Difficult Extractions of Teeth

The goal of modern dentistry is to prevent tooth loss. When a tooth cannot be saved, extraction (removal) of the tooth may be the only course of treatment. A tooth that is very decayed or damaged or loose because of gum disease may have to be extracted if not treated by one of our Essex periodontists in time. Some teeth are more difficult to take out than others because of the size, shape, position in the mouth or the shape of their roots, therefore may require specialist help and Highland View Dental surgery / oral surgery in Essex will be recommended. 

Extraction of Impacted Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth (third molars) are the last teeth to come through. They may not erupt, or emerge from the gums until your late teens or early twenties if they erupt at all. Most often, they’re impacted or trapped in the jawbone and gums usually because there’s not enough room for them in your mouth.

If impacted wisdom teeth cause problems like infection, pain or decay, their removal by a Specialist may be recommended. If you’re dealing with toothache or an abscess we recommend you visit an emergency dentist in Essex as soon as possible to relieve pain and prevent further decay or damage.

For those dealing with dental anxiety, we also offer sedation dentistry in Essex allowing you to undergo dental treatment in complete comfort and relaxation.

Sedation, Complete Comfort

Sedation dentistry is unique in that it allows you to fully relax through your treatment even though you are sufficiently conscious to be able to co-operate with the dentist throughout your appointment.

As you are completely at ease and comfortable during your appointment, our team are able to complete more treatment in any one visit than is usual, thereby reducing the number of visits needed to complete your course of treatment.

Our practices are equipped with all necessary monitoring equipment to ensure your safety throughout the procedure. During the entire treatment appointment, you will be closely monitored by our highly trained team of professionals who have extensive experience in this specialised field.

Having been involved with the treatment of nervous patients for many years we know that sedation is the proven way to remove the stress that many people associate with dentistry. Sedation can be offered for the full range of dental procedures. However, should you have any concerns or worries regarding any aspects of your care, please do not hesitate to contact the practice.

How long will it take to recover after having oral surgery in Essex?

Having a tooth extracted often means you need to press pause and prioritise recovery. It’s recommended you rest as much as you can, avoid smoking and alcohol for at least 24 hours and steer clear from strenuous activities and exercise.

Eat soft or liquid foods and try to use the other side of your mouth/your other teeth when you can.

You will be given more information on your recovery during your consultation and after the surgery. This can differ from patient to patient and depends on how many teeth have been extracted.

If the pain continues, don’t hesitate to contact us. We can book you in for a post-surgery assessment to check on your healing.

If you have any concerns about oral surgery in Essex or any of our other treatments, we’re more than happy to answer any of your questions. Please send them to [email protected] and our Essex dentists will get back to you as soon as possible with more information.
