Surgical Extraction

About Surgical Extraction

Surgical Extraction is a dental procedure used to remove teeth that cannot be easily extracted, such as impacted, broken, or severely damaged teeth. It involves a minor surgical approach to safely access and remove the tooth.

This treatment is commonly recommended for wisdom teeth or teeth that are not fully visible above the gum line. It helps relieve pain, prevent infection, and protect surrounding teeth and tissues.

Performed under local anesthesia, the procedure is safe and controlled, ensuring patient comfort. With proper aftercare, healing is smooth and complications are minimized.
