At Rowtree Dental Care, our ethos is to protect and save teeth but sometimes this isn’t always possible. Whether it’s a painful wisdom tooth, overcrowding or severe decay, we want patients to know that tooth extractions here in Northampton are only ever done when absolutely necessary – or when it is in the patient’s best interest.
Regardless of the reason, it is never a decision we take lightly.
We get it…the thought of losing a tooth can be quite daunting. But rest assured your comfort and safety are always our top priority.
Having a tooth removed can be a cause for concern but in reality, the thought of extraction is usually far worse than the process itself. To put you at ease, here’s what you can typically expect…
The good news is that patients shouldn’t feel anything other than slight pressure when the tooth is being removed and, in most cases, a simple tooth extraction is completed within a few minutes.

Tooth removal is only recommended when saving the tooth is no longer an option, or (in the case of wisdom teeth) when removing the tooth is better for your oral health and overall well-being. Common reasons include:
No! Our highly skilled team use the latest techniques and technology to ensure a gentle and safe removal. So while you might experience a little pressure as the tooth is pulled, you shouldn’t feel any pain or discomfort.
We support anxious and nervous patients and can administer a light sedation that will keep you awake but put you in a completely relaxed state during the process. Most nervous patients tell us that the process felt quick and easy.
In some cases, it may only take a few minutes but in more complex or advanced cases, it can take longer or indeed be done in several sittings, particularly if a tooth is severely impacted. Either way, we have the skills and the experience to remove teeth gently, safely and smoothly.
