When tooth extraction is needed, trust our caring Gosford team for a comfortable experience with personalised support every step of the way.
While prevention and conservative treatment is our goal, there may be circumstances where a tooth extraction is required. This could include tooth break down beyond repair (including decay, fracture, bruxism wear etc.), dental infection, advanced gum disease, orthodontics or positioning of teeth (such as wisdom teeth).
Where alternatives are possible our friendly team will consult and plan alongside you to make your experience as stress free as possible. If you need to replace the tooth after it is extracted see our dental crowns and bridges and dentures + dental implants to learn about your options.
If you are experiencing a severe dental emergency that might require immediate extraction, please call us right away. While we aim to address all urgent needs promptly, understanding your situation helps us provide the best and quickest care.
We understand that the thought of getting teeth pulled out can be daunting. We make all efforts to make your appointment as comfortable and stress-free as possible and use dental anaesthesia to numb the area prior to starting your treatment.
Wisdom teeth can be daunting and our dental professionals are here to help. Risks posed by wisdom teeth are reviewed by our dentists and a treatment plan is created to suit your personal needs. For safe, comfortable and efficient extraction of impacted wisdom teeth our dentists refer to longstanding local specialists to provide the best quality care for your long term health.
Before recommending extraction, we always check if root canal treatment could be a viable alternative. Saving your natural tooth is often the preferred option if possible, as it maintains your natural bite.
Losing a tooth affects more than just your smile. We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions and discuss the best options for replacing the tooth removed, like implants or bridges, to restore function and appearance.
If you’re concerned about getting a tooth pulled out, rest assured we offer options to manage anxiety. Our qualified Gosford team prioritises your comfort, offering gentle tooth removal and sedation options.
At Albany Dental, we’ll always discuss alternatives first and plan for replacing the tooth removed if needed. Understanding the tooth extraction cost on the Central Coast is important. That’s why we provide clear quotes and discuss payment options before proceeding with any dental removal. Key aftercare tips:
Bite on gauze as directed to manage bleeding.
Apply ice packs externally to reduce swelling.
Stick to soft foods (soup, yoghurt, smoothies).
Avoid smoking and using straws.
Start gentle saltwater rinses after 24 hours.
Take pain relief as recommended.
Take prescribed medication correctly to avoid further complications.
Rest and avoid heavy lifting or exercise initially.
Central Coast patients talk about our caring approach during tooth removal.
Very warm and friendly staff. From the man at the reception, to the dental assistants, and the dentist himself. I was nervous visiting a new dentist after a long time, but they made me feel comfortable. They were helpful, genuine and warm. I’d recommend Albany dental to anyone seeking professional and kind dental service on the central coast.
Can not rate high enough. Have been coming here for a couple of years, and always have the best experience. All the staff are really lovely; they have always been fully informative and transparent with what they need to do, and most importantly if it doesn’t need doing, they don’t. Good dentists are hard to find. Great ones are impossible. Look no further.
The best dentist on the coast. So friendly, comforting and affordable. I had a bad experience at a different dentist’s office that caused me to avoid going until I found the team at Albany, my faith has been restored. Thank you for taking care of my smile 😁
An extremely warm and welcoming dental surgery! All the staff members my client and I met today were so friendly, polite and informative!! We were very impressed! Highly recommend!
I went to Albany because of all their 5 star reviews and I am more than happy to add to them. Excellent service, prompt, professional, friendly, affordable and most importantly, the quality of work was 10/10.
Simple extractions are usually quite quick, often done in 20-40 minutes. If it’s a complex case, like an impacted wisdom tooth requiring surgical dental removal, it might take a bit longer. We’ll always give you an idea beforehand.
We focus on making the procedure gentle and use effective numbing. Afterwards, some soreness is normal as the anaesthetic wears off, but it’s usually well managed with standard pain relief. Following the tooth extraction aftercare helps minimise discomfort during recovery. Let us know if you experience severe pain.
Initial healing, where the gum tissue starts to close, usually takes a few weeks. Complete healing of the bone can take several months. We will monitor your healing during follow-up appointments if necessary.
