Tooth Extraction & Wisdom Teeth Removal in Sector 31, Gurugram
A tooth extraction means removing a tooth that can no longer be saved or that is causing harm to your bite, gums, or neighbouring teeth. Wisdom teeth, the last molars at the back of the jaw, often need special attention because they frequently do not have enough room to grow in properly.
Who typically needs this treatment
You may need an extraction if you have a tooth that is severely decayed, fractured beyond repair, loosened by advanced gum disease, or crowding your other teeth. Wisdom teeth are commonly removed when they are impacted (stuck under the gum or bone), growing at an awkward angle, repeatedly getting infected, or causing pain and swelling. Not every wisdom tooth needs to come out. Many that are healthy and well positioned can simply be watched over time.
What happens at your visit
First visit: examination and planning
We start by discussing your symptoms and medical history, examining the tooth and surrounding gum, and taking an X-ray to understand the position of the root or, for wisdom teeth, how it sits relative to nearby nerves and teeth. This tells us whether it is a straightforward extraction or a more involved surgical one, and lets us plan the safest approach for you.
Second visit: the extraction
The area is numbed with local anaesthesia so the procedure is as comfortable as possible. A simple extraction involves gently loosening and lifting the tooth out. A surgical extraction, more common for impacted wisdom teeth, may involve a small gum opening or dividing the tooth into sections for easier removal. Either way, we keep you informed throughout and the appointment is usually completed in one sitting.
Follow-up, if needed
For most simple extractions, no follow-up is required unless you have concerns. Surgical extractions or stitches may need a short review visit to check healing and remove sutures if non-dissolving ones were used.
What changes the cost from case to case
Extraction cases vary quite a bit, and cost reflects that. Factors include whether the tooth is a simple or surgical extraction, how deeply impacted a wisdom tooth is, whether stitches are needed, and any additional care such as infection control before the procedure. Because of this, we do not quote a fixed figure without an examination. Our price list page has the clinic's starting prices, and we will always confirm your exact estimate before treatment begins.
Aftercare that matters
- Bite gently on the gauze we provide for the first hour to help a clot form.
- Avoid rinsing, spitting forcefully, smoking, or using a straw for at least 24 hours.
- Stick to soft, cool or lukewarm foods for the first day or two.
- Take any prescribed medication as directed, even if you feel fine.
- Gently rinse with warm salt water from the day after, avoiding the extraction site directly.
- Contact us if you notice heavy bleeding, worsening pain, fever, or swelling after a few days.
Why a trusted local clinic matters
Extractions, especially wisdom teeth, benefit from careful assessment and a steady hand, since nerves, sinuses, and neighbouring teeth are all close by. Choosing a clinic in your own neighbourhood in Sector 31 also makes follow-up visits and any post-procedure concerns easier to manage without long travel, which matters if you are feeling sore or unwell.

Frequently asked questions
Is tooth extraction painful?
The area is fully numbed with local anaesthesia before we begin, so you should not feel pain during the procedure. Some pressure or a dull sensation is normal. Mild soreness afterward is managed with the aftercare instructions and medication we give you.
Do all wisdom teeth need to be removed?
No. A wisdom tooth that is healthy, properly positioned, and not causing problems can often be left alone and simply monitored. Removal is usually recommended when it is impacted, infected, decayed, or damaging the tooth next to it.
How long does recovery take?
A simple extraction usually feels much better within two to three days. Wisdom tooth removal, especially if surgical, can take about a week for the main discomfort to settle, with full healing of the gum over several weeks.
Can I eat normally after the procedure?
Not immediately. You will need soft, cool to lukewarm foods for the first day or two, avoiding the extraction site while chewing. We will give you specific guidance based on your case before you leave.
How much will my extraction cost?
It depends on the tooth involved, whether it is a simple or surgical extraction, and any additional care needed. Our price list page lists starting prices, and we can give you a clear estimate after an examination.
