From routine extractions to complex surgical removals and wisdom teeth — our experienced specialists make the procedure as comfortable as possible, with clear aftercare guidance throughout.
Types of Extraction
Not all extractions are the same. The approach depends on the tooth's condition, position, and root structure.
For teeth that are visible above the gum line and have a straightforward root structure. The tooth is loosened with an elevator instrument and lifted out with forceps.
For teeth broken below the gum line, impacted teeth, or those with curved/multiple roots that resist simple removal. A small incision is made to access the tooth.
Third molars often erupt improperly — sideways, partially, or not at all — causing pain, infection, and crowding. Removal is a surgical procedure performed under local anaesthesia.
Do I Need an Extraction?
Extraction is always the last resort. We first explore all options to save the natural tooth.
We always prioritise saving your natural tooth. Extraction is only recommended when it's genuinely the best outcome for your long-term oral health.
What to Expect
From the moment you sit down to your recovery at home — here's exactly what happens.
We assess the tooth's position, root structure, and surrounding bone. A dental X-ray gives us the full picture before proceeding.
Local anaesthetic is administered to completely numb the area. You may feel pressure during the procedure — but not pain.
For simple extractions, the tooth is gently loosened and removed. For surgical cases, a small incision is made and the tooth may be removed in sections.
A gauze pad is placed over the socket and you'll be asked to bite firmly to control bleeding and help a clot form.
We provide detailed aftercare instructions and prescribe pain relief and antibiotics if needed.
We discuss your tooth replacement options — implant, bridge, or denture — so you can plan ahead and avoid bone loss.
Dry Socket Warning: If severe pain develops 3–5 days after extraction, contact us immediately. Dry socket is treatable but should not be left unattended.
Special Focus
Third molars cause more dental emergencies than almost any other tooth. Here's what you need to know.
Wisdom teeth typically emerge between ages 17–25. Because modern jaws often lack sufficient space, these teeth frequently become impacted.
Impacted wisdom teeth can cause persistent pain and infection, damage adjacent teeth, and contribute to cyst formation.
At ADS Dental Hospitals, wisdom tooth surgeries are performed under local anaesthesia. Our surgeons use atraumatic techniques to minimise swelling and support smooth recovery.
Recovery from wisdom tooth removal typically involves 2–3 days of mild swelling and soreness, after which most patients resume normal activities.
Pain or pressure at the back of the jaw · Swollen gums · Jaw stiffness · Recurring infection · Crowding or shifting of other teeth
Simple wisdom tooth extraction: 20–30 min. Surgical impacted tooth removal: 45–90 min depending on complexity.
Day 1–2: Swelling peaks. Day 3–4: Swelling reduces. Day 5–7: Most patients return to normal routine.

Avoid hot, hard, spicy, and crunchy foods for the first 48 hours. Soft foods are best during the initial recovery period.
Yes, unless it is a wisdom tooth. Replacing extracted teeth helps prevent bone loss, tooth shifting, and bite changes.
Dry socket occurs when the blood clot protecting the extraction site is dislodged. Avoid straws, spitting, and smoking for 48–72 hours.
Not always. Healthy and properly aligned wisdom teeth may be monitored. Impacted or painful wisdom teeth may require removal.
