Although permanent teeth can last a lifetime, there are a number of reasons why a tooth may need to be removed in adulthood. A lot of the time, this is due to severe tooth damage caused by dental trauma, decay or an infection. Sometimes, patients with dental overcrowding need to remove one or multiple teeth in order to prepare for braces or orthodontics treatments.
No matter the reason, if you need to have a tooth extraction in Clifton Beach, our dentists will make sure that you receive the best care at all times before, during and following your procedure. After the procedure is performed, we can also discuss restorative treatment options available to you for replacing your lost tooth.
At Clifton Family Dental, our dentists offer in-chair wisdom tooth extractions. If you are concerned about your wisdom teeth or suspect they may be impacted, book an appointment right away and we will assess your situation.
Some of the common impacted wisdom tooth symptoms are:
Impacted wisdom tooth signs should never be ignored as the infection can quickly worsen and lead to other more serious complications that require emergency tooth removal. Contact us for more information about wisdom tooth extractions.
At Clifton Family Dental, we are committed to making every patient’s visit as comfortable and relaxing as possible. We understand that some patients experience a great deal of nervousness, anxiety or phobia in regard to their dental surgery such as extractions, so do not hesitate to let us know if there is anything we can do to make your visit more comfortable.
If a dentist has advised you need a tooth extraction due to damage, decay or any other health condition, do not wait to book your appointment for the procedure. Delaying it will prolong any symptoms such as pain or discomfort and can be detrimental to your health as your condition may worsen.

We understand that some patients experience dental anxiety and phobia, especially when anticipating getting in-chair treatments such as tooth extraction. Clifton Family Dental is committed to making every patient’s visit as comfortable and relaxing as possible. Our dentists take a compassionate approach to patient care and mild sedation option.
Tooth removal procedures are generally not painful for patients as sedation is used. The dentist will check with the patient to ensure the tooth, gums and surrounding area is fully numb before proceeding.
After the procedure, the patient may feel some pain or discomfort as the sedation wears off, however, this can be managed with painkillers and medications as advised by your dentist.
After tooth extraction, it is normal for patients to experience some symptoms such as bleeding, swelling, pain or discomfort. Your dentist will provide you with after-care advice to manage these symptoms and aid your recovery.
