effective removal.
Why Do Wisdom Teeth Need to Be Removed?
Wisdom teeth are the last molars to emerge, typically appearing between the ages of 17 and 25. While some people have no issues, many experience problems such as:
- Impacted wisdom teeth – Growing sideways or failing to fully emerge.
- Crowding – Pushing against existing teeth, leading to misalignment.
- Pain & swelling – Causing discomfort in the gums and jaw.
- Infection & decay – Difficult to clean properly, leading to cavities or gum disease.
If your wisdom teeth are causing pain or discomfort, early removal can prevent serious complications. Book a consultation today.
General Tooth Removal & Extractions
In some cases, a damaged or infected tooth may need to be removed to protect the surrounding teeth and gums.
Common Reasons for General Tooth Extractions
- Severe decay – When a filling, crown, or root canal is not an option.
- Injury or trauma – If a tooth is broken beyond repair.
- Advanced gum disease – If teeth become loose due to bone loss.
- Orthodontic reasons – If overcrowding affects alignment.
What Happens After a Tooth Extraction?
Once a tooth is removed, we offer several replacement options to maintain your smile and oral function, including:
- Dental implants – A long-term replacement for missing teeth.
- Dental bridges – A fixed prosthetic to restore your smile.
- Dentures – A removable option for multiple missing teeth.
Our dentists will discuss the best treatment plan tailored to your needs.
What to Expect During a Tooth Extraction?
Many patients feel nervous about having a tooth removed, but at Paralowie Dental Service, we ensure a pain-free experience using local anaesthesia and gentle techniques.
Our Extraction Process:
- Examination & X-rays – To assess the condition of your tooth.
- Pain management – Local anaesthesia is used to numb the area.
- Gentle tooth removal – The dentist carefully removes the affected tooth.
- Aftercare instructions – We provide guidance for a smooth recovery.
Most extractions have a quick recovery time, and we provide aftercare support to ensure a smooth healing process.
