Tooth Removal
The removal of teeth from the dental alveolus (socket) in the alveolar bone is called a dental extraction (also known as tooth extraction, exodontia, exodontics, or tooth pulling colloquially). Extractions are done for a number of reasons, but the most common are to remove teeth that have become unrestorable due to tooth decay, periodontal disease, or oral trauma, especially if they are causing pain. When previous conservative therapies have failed, impacted wisdom teeth (teeth that are trapped and unable to develop properly into the mouth) may be removed (cleaning, antibiotics and operculectomy). When teeth are crowded, healthy teeth (usually bicuspids) may be removed to provide room for the remainder of the teeth to be straightened in orthodontics.
A tooth extraction is a painful procedure. However, to alleviate pain, your dentist will usually use local anesthetic during the treatment. In addition, dentists typically offer over-the-counter (OTC) or prescription pain medication to assist you manage the discomfort after the treatment.
An removed tooth is one that can be seen in the mouth. The tooth is first loosened using a tool known as an elevator. The tooth is then extracted using forceps by the dentist. A dose of anesthetic is given to the tooth, gums, and bone tissue around it before extraction.
If you’re only getting one tooth pulled, the procedure should take no more than 20-40 minutes. Expect to spend a bit longer time at our clinic if you’re having many teeth pulled. Depending on the location of the new tooth, the appointment time will increase by 3-15 minutes.
The greatest therapy for tooth extraction in Abu Dhabi is provided by Swift Medical Centre. If a tooth is cracked or decayed, our dentist will use a filling, crown, or other dental procedure to repair it. However, if the tooth is too badly damaged to be fixed, it may need to be extracted or removed from its socket in the bone. While many teens and adults have their wisdom teeth out, there are additional reasons why adult tooth extraction may be required.
What are wisdom teeth?
Any of the four third molars seen in the permanent dentition (adult teeth) is referred as a wisdom tooth. The last or most posterior teeth in the dental arch are these teeth. It’s possible that some or all of your third molars will never form. There is also the possibility that a person has more than four wisdom teeth. Many people’s wisdom teeth are hidden behind the gums because they have gotten impacted.
How to find wisdom teeth?
Examine your mouth for three permanent molars in each dental quadrant to see if you have wisdom teeth. A radiograph is required to confirm the presence of the tooth if it is impacted beneath the tissue. To determine the angle of eruption and the state of growth of the tooth, a panoramic radiograph is usually the chosen X-ray. In early adulthood, between the ages of 16 and 23, most wisdom teeth can be seen erupting through the gingiva. The consequences of wisdom teeth can sometimes be felt before they can be seen in the mouth. A pressure or dull throbbing sensation in the back of the jaws is common when wisdom teeth erupt. Our dentist can usually tell you how these emerging teeth are doing.
Tooth Extraction in Abu Dhabi
Procedure for tooth extraction
Depending on whether your tooth is visible or affected, you will have a simple or surgical extraction.
Simple extraction
You’ll be given a local anesthetic, which numbs the region around your teeth so that all you feel during the treatment is pressure rather than pain. The dentist next loosens the tooth with an elevator before removing it with forceps.
Extraction via surgery
You’ll probably have both local and intravenous anesthetic, the latter of which will make you feel peaceful and comfortable. Depending on your medical history, you may also be given general anesthesia. You will be completely unconscious during the surgery if you have general anesthesia.

FAQ
Tooth extraction in Abu Dhabi is a procedure where the tooth is completely removed from its sockets. This is done to prevent further damages to the rest of the teeth and gums. If a tooth is too far gone (damaged, infection, periodontal disease etc), then leaving it as it is could be risky to oral health. Our dentist at Swift Medical Center would tell you if and when tooth extraction is necessary.
The tooth extraction procedure at Swift Medical Center happens in a series of steps. The first step is of course an initial consultation. After the initial consultation with our dentist, and the decision for tooth extraction is made, he will select a date for the procedure. On the date of the said procedure, the dentist will apply a local anesthesia to numb the area. The extraction process is simple, and the patient will not feel any pain. The dentist will loosen the tooth from its socket and then use extraction forceps to remove the tooth. The extraction process becomes a bit complex when the tooth is deeply rooted within the gums, has not erupted yet, or is deeply impacted.
