Surgical Tooth Removal
Surgical Tooth Extraction in Dubai
When a tooth is too damaged or decayed to be removed normally, surgery may be the only solution. Surgical tooth extraction in Dubai at Oris Dental Center is carried out under local anesthesia by experienced oral surgeons. By making a small incision in the gum and carefully removing the tooth, we prevent future infections and restore oral health. With advanced sedation options, modern equipment, and a focus on patient comfort, we make even complex extractions precise and virtually painless.

Why Surgical Extraction
Why Surgical Extraction is Needed
Some teeth simply can’t be removed through routine extraction. In such cases, surgical removal becomes necessary to protect oral health.
- Badly decayed or fractured teeth
- Teeth with multiple or curved roots
- Teeth damaged by trauma
- Infected teeth unresponsive to treatment
- Root canal–treated teeth with brittle roots
Surgical Tooth Extraction Procedure
Examination and Planning
Our dentists examine the affected tooth and gums, supported by digital X-rays to assess bone and root structure.
Anesthesia and Sedation
Local anesthesia ensures a painless experience. For patients with anxiety, Oris offers sedation options, including nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation, or intravenous (IV) sedation. Complex cases may require hospital-based general anesthesia.
Tooth Removal
A small incision in the gum may be made to access the tooth. In difficult cases, the tooth may be sectioned into smaller pieces for easier removal. Once extracted, the socket is disinfected, and graft material may be added to preserve bone. Stitches are placed if needed.
Post-Procedure Care
Gauze is applied to control bleeding and promote clot formation, which is essential for healing. Light bleeding may last up to 24 hours, but most patients resume normal activity in a few days.

It’s a dental surgery performed when a tooth cannot be removed through simple extraction, often due to decay, trauma, or complicated roots.
