Who it suits

When removal may be the safest option

Pain alone does not mean a tooth must come out. Examination and X-rays help compare extraction with root canal treatment or restoration on prognosis, complexity and long-term value.

A tooth damaged beyond reliable repair
Persistent infection with a poor prognosis
A severely cracked tooth
Advanced gum support loss
A problematic buried or complex tooth
A planned removal before replacement treatment

How treatment works

From first visit to finished smile

Diagnose

We assess the tooth and surrounding structures and discuss realistic alternatives, including doing nothing where safe.

Prepare

The procedure, anaesthetic, likely complexity, aftercare and replacement implications are explained before consent.

Remove

Local anaesthetic is used and comfort is checked throughout. Surgical access is used only where the tooth requires it.

Recover

You leave with written aftercare, warning signs and a review plan where healing or replacement needs monitoring.

Why choose us

A decision made around the tooth, not the diary

Save where sensible

Removal is recommended only after the prospects and costs of keeping the tooth have been considered.

Plan beyond the extraction

We discuss whether the gap can remain, or whether a bridge, denture or implant deserves consideration.

Nervousness taken seriously

Stop signals, extra time and sedation assessment are available rather than expecting you to push through fear.

Common questions

Asked at almost every consultation

How much does tooth extraction cost in Twickenham?

A simple extraction starts from £250 and a surgical extraction from £450. Examination and X-rays establish the complexity and complete fee before treatment.

Does having a tooth removed hurt?

Local anaesthetic should prevent sharp pain, although pressure and movement are normal. Tell us immediately if you feel discomfort so more anaesthetic can be given.

How long does recovery take?

Initial soreness and swelling commonly improve over several days. Surgical extractions can take longer. Follow the written instructions and contact us if pain or swelling worsens rather than settles.

Do I need to replace the missing tooth?

Not always. It depends on the position, bite, neighbouring teeth and your priorities. If replacement is useful, the options can include a bridge, denture or implant after healing is assessed.
