Tooth & Wisdom Tooth Extraction
in Northeast Brampton
Sometimes a tooth cannot be saved, or it is causing more harm than good. At Gardenbrooke Dental in Northeast Brampton, we remove severely damaged, infected and impacted teeth, including wisdom teeth, with careful numbing and clear aftercare. Same-day emergency extractions are available.
When Is an Extraction Needed?
- A tooth that is severely decayed or broken below the gum line.
- Infection that cannot be treated another way.
- Overcrowding.
- Impacted wisdom teeth that can damage neighbouring teeth or develop cysts if untreated.
About Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom teeth typically appear between ages 17 and 25. Removing them early, before roots are fully developed, usually means an easier recovery.
Benefits
- Relieves pain from damaged, infected or impacted teeth.
- Prevents infection from spreading.
- Allows gum tissue and bone to heal cleanly.
- Relieves crowding and complications from impacted wisdom teeth.
- Clears the way for tooth replacement.
The Process
- Examination and X-rays: we assess tooth position, roots and surrounding bone.
- Local anaesthesia: the site is thoroughly numbed so you feel pressure, not pain.
- Extraction: the tooth is loosened with specialized instruments. Impacted wisdom teeth may need a small incision.
- Aftercare: gauze is placed and you receive written instructions.
Before Your Visit
- Tell us your medical history, medications and allergies.
- Eat a light meal beforehand unless told otherwise.
- Arrange a ride home if you have sedation.
- Bring your insurance details.
After Your Treatment
- Bite gently on gauze to help a clot form.
- Use ice and over-the-counter pain medication. Most patients are comfortable within two to three days.
- To help prevent dry socket, avoid smoking, drinking through straws and vigorous rinsing for 24 to 48 hours.
- Eat soft foods and keep the area clean as directed.
- Call us for heavy bleeding, fever, severe pain after a few days or swelling that increases.
Replacing a Missing Tooth
Gaps allow neighbouring teeth to shift and may lead to bone loss over time. Options include an implant, a fixed bridge or a partial denture, and your dentist will help you choose.
Cost and Insurance
Simple extractions start from $150 and surgical wisdom tooth extraction from $400. We accept most major insurance plans, NIHB and CDCP for eligible patients and explain costs first.
Why Choose Gardenbrooke Dental
- Careful, gentle care from Dr. Tanya Khattra, DDS.
- Same-day emergency extractions available.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will an extraction hurt?
The extraction is performed under local anaesthesia, so you should not feel pain, only pressure. Some soreness is normal and is managed with over-the-counter medication and ice.
What is dry socket and how can I prevent it?
Dry socket is a painful but treatable condition where the blood clot comes loose and exposes bone. To prevent it, avoid smoking, drinking through straws and vigorous rinsing for at least 24 to 48 hours.
Should I replace an extracted tooth?
Usually yes. Gaps allow neighbouring teeth to shift and lead to bone loss over time. Your dentist will recommend an implant, bridge or partial denture.
How much does an extraction cost?
Simple extractions start from $150 and surgical wisdom tooth extraction from $400.
Do you offer same-day extractions?
