Gentle tooth extractions at Bath Spa Dentistry
Sometimes a tooth is too damaged or decayed to save, and removing it really is the best way to protect your oral health.
Our dentists take a measured approach to every extraction, explaining each step beforehand so you know exactly what to expect. We’ll also give you a call the following day to see how you’re getting on.
What does a tooth extraction involve?
A tooth extraction is the careful removal of a tooth that can't be saved through a filling, crown, or root canal treatment.
During a tooth removal, your dentist numbs the area fully, and may use digital X-rays beforehand to plan the safest approach, particularly for teeth with more complex roots.
How much does a tooth extraction cost?
The cost of a tooth extraction depends on the tooth involved and how straightforward the procedure is.
Your dentist will confirm the cost of your extraction before any treatment goes ahead, so there are never any surprise fees. For a better idea of what to expect, visit our pricing page, or reach out by phone and our team will talk you through your options.
Your tooth extraction journey at Bath Spa Dentistry
Exam and treatment plan
Your dentist examines the tooth (using X-rays if needed), then talks you through why extraction is recommended and what to expect.

The area is fully numbed with local anaesthetic before your tooth is carefully removed. Your dentist explains each step as they go, so you always know what's happening.
Care that continues
The day after your extraction, we'll call to check how you're getting on. If anything's worrying you before then, support is just a phone call away.

Do I need a tooth extraction?
Extraction is usually a last resort, recommended when a tooth is too damaged by decay or injury to be restored, severely infected, or causing overcrowding that can’t be solved with orthodontics.
Your dentist will talk you through the alternatives first, and only recommend removal when it's genuinely the best option for your oral health.
If you're in sudden pain or think you may need an emergency tooth extraction, get in touch straight away and we'll fit you in as soon as we can.

Tooth extractions from an experienced team in Bath
We know a tooth extraction can feel like a daunting prospect. Our dentists carry out extractions as part of everyday general dentistry, using digital X-ray imaging where needed to show us exactly what’s going on beneath the surface.
We’ll also call you the day after treatment to see how you’re getting on, because how you feel afterwards matters just as much as the treatment itself.
