Tooth Extraction in Haywards Heath
Sometimes removing a tooth is the best way to protect your long-term oral health. Whether due to decay, infection, trauma, preparation for dental implants, or problematic wisdom teeth, tooth extraction can be an important part of your treatment plan.
At The Implant Centre, we carry out extractions with precision, care, and patient comfort in mind. Our experienced team ensures the procedure is as straightforward and gentle as possible, guiding you at every step.
When Might a Tooth Need to Be Removed?
We always aim to preserve natural teeth where possible, but extraction may be necessary if:
A tooth is too damaged by decay or infection to be restored
Gum disease has loosened or destabilised a tooth
A tooth is broken or fractured beyond repair
A tooth needs removing in preparation for dental implants
A retained baby tooth is preventing adult teeth from emerging
Wisdom teeth are impacted, causing pain, infection, or damage to adjacent teeth
What Happens During a Tooth Extraction?
Extractions are performed under local anaesthetic, keeping the area completely numb and completely pain free. For patients who are anxious, or when multiple or more complex extractions are needed (including wisdom teeth), intravenous sedation is available to help you stay relaxed and comfortable.
Our team uses precise techniques and specialist instruments to protect surrounding bone and soft tissue, making the procedure quicker and smoother than many patients expect. Do not believe the ‘horror stories’ people will often speak about, we ensure that treatment is exceptional at The Implant Centre.
Tooth Extraction and Implant Planning
If your extraction is part of a dental implant plan, we begin planning for implant placement from the start. In some cases, an implant can be placed immediately after extraction. When this is not possible, we guide you on the best approach for healing and preparing the site for future treatment.
Temporary Solutions After Extraction
To maintain your smile while healing, temporary options may include:
A temporary tooth placed on the implant (if same-day placement is possible)
An adhesive bridge bonded to adjacent teeth
A temporary denture, crafted for comfort and appearance
