What is tooth extraction?

Tooth extraction is a procedure in which a dentist gently removes a tooth that can no longer be saved with conventional treatment — whether due to extensive decay, a fractured root, advanced gum disease or infection. At BioDent Clinic, every extraction is preceded by a clinical examination and, if necessary, an X-ray or 3D CT scan, allowing us to accurately assess the condition of the tooth, root and surrounding bone. This enables us to choose the gentlest technique and prevent complications. We distinguish between simple extraction (of an easily accessible tooth) and surgical extraction (in cases of a fractured root or a less accessible tooth), which requires a more precise approach.

When is tooth extraction necessary?

We recommend extraction if a tooth is so severely damaged by [tooth decay], fractured or loosened due to [gum disease] that it cannot be saved with a filling, crown or other treatment. Extraction may also be necessary for infected teeth when there is a risk of the infection spreading, or for orthodontic reasons when space needs to be created to align the teeth.

Anesthesia and comfort during the procedure

We perform tooth extractions under local anesthesia, so the procedure itself is painless. For anxious patients, we offer additional options to help them relax. Before the procedure, we always explain how long the anesthesia will last and what to expect once it wears off.

Preparation and aftercare

Before the procedure, we recommend eating beforehand, informing us about any medications you take and not smoking on the day of the procedure. After an extraction, it is important not to rinse your mouth vigorously, drink through a straw or smoke during the first 24 hours — this helps prevent so-called dry socket. We recommend cooling the treatment area, eating soft foods and following the doctor’s instructions regarding medication. The space left by the extracted tooth should ideally be restored as soon as possible with an implant, bridge or denture to prevent the surrounding teeth from shifting.

Quality and innovation

  • 3D CT diagnostics – precise assessment of the tooth and bone condition before the procedure
  • Gentle surgical techniques – minimal strain and faster healing
  • Connection to implantology – tooth replacement solutions available in one place

FAQ

Is tooth extraction painful?

Thanks to local anesthesia, the procedure itself is painless. Mild sensitivity after the anesthesia wears off is normal and can usually be managed with standard painkillers.

How long does healing take?

After a simple tooth extraction, healing usually takes 3–7 days. With a surgical extraction, the healing process may take a little longer.

What can I eat after a tooth extraction?

For the first few days, we recommend soft and lukewarm foods. Avoid hard, hot and spicy foods.

 
 
What is “dry socket” and how can it be prevented?

It is a painful complication that occurs when the blood clot does not remain in the tooth socket after extraction. You can help prevent it by not smoking, drinking through a straw or rinsing your mouth vigorously during the first day after the procedure.

Do I need to replace a tooth after extraction?

We recommend it — a missing tooth over the long term can cause the surrounding teeth to shift. We will discuss the available options (dental implant], [dental bridge, denture) during your consultation.

Is extraction always necessary when a tooth hurts?

No, pain can often be treated with other treatments. We recommend extraction only when the tooth cannot be saved.

What are the risks of tooth extraction?

When the instructions are followed, the risks are minimal – mild swelling, sensitivity or minor bleeding, which usually subsides quickly.

How much does tooth extraction cost?

The price depends on the complexity of the case. You can find the current price list here: price list
