Tooth Extraction
Safe and Controlled Removal for Oral Health Protection
Is a Damaged or Infected Tooth Causing You Severe Pain?
When a tooth is severely decayed, infected, or damaged beyond repair, extraction may be the best solution to protect your oral health and relieve your discomfort. At Allure Clinic, we understand that tooth extraction can feel overwhelming, which is why our experienced dental surgeons use advanced, minimally invasive techniques to ensure your procedure is safe, comfortable, and promotes optimal healing.
Tooth extraction is a common dental procedure performed when a tooth cannot be preserved due to severe decay, infection, trauma, impaction, or overcrowding. Using state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging, precision surgical instruments, and effective pain management protocols, our team at Allure Clinic delivers gentle, controlled tooth removal with minimal discomfort and faster recovery times.
Located in Dubai, Allure Clinic combines expert dental care with a patient-centered approach, ensuring you receive compassionate support throughout your treatment journey.
What Is Tooth Extraction?
Tooth extraction is a dental surgical procedure that involves the careful and controlled removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. The procedure is performed when preserving the tooth is no longer viable or when the tooth poses a risk to your overall oral health.
At Allure Clinic, we prioritize minimally invasive extraction techniques that protect the surrounding bone structure, gum tissue, and adjacent teeth. This approach not only ensures your comfort during the procedure but also promotes faster healing and better outcomes if you plan to replace the extracted tooth with a dental implant, bridge, or denture in the future.
There are two main types of tooth extractions:
- Simple Extraction – Performed on visible teeth above the gum line using specialized instruments. This is typically done under local anesthesia and involves gently loosening and removing the tooth.
- Surgical Extraction – Required for teeth that are broken at the gum line, impacted, or have not fully erupted (such as wisdom teeth). This may involve a small incision in the gum tissue and is performed with precision to minimize trauma to surrounding structures.
Our dental surgeons at Allure Clinic are highly trained in both simple and complex extractions, including impacted wisdom teeth removal, ensuring you receive expert care regardless of your specific needs.
When Is Tooth Extraction Needed?
Tooth extraction may be recommended by our dental specialists at Allure Clinic if you experience any of the following conditions:
- Severe tooth decay or infection – When a cavity has progressed too far and root canal treatment is no longer effective or viable
- Advanced gum disease (periodontitis) – When the supporting bone and tissues around the tooth have deteriorated significantly, causing loosening
- Impacted wisdom teeth – Third molars that are trapped beneath the gum line or growing at incorrect angles, causing pain, infection, or damage to adjacent teeth
- Overcrowding for orthodontic treatment – Removal of one or more teeth to create space for proper teeth alignment with braces or clear aligners
- Tooth fracture beyond repair – Teeth broken due to trauma or injury that cannot be restored with crowns or other restorative treatments
- Dental abscess – Severe infection at the root of the tooth that has not responded to antibiotics or endodontic treatment
- Preparation for dentures – Removal of damaged or non-functional teeth before fitting partial or complete dentures
- Baby teeth that haven’t fallen out – Primary teeth blocking the eruption of permanent teeth
If you’re experiencing persistent tooth pain, swelling, difficulty chewing, or signs of infection, it’s important to seek professional evaluation immediately. At Allure Clinic, our emergency dental services in Dubai ensure you receive prompt diagnosis and treatment to prevent further complications.
The Tooth Extraction Procedure at Allure Clinic
At Allure Clinic, tooth extraction is performed with the utmost care and precision, typically completed in just one comfortable session. The procedure is completely painless, performed under local anesthesia to ensure you remain comfortable throughout.
Before your extraction, our dental surgeons conduct a comprehensive clinical examination and use advanced digital X-rays or 3D CBCT imaging to assess the tooth’s position, root structure, and surrounding bone. This detailed planning allows us to perform the extraction with maximum precision and minimal invasiveness.
During the procedure, effective local anesthesia is administered to numb the area completely. For patients with dental anxiety or those undergoing complex surgical extractions, we offer sedation dentistry options including conscious sedation to help you feel relaxed and at ease.
Using specialized dental instruments and gentle techniques, the tooth is carefully loosened and removed from its socket while protecting the surrounding gum tissue and bone structure. For surgical extractions, a small incision may be made, and in some cases, the tooth may be sectioned into smaller pieces for easier, less traumatic removal.
After removal, the extraction site is thoroughly cleaned, and measures are taken to promote proper blood clot formation, which is essential for healing. Dissolvable stitches may be placed if necessary, and you’ll receive detailed post-operative care instructions to ensure optimal recovery.
Most patients are surprised by how quick and comfortable the procedure is—modern extraction techniques at Allure Clinic prioritize your comfort and minimize postoperative discomfort.

What to Expect After Your Tooth Extraction
Following your tooth extraction at Allure Clinic, proper aftercare is essential for smooth healing and preventing complications such as dry socket or infection.
Immediate Post-Extraction Care:
- Bite on gauze – Keep gentle pressure on the gauze pad placed over the extraction site for 30-45 minutes to help blood clot formation
- Avoid disturbing the clot – Do not rinse vigorously, use straws, smoke, or touch the extraction site for the first 24 hours
- Manage swelling – Apply an ice pack to the outside of your face for 10-15 minutes at a time during the first 24 hours
- Pain management – Take prescribed pain medications or over-the-counter pain relievers as directed
- Rest – Avoid strenuous activities for 24-48 hours to prevent bleeding and promote healing
Dietary Guidelines:
- Stick to soft, cool foods for the first few days (yogurt, smoothies, mashed potatoes, soup)
- Avoid hot, spicy, crunchy, or hard foods that could irritate the extraction site
- Stay hydrated but avoid using straws
- Gradually return to your normal diet as healing progresses
Oral Hygiene:
- Continue brushing and flossing your other teeth, but avoid the extraction site for the first 24 hours
- After 24 hours, gently rinse with warm salt water (1/2 teaspoon salt in a cup of water) 2-3 times daily
- Maintain good oral hygiene to prevent infection
Healing Timeline:
The initial healing period typically takes 7-10 days, during which the extraction site will gradually close and soft tissue will heal. Complete bone healing can take several weeks to a few months, depending on the complexity of the extraction and your individual healing capacity.
