When Is a Tooth Extraction Necessary?
Tooth removal is usually considered a last resort. However, it may be required in the following situations:
Impacted Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom teeth that fail to fully erupt can cause pain, swelling, infection and damage to neighbouring teeth.
Severe Tooth Decay or Infection
If a tooth cannot be saved with a filling, crown or root canal treatment, extraction may be the safest option.
Advanced Gum Disease
Loose teeth caused by periodontal disease may require removal to prevent further infection.
Overcrowding for Orthodontics
Extractions may be necessary before Invisalign or orthodontic treatment to create space.
Simple vs Surgical Tooth Extraction - What is the Difference?
Simple Tooth Extraction
Used when the tooth is visible above the gum line.
- Local anaesthetic
- Tooth gently loosened and removed
- Quick procedure
Surgical / Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Required when:
- Tooth is impacted
- Tooth is broken below the gum line
- Roots are complex
- Tooth is close to important nerves or structures
May involve a small incision and stitches.
In more complex cases, a 3D CBCT scan may be recommended to assess the position of the tooth and surrounding structures for safe and precise treatment.
We will ensure you remain comfortable throughout your dental extraction procedure.

Tooth Extraction in Bromley FAQs
The cost of a tooth extraction depends on whether the procedure is simple or surgical. Simple extractions are generally more straightforward, whereas impacted or wisdom tooth removals may require a more complex approach.
At Shmile Dentist Bromley, we provide clear and transparent pricing before any treatment begins. You will receive a full explanation of the recommended procedure and associated costs, so there are no surprises.
Avoid brushing the extraction site for the first 24 hours to allow for proper healing. After that, you can gently brush your teeth, being careful to avoid the extraction site.
At Shmiel Dentist Bromley we carry our extraction under local anaesthetic, and you can usually drive afterwards.
However, if sedation is used, you should not drive and will need someone to accompany you home. Our team will advise you clearly based on your treatment.
Yes, mild swelling is normal, particularly after surgical or wisdom tooth extractions. Swelling typically peaks within 48 hours and then gradually settles.
Applying a cold compress to the outside of the cheek and following your aftercare instructions can help reduce discomfort.
If swelling worsens significantly or is accompanied by severe pain or fever, you should contact us for advice.
In many cases, a routine follow-up is not required for simple extractions.
For surgical extractions or more complex cases, we may arrange a review appointment to ensure the area is healing properly. If you have any concerns after treatment, our team is always available to help.
Most patients recover from a simple tooth extraction within a few days. Surgical or wisdom tooth extractions may take around one to two weeks for full healing.
Initial discomfort usually improves within 2–3 days, and we provide clear aftercare guidance to support smooth healing.
