Tooth Extractions at Perfect Teeth Dental

At Perfect Teeth Dental, we always do our best to preserve your natural teeth — because nothing manmade can truly match the strength and function of your own.

However, in some situations, removing a tooth may be the only option. This could be due to severe decay, infection, or a lack of healthy tooth structure or supporting bone. In every case, we carefully assess your condition and only recommend extraction when absolutely necessary.

Before any tooth is removed, we’ll talk through your options for replacing it. Whether it’s an implant, bridge, or denture, we’ll help you choose the right solution to restore your smile — either immediately or after a short healing period of 3 to 6 months, depending on your needs.

What to Expect During a Tooth Extraction

During your appointment, we’ll clearly identify the tooth to be removed and review your dental X-rays with you. Once you’re ready to proceed, the area will be fully numbed using local anaesthetic to ensure a pain-free experience.

We won’t begin until you’re completely comfortable. You may feel gentle pressure as the tooth is loosened and carefully removed — but no sharp pain.

Our team is here to support you every step of the way, from the procedure itself to aftercare and long-term restoration options.

I was originally referred to Dr Ahmed for an upgrade on my bite – from one that cushions the teeth to one that will inhibit the grinding – and ended up getting veneers as well, something I have been thinking about doing for 10 years! Upon meeting Dr. Ahmed, I instantly liked her energy and the confident way she spoke and found I had complete trust in her and her ability. It was apparent that she liked her work and I have found that people who like what they do, do a great job. She certainly did not let me down.

As a young woman, I had beautiful, straight, white teeth. Over the years, this change and I hated the way my front teeth looked – chipped, broken, filled and brownish! I never did a full smile in photographs. The first thing I notice about people are their teeth and thought this must be reciprocal - later finding out it was not! My perception of how I look was different from others - they didn’t seem to notice my terrible teeth.

After discussing with Dr. Ahmed veneers and the process involved with treatment, I was seriously thinking about going ahead and made an appointment to begin the treatment. Later in the day, I spoke with my husband and daughter and was surprised that they both thought it was about time since I have been talking about my teeth for so long! The treatment for veneers and having a new bite fitted was pain free and occurred over several weeks with a total of three visits. When Dr Ahmed asked me what outcome I was hoping for – I said I just wanted my teeth to look better and not broken or chipped anymore. I cannot be happier with the results. She did a beautiful job and is a true professional. I now have the teeth of a young woman. I cannot stop smiling and love having my photograph taken. I have compliments on how I look, telling me I look healthier. My friends cannot put a finger on why this is, but I know it is my lovely teeth and smile. I find I am also sleeping better which I attribute to the new bite. I am pleased to have found someone who knew what to do to help me protect my bite and teeth.

If you are thinking about having veneers, I would highly recommend seeing Dr. Ahmed at Perfect Teeth, Arnos Grove – and not to wait 10 years like I did! You will be amazed with the results
