Sometimes, despite our best preventive efforts, a tooth may be too damaged, infected, or crowded to save. When extraction is the healthiest option, the team at Seaford Dental provides gentle, respectful, and virtually pain-free tooth removal for patients across Seaford, Seaford Rise, Seaford Heights, Maslin Beach, and surrounding southern suburbs.
We understand that the idea of a dental extraction can feel stressful that is why we prioritise your comfort, clarity, and long-term well-being every step of the way.
While we always aim to preserve your natural teeth, extractions may be recommended when:
A tooth is severely decayed or broken below the gum line
Advanced gum disease has compromised tooth support
A tooth is impacted (like wisdom teeth) and causing pain or crowding (See WISDOM TEETH)
Infection persists despite root canal treatment
Orthodontic treatment requires space creation
We never extract a tooth unless it’s truly in your best interest and we will always explain why, what to expect, and what comes next (like replacement options).
At Seaford Dental with simple extractions we provide:
Gentle numbing – to minmise discomfort and reduce pain
Careful, controlled removal – using modern techniques to minimise trauma
Clear aftercare instructions – to support healing and prevent complications like dry socket
For complex cases (e.g., impacted teeth or medical concerns), we offer sedation options and can arrange treatment in-chair or at a local hospital whichever makes you most comfortable.
Costs depend on whether the extraction is simple (fully erupted tooth) or surgical (impacted or broken). As a HCF preferred provider, we help you access your maximum rebate.
Costs vary depending on complexity and need for bone removal
Simple extraction: Cost ~ $250–$400
Surgical extraction: Cost ~ $450–$650
You will always receive a clear, upfront quote before treatment no surprises, no pressure.
At Seaford Dental, we know trust is earned. That is why we offer:
Same-day emergency appointments for severe pain or infection
Anxiety-friendly care with gentle explanations and sedation options
Local, convenient care no need to travel to the Adelaide CBD
Post-extraction support, including advice on healing and future tooth replacement (if desired)
If you are in pain, have a loose or damaged tooth, or were advised you need an extraction, let the caring team at Seaford Dental help. We are here to make a necessary procedure feel calm, safe, and supported.
