Tooth Extraction

Removal of a tooth that cannot be saved, carried out by an experienced oral surgery team under local anaesthetic. The clinic handles straightforward extractions as well as surgical cases such as impacted wisdom teeth and retained roots, with computer-controlled WAND anaesthesia available for comfort. Where a future implant or denture is planned, socket-preservation options can help maintain the bone after the tooth is taken out.

An extraction is the removal of a tooth that is too damaged, decayed, broken or unstable to keep, or that is causing problems such as crowding or recurrent infection. At MM Kaczmarek extractions are performed by a team led by a specialist in oral surgery, which is reassuring for more involved cases. Simple extractions are carried out under local anaesthetic and are often quicker and more comfortable than patients expect; surgical extractions — for example impacted wisdom teeth ('ósemki') or roots left beneath the gum — may involve a small incision and are also done under local anaesthetic, with WAND computer-controlled delivery available for a gentler injection. The price depends on how difficult the tooth is to remove. The team will explain what to expect, including aftercare to support healing and reduce the risk of complications such as a dry socket; a follow-up rinse-and-review appointment (ASD) is available if needed. Where you are likely to want an implant or denture later, the clinic can discuss socket preservation at the time of extraction to help maintain the bone in that area, which can make subsequent treatment more straightforward. Wisdom-tooth and surgical cases are assessed individually, often with radiographs or CBCT, so the surgeon can plan around the roots, nerves and sinuses. After any extraction you will be given clear instructions on bleeding, swelling, eating and pain relief.
