Surgical Extraction

Surgical Extraction

Some teeth can’t be removed with a gentle pull — they’re impacted, fractured, or hidden beneath the gum. At Kensington Olympia Dental Clinic, we perform surgical extractions safely, precisely and with your comfort as our priority.

What Is a Surgical Extraction?

Unlike a routine extraction, surgical removal involves making a small incision in the gum to access a tooth that’s trapped, broken, or impacted — often wisdom teeth or roots that didn’t erupt fully. It’s a minor surgical procedure done under local anaesthetic.

Why Might You Need One?

• Impacted wisdom teeth
• Broken or severely decayed teeth
• Teeth below the gum line
• Roots that didn’t erupt
• Orthodontic preparation
