Tooth Extraction Procedure
Dr Patricia has performed numerous wisdom tooth extractions. The procedure at Biggleswade Dental Centre is designed to be as comfortable and effective as possible. Here’s what to expect:
- Initial Consultation and X-Ray: Our process begins with a comprehensive assessment of your oral health and an X-ray to assess the tooth and plan the safest extraction approach.
- Numbing & Sedation: If extraction is deemed necessary, we ensure you are fully informed about the process. Local anaesthesia is administered to numb the area and minimise discomfort.
- Tooth Extraction: Once you’re numb, the tooth is gently loosened and removed using precise techniques to minimise discomfort.

Oral Surgery Treatments
Our experienced dental surgeons can perform the following oral surgery treatments in-house
Surgical Tooth Extraction
If a tooth extraction can turn into a surgical one, having it completed by a specialist oral surgeon is a more secure way to ensure smoother, less painful procedure and a quicker recovery.
Wisdom Tooth Removal
Wisdom teeth can be challenging to extract; their positioning and large roots are best handled by an oral surgeon, who can use surgical techniques if necessary during the procedure.
Jaw Trauma
If you’ve experienced jaw trauma, a consultation with an oral surgeon is an absolute must. Unresolved jaw trauma issues can seriously affect your oral and general health.
TMJ Diagnosis
If you are concerned that you may have temporomandibular joint syndrome, book an appointment with our oral surgeon to receive a precise diagnosis and a treatment plan.

Oral surgery is a branch of dentistry that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of various conditions, injuries, and diseases affecting the mouth, jaws, and surrounding facial structures. It encompasses a wide range of surgical procedures aimed at restoring oral health, function, and aesthetics.
Surgical Interventions
Oral surgery encompasses a variety of procedures, including:
– Tooth extractions (simple and surgical)
– Dental implant placement
– Wisdom teeth removal
– Corrective jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery)
– Treatment of facial injuries and trauma
– Removal of cysts, tumours, and other pathologies
– Cleft lip and palate repair
– Jaw joint (TMJ) surgery
There are various situations where oral surgery may be recommended or required to address dental and facial concerns. Some common scenarios where oral surgery becomes necessary include:
Removal of Third Molars
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last set of teeth to erupt in the mouth. If they become impacted (trapped beneath the gum tissue or adjacent teeth) or cause overcrowding, pain, or other issues, surgical removal is often recommended to prevent further complications.
Dental Implant Placement
If you have missing teeth due to decay, injury, or other reasons, oral surgery may be required to place dental implants. Implants serve as artificial tooth roots, providing a secure foundation for restorations like crowns, bridges, or dentures.
Corrective Jaw Surgery
Conditions like severe underbites, overbites, or other jaw misalignments may necessitate orthognathic surgery, also known as corrective jaw surgery. This procedure involves repositioning the upper jaw, lower jaw, or both to improve bite function, facial aesthetics, and in some cases, breathing.
While oral surgeries are generally safe and effective procedures, as with any surgical intervention, there are potential risks and complications that patients should be aware of. Understanding these risks can help you make informed decisions and take necessary precautions.
- Excessive or Prolonged Bleeding
- Bacterial or Viral Infections
- Temporary or Permanent Nerve Damage
- Improper Healing or Bone Alignment
