When is a tooth extracted?

A tooth extraction is a fairly common procedure in dentistry. A tooth may need to be extracted for a variety of reasons. The most common reasons are:

  • The tooth is unrestorable through tooth decay, trauma or periodontal disease.
  • Wisdom teeth may need extracting if they are impacted (stuck and unable to grow normally into the mouth) and therefore may cause recurrent infections in the mouth.
  • In orthodontics to help create space for the other teeth to be moved into straighter positions.

Tooth extractions can be done in a single appointment, with a follow up appointment for more complex cases. Our dentist will be able to advise you on the best options for your situation.

What Our Patients Say

Fara Farooq
I had a great experience with Zaynab. She was very professional, friendly and welcoming throughout my appointment. She explained everything clearly as she went along, making sure I understood each step. She also gave me really good advice and helpful tips on how to look after my teeth and gums. I felt comfortable and well cared for throughout. Highly recommend her service!
Andrew Watts
I was made to feel very welcome from the moment I arrived by the friendly reception team. I found the dentist to also be very friendly and knowledgeable, keeping me updated with all the possible options for my treatment. I was made to feel comfortable at all times while in the dentist chair with care taken to avoid any pain, and also update me with what was taking place. Overall I was very satisfied with the outcome of the treatment received and will definitely be returning again in future.

I got my braces done yesterday with Dr.Luis and there was some wire that needed some flattening. i wrote a request to the dental team and Dr.Ajay was able to schedule me for a quick check in the afternoon. my problem was solved and i was out in 5mins.
Anup B
Amazing experience
Mark O
I had a great experience with Smile Rooms. Aidan and all the team were excellent throughout the Invisalign process and I am pleased with the results!
Janet Tourle
When I first came to the Smile Rooms I was petrified but the smile that I was greeted with by the reception staff went along way to calming me down. Dr. Mo came to greet me and I immediately felt at ease, then after checking my teeth he advised that I needed 3 Crowns, fear went up again, but Dr Mo is so patient that I left knowing I would be in safe hands. Have just had my last Crowns fitted by Dr Mo and his nurse Daniella, all the way through all of my treatments I was kept informed about what was happening. Dr. Mo I can't thank you enough for restoring my faith in dentists, to all the staff thank you for your smiles.
George
Easy to book with the friendly team. Efficient appointments. Very happy with the care offered and received.
OMEEZY
Very Very satisfied with my results. Dr Mo assessed my teeth and gave me an accurate and clear description of what to expect and met my needs after I explained. Very Polite, talented and I’d highly recommend to anybody else considering composure bonding! Big thank you to Natasha also
A R
Dr Mo was so lovely, he managed to get my sculpting appt done within 20 minutes, I’ve been debating whether or not to get bonding and was so unsure for so long but after a conversation with him he agreed that all I required was sculpting on my own teeth. I really appreciate his honesty. Would really recommend Smile Rooms!!
Gary Miller
Absolutely Amazing. I’ve currently had periodontal treatment done by Asier. He is brilliant. After two treatment sessions, I feel that I have My teeth back. I couldn’t be more grateful. All the staff at Smilerooms are wonderful . I am now about to have Composite bonding done. So watch this space for another review.

I recently had composite bonding and whitening treatment with Pritesh and Shannon. The service was excellent throughout and I am really impressed with the results!

Jess from the reception team is very helpful and understanding. Zaynab from the dental team is very skilled and always making sure you are comfortable. Every single visit has been a pleasure.
Aneesah Ali
Smile Rooms is exceptional at taking care of my teeth. Lauren is amazing at making sure I take care of my dental hygiene and providing thr most informative advice!
Percy Williams
Just had my hygiene appointment at Smile Rooms in Milton Keynes and it was a really good experience from start to finish. Reception were friendly, I was seen on time, and the hygienist was thorough but gentle, explaining what she was doing as she went and giving useful tips without any lecturing. The clinic is clean and modern and the whole thing felt relaxed rather than clinical. My teeth feel brilliant. Highly recommend. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Steve Fanconi
Zaynab and Melody were great today. Very professional. Would recommend this hygienist.
Hannah Harvey
My hygiene clinician was Sadije and she made me feel very comfortable during my whole appointment. Spoke through every step of what she would be doing and why, making sure I was ok throughout and providing advice on best products to use.
Mobeena Shafi
Took my mum here and they were very accommodating
Simon Phillips
Had 3 appointments with Dr Roma Devnani. She did any awesome job of cleaning my very stained teeth, then 2 fillings which she handled very well and then finally whitening. At no point did she over sell treatments which was welcome, she was very consultative, fair and professional. She had a very calming manner which was great as no one likes a visit to the dentist especially me! Will be looking to take both my children to her n future. Best dentist experience I have had.
Alex Carija Perkins
Excellent, 100% recommend. Now my second time at Smile Room MK. Sadije was my hygienist, she is informative, super professional & lovely. Mo was my front of house, he’s a dude & super friendly. Come get your teeth sorted at Smile Room, you won’t be disappointed: )
Charlotte Block
Amazing experience with Dr Mo and Shannon Dr Mo doesn’t push you for any treatment and gives an honest opinion of what you require. I knew after our first meeting I would go ahead as I felt so at ease. I had a 3 hour composite bonding session where I had shaping and 6 composites as well as removal of 3 old composites. Couldn’t be happier with the result. Thank you!
Emily Lewry - Dawson
I had my top 6 teeth composite bonded by Aidan and he was fab. 8 months later and I’ve had no problems. Highly recommend
Jill “JCal” Callear
Great results! In particular, the Implant procedure, completed by Julian and Stephanie, was professional and reassuring throughout. Dr Aidan and the reception staff are great too!
Wasif Abbas
I have been visiting Smile Rooms for a couple of years for my dental hygienist appointments. I have found the service good and the staff friendly. I recently went there for a regular dental check up with Dr Roma, who was exceptional in the appointment both technically and interpersonally. I will highly recommend her. 😊
Ross R
Fab experience from start to finish with my front tooth implant. Dr Julian and his team were wonderful from the initial consultation through to the final check up a year later. Great team!
Ana
I’ve just finished my Invisalign treatment with Dr Aidan to fix an open bite and it’s been a really great experience overall. Straightforward and easy to manage. You do have to stay on top of brushing and care, but I’d still choose Invisalign over braces any day. Being able to take them out briefly and properly clean all your teeth is such a big plus. I’m really happy with the prompt results and the support throughout. Updating my review for another clinician since I can only post once: Lauren is the best hygienist I've had at Smile Rooms since I became a patient in 2023. Couldn't recommend her enough 🫶 She's amazing with sensitive teeth and always leaves them looking spotless. Special thanks to the nurse Stephanie too!

What is General Dentistry?

General Dentistry covers all oral care, ranging from prevention through to treatment of any dental health concerns.

At Milton Keynes, our team are dedicated to long term preventative dental care for the whole family.

Dentistry today has evolved, using the latest, gentlest modern techniques we aim to provide outstanding private dental care at affordable prices.

Treatments such as crowns, veneers, implants count as cosmetic dentistry as they significantly impact the appearance of the tooth.

What is tooth decay?

It is estimated that around 1 in 3 adults in the UK have tooth decay.

Tooth decay is when acids in your mouth dissolve the outer layers of your teeth.

The acids are formed by the bacteria in your mouth combining with small particles of food (particularly carbohydrates found in sugary food and drinks) and saliva to form a sticky film (plaque).

If the plaque is allowed to build up, the acid begins to break down the outer surface of the tooth.

Eventually this can enter and cause damage to the soft matter at the centre of the tooth.

What are the symptoms of tooth decay?

Tooth decay may not show any visible symptoms until it has reached an advanced stage. The symptoms of tooth decay include:

Z

Tooth sensitivity

Z

Bad breath

Z

Brown, black or grey spots appearing on your teeth.

Z

An unpleasant taste in the mouth

How is tooth decay treated?

What is Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment is used to treat infection at the centre of the tooth, treating this is also known as endodontics.

The aim of the treatment is to avoid extracting the tooth, and in most cases is successful in preventing this.

The infection in the tooth is caused by bacteria that live in the mouth and then enter the tooth.

The infection can be caused by damage to the tooth or trauma, such as after a fall or by advanced tooth decay.

What is the procedure for root canal treatment?

When is a tooth extracted?

A tooth extraction is a fairly common procedure in dentistry. A tooth may need to be extracted for a variety of reasons. The most common reasons are:

  • The tooth is unrestorable through tooth decay, trauma or periodontal
    disease.
  • Wisdom teeth may need extracting if they are impacted (stuck and
    unable to grow normally into the mouth) and therefore may cause
    recurrent infections in the mouth.
  • In orthodontics to help create space for the other teeth to be moved
    into straighter positions.

What is a dental filling?

A dental filling is used to restore a tooth damaged by decay to a more normal function and shape.

The process involves removing the decayed tooth material, cleaning the affected area and then filling out the cavity with a dental filling material such as porcelain or a tooth coloured resin (composite).

Amalgam (silver coloured) fillings can be offered; however, by nature they are visible and many people choose to replace these for a more natural looking filling.

The advantage of a dental filling is that it helps prevent further decay, and consequently more complex treatments.
