Oral Surgery

Oral surgery care with time to listen, careful planning and support for anxious patients.
Dr Oliver Turner, Joint Principal Dentist at The Treatment Centre

Your care starts with a conversation

Before any treatment, we take time to listen. Your consultation is a chance to explain what has been happening, ask questions and understand your options without feeling rushed. We will discuss the benefits, risks, likely recovery and costs, then agree a treatment plan tailored to you.

We can assess

  • Wisdom teeth and difficult extractions
  • Retained roots
  • Broken or unrestorable teeth
  • Complex medical or dental circumstances
  • Second opinions and referrals from other dentists
X-rays or further imaging may be recommended to plan care safely. If a hospital or specialist service would be more appropriate, we will explain this and arrange the right referral.

Feeling nervous about treatment?

It is very common to feel anxious about an extraction. You will never be judged or rushed. We can work at a calm pace, explain each stage, agree a stop signal and pause whenever you need. If you would benefit from extra support, sedation may be considered after a separate assessment. We will talk through what is suitable for your health, the planned procedure and your individual needs.

Common questions

Will an extraction hurt?

Local anaesthetic is used to numb the area. You may notice pressure, but you should not feel sharp pain. Tell us at any point if you are uncomfortable.

Can I have sedation?

Intravenous sedation may be an option for suitable patients after a separate assessment. We will explain the benefits, limitations and arrangements before anything is booked.

How long does recovery take?

Recovery varies with the tooth, the procedure and your health. We will give you personalised written aftercare and explain when to contact us.

How much will it cost?

Fees depend on the assessment and complexity of treatment. You will receive a clear estimate before treatment. View our current fee guide.
