Understanding Tooth Extractions
What's Involved in a Tooth Extraction?
A tooth extraction involves carefully removing a tooth that cannot be saved with routine dental treatment. This is usually considered when a tooth has been badly damaged by decay, infection, trauma, or advanced gum disease.
Although we always aim to preserve natural teeth wherever possible, removing a problem tooth can sometimes be the safest way to stop ongoing pain, control infection, and prevent damage to nearby teeth or supporting tissues.
At Cromer House, tooth extractions are performed under local anaesthetic to fully numb the area. This allows the procedure to be carried out comfortably, limiting pain.
When is Tooth Extraction Necessary?
An extraction may be recommended if you:
-
Have a tooth that is severely weakened by decay or fracture
-
Are dealing with an infection that cannot be resolved with other treatment
-
Have gum disease that has caused significant loosening of a tooth
-
Experience repeated episodes of pain, swelling, or dental infection
-
Need additional space to support planned orthodontic treatment
We will always discuss our findings with you in clear terms, explain why extraction may be the most appropriate option, and explore alternatives where suitable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does having a tooth extraction hurt?
No. Tooth extractions are carried out under local anaesthetic, which numbs the area completely. You may feel pressure, but not pain. Some soreness afterwards is normal and can usually be managed with standard pain relief.
What is the first night after a tooth extraction like?
The first night after a tooth extraction may involve mild discomfort and slight swelling. We recommend resting, avoiding rinsing or spitting, and keeping your head elevated. Any bleeding should be minimal and settle within a few hours.
How long is tooth extraction healing time?
Initial healing usually takes 7–10 days, with full healing of the area taking several weeks. We provide clear aftercare advice to support proper healing and reduce the risk of complications.
What food should I eat after a tooth extraction?
Soft foods are best for the first few days. Suitable options include yoghurt, soup, mashed potato, eggs, and smoothies (without a straw). Avoid hard, crunchy, or very hot foods while the area heals.
What should I soak my dentures in at night?
Dentures should be soaked overnight in clean water or a dentist-recommended denture solution to prevent drying and maintain shape.
Can you extract a tooth that is infected?
Yes. In many cases, extracting an infected tooth is the best way to resolve pain and prevent the infection from spreading. We will assess whether antibiotics are needed before or after the extraction.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a tooth extraction painful?
Tooth extractions are performed using local anaesthetic, which numbs the area being treated. This means you should not feel pain during the procedure, although some pressure or movement is normal. After the anaesthetic wears off, mild soreness can occur and is usually controlled with everyday pain relief.
How long does recovery take after a tooth extraction?
The gum usually begins to heal within the first week, with most people feeling much more comfortable after 7 to 10 days. Deeper healing within the socket continues over the following weeks. We provide tailored aftercare advice to support healing and help prevent complications.
What can I eat after a tooth extraction?
For the first few days, softer foods are easier to manage and less likely to irritate the area. Foods such as yoghurt, soups that are not too hot, mashed vegetables, scrambled eggs, and pasta are suitable. Hard, crunchy, or very hot foods should be avoided until healing is further along.
Should I avoid vaping after having a tooth removed?
Yes. We recommend not vaping for at least 72 hours after a tooth extraction. Vaping can disrupt the healing process by affecting the blood clot in the socket, increasing the risk of dry socket and prolonging discomfort.
Can a tooth still be removed if there is an infection?
Yes. Removing an infected tooth is often the most effective way to resolve pain and prevent the infection from spreading. Depending on the situation, we will assess whether antibiotics are required before or after the extraction to support healing.
