Dental Extractions at Kairon Polyclinic – Gentle, Precise & Patient-Centered Care

A dental extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the bone. While preserving your natural teeth is always the priority, there are situations where removing a tooth becomes necessary to protect your oral health. At Kairon Polyclinic, extractions are performed using advanced techniques, ensuring minimal discomfort and a smooth healing process.

 

How Does It Work?

The procedure begins with a thorough examination, often supported by X-rays, to assess the tooth’s position and condition. Local anesthesia (and sedation if required) is administered to ensure you remain comfortable. Depending on the complexity, the extraction may be:

  • Simple Extraction – for visible teeth that can be removed easily with gentle loosening and lifting.
  • Surgical Extraction – for teeth that are broken, impacted, or beneath the gumline, requiring a minor incision.

Our dentists use modern instruments and gentle handling to minimize trauma to the surrounding tissues, ensuring a faster recovery.

Who Needs a Dental Extraction?

Extractions are generally recommended when a tooth is beyond saving or is affecting your overall dental health. Common reasons include:

  • Severe decay that cannot be restored with a filling or crown.
  • Advanced gum disease causing loosening of the tooth.
  • Impacted wisdom teeth causing pain, swelling, or crowding.
  • Broken or fractured teeth that cannot be repaired.
  • Orthodontic reasons to create space for proper alignment.
  • Overcrowding preventing other teeth from aligning correctly.

 

Your dentist will always evaluate whether alternative treatments—such as root canal therapy or crowns—can save the tooth before recommending extraction.

Where Can It Be Used?

Dental extractions are performed in various cases across the mouth:

  • Front teeth – usually for severe trauma or orthodontic needs.
  • Premolars – often extracted to prepare for orthodontic treatment.
  • Molars – removed when heavily decayed or fractured beyond repair.
  • Wisdom teeth – extracted when impacted or causing crowding and pain.

 

Whether it’s a single tooth or multiple extractions, our team ensures the procedure is tailored to your specific dental health goals.
