Frequently Asked Questions About Tooth Extraction in Auckland
A tooth extraction is a procedure to remove a tooth that is severely damaged, decayed, infected, or causing crowding problems. At Sandringham Dental, we perform tooth extractions for patients across Auckland to relieve pain and protect long-term oral health.
Tooth extraction is usually recommended when a tooth cannot be saved through fillings, crowns, or root canal treatment. Common reasons include severe decay, a spreading infection, an impacted wisdom tooth, or overcrowding that is affecting your bite and alignment.
Most patients experience little to no pain during the procedure. We apply a local anaesthetic before starting, which numbs the area completely. You may feel some pressure but the process is designed to be as comfortable as possible. Any soreness after the extraction is normal and usually settles within a few days.
A simple tooth extraction typically takes 20 to 40 minutes from start to finish, including time for the anaesthetic to take effect. More complex cases such as impacted or wisdom teeth may take longer. Your dentist will give you a clear time estimate during your consultation.
Most patients recover within 3 to 5 days after a simple extraction. Wisdom tooth or surgical extractions can take 1 to 2 weeks to heal fully. We provide detailed aftercare instructions before you leave so you know exactly how to care for the area and avoid complications.
The cost of tooth extraction in Auckland varies depending on the complexity of the procedure. A simple removal is generally more affordable than a surgical or wisdom tooth extraction. Contact Sandringham Dental for an accurate quote or book a consultation for a full assessment.
