Maintaining and saving your teeth is our priority, but there are cases when a tooth may be beyond repair, and tooth extraction may be the most appropriate solution. To help you feel more relaxed and comfortable during your appointment, we may also offer you a local anaesthetic or sedation if you suffer from dental anxiety.
When your tooth is fully visible and doesn’t require any surgical interference, simple tooth extraction can be done within a single appointment. You may be given a local anaesthetic to relieve any possible discomfort during the treatment. Simple extractions are usually quick.
Sometimes a tooth may be badly broken and not visible above the gum. In this case, a small cut may be required to help the dentist extract your tooth.
It is quite common for wisdom teeth to erupt below the gum, and it can cause issues with other teeth. In some cases, a wisdom tooth may also require removal when it’s severely decayed, injured or puts the front teeth at risk.

“Had tooth out by sedation today the whole process from 1st appointment to extraction today has been 1st classMaking a very nervous patient feel very at ease thank u.”
“Had an extraction of a wisdom tooth recently and was very happy with the process from the extraction itself all the way through to the aftercare. I also have Mr...”Virja as my dentist and have had for a few years a very professional man aided by his also professional staff, I couldn’t be happier knowing I’m in good hands.”
“I was feeling pain in one of my wisdom teeth and I called Kent Smile Studio and was able to get a same day appointment. Milda first performed an x-ray...”and came to the conclusion that this wisdom tooth needs to be removed due to decay. She was able to do this straight after, in the same appointment.I was initially quite nervous about the procedure, but Milda was incredibly reassuring and professional throughout. She explained the process clearly, ensuring I understood each step before proceeding. The extraction itself was much quicker and less painful than I anticipated, thanks to her skill and gentle approach. I was amazed at how smoothly everything went.Milda and Shilpa made me feel comfortable from start to finish, and I left the clinic feeling relieved and well cared for. The aftercare instructions were clear, and the healing process has been smooth. I’m so grateful for her expertise and would highly recommend Milda and Kent Smile Studio to anyone in need of dental care!”
“The staff at Kent Smile Studios are highly professional. I required Route Canal Treatment and Dr Xi Ng after making the diagnosis explained the four options that I had. 1:...”Do nothing. 2: Have Route Cannal Treatment at Kent Smile Studios in Maidstone. 3: See a Specialist. 4: Have the tooth extracted. After careful consideration of the options. I chose Option 2. Dr Xi Ng is a highley qualified professional lady who clearly has demonstrated the professional skills and knowledge that is required to carry out, this complex procedure and her approach and that of her associate, can only be described as both exemplary and above and beyond the call of NHS Dental Duity. In other words. I can not recommend her services highley enough. A five star rateing, is the absolute very minimum that this establishment should be given and what I am advocating heare, is that this rateing is far to low. It should be far higher. Thank You for your professional services, they are very much appreciated.”
“Very good service I would recommend this dentist sin extracted my tooth and was very friendly altogether a very good service.”
“Was seen today by Keiran Mahal for a tooth extraction due to intense ongoing pain. Kieran was friendly and informative throughout. Kept me in the loop with the decision making...”and offered options for me too. Kept me relaxed and calm, despite the amount of pain I was in. Going to the dentist isn’t always the nicest of visits but I came away feeling extremely grateful. Thank you!”
“I felt welcomed, comfortable and confident in the care and expertise I experienced at Kent smile studio Orpington. Anish immediately made me feel at ease, his knowledge and expertise is...”extensive and he expertly extracted an awkward wisdom tooth and Laleh ensured I didn’t feel a thing: sedation was worth every penny! They all looked after me brilliantly and listened to my interests and concerns. I always felt I was in good hands. The receptionist was also lovely and the dental nurse was fantastic too. I hope to never need another tooth out but if I did, I wouldn’t hestitate to trust this team with the task and look forward to chatting to them all again.”
“I have been with SmileMaker for many years and have always been very satisfied. On Maunday Thursday I had a toothache and phoned at about 15.30 hours for an emergency...”appointment on the off chance-not expecting them to be able to help so near to closing for the Eater weekend. However Maxine (the receptionist) suggested I visit them immediately and that someone would see me. I was seen quite quickly and it was ascertained that I had an abscess. I was given antibiotics and an appointment one week later when the tooth was extracted. the extraction was undertaken by Angelo Zavattini supported by Hailey. I have to say that all 3 of those mentioned were and always have been very helpful and sensitive. my normal Dentist at SmileMaker is Amir who shares the values of his colleagues. I would recommend SmileMaker to anyone seeking dental care.thanks to you all. bob”
