Ortovize offers tooth extractions on-site — both simple extractions and surgical removal of impacted or retained teeth — as part of the pre-orthodontic preparation workflow. Having extraction capability in-house is convenient for orthodontic patients who need teeth removed to create space before aligner or brace treatment begins, avoiding the need to coordinate with a separate dental practice. Simple extractions are performed under local anaesthetic and take 15–30 minutes; impacted tooth removals are more involved and may require 30–60 minutes.
About this treatment
Tooth extraction is a routine part of orthodontic treatment preparation for some patients. When the dental arch does not have sufficient space to align all teeth correctly — particularly in cases of significant crowding — strategic removal of one or more teeth (typically upper and lower first premolars) creates the space needed for the remaining teeth to be moved into their ideal positions with aligners or braces.
Simple extraction (1,500 Kč)
Removal of a fully erupted tooth under local anaesthetic. The gum is numbed with a topical gel before the injection. The tooth is loosened and removed with forceps in a controlled rocking motion. Total chair time is usually 15–30 minutes. Post-operative discomfort resolves within 24–48 hours with over-the-counter analgesics.
