Assessment

Aftercare
We give you clear written and verbal advice on healing, pain relief and what to avoid for the first 24 hours.
Frequently asked questions
Will it hurt?
You shouldn't feel pain during the extraction itself — only some pressure. Mild soreness afterwards is normal and easily managed with paracetamol or ibuprofen.
How long does healing take?
The socket usually heals over within 1–2 weeks; full bone healing takes a few months.
Do I need to replace the tooth?
Not always — but for visible teeth or teeth needed for chewing, we'll talk you through bridge or denture options.
