Surgical dentistry covers a range of procedures that go beyond routine dental care, including tooth extractions, wisdom tooth removal, and other minor oral surgical treatments. At Smiles Dental Care, we perform these procedures with precision and care — making sure you feel informed, comfortable, and well supported throughout.
We offer simple and surgical extractions, wisdom tooth removal, and other minor oral surgery. For complex cases requiring a specialist, we will provide a trusted referral.
Extraction is considered when a tooth is too damaged or decayed to save, is causing overcrowding, is impacted (like wisdom teeth), or poses a risk to surrounding teeth and structures.
Recovery varies by procedure. Most patients experience mild swelling and discomfort for a few days. We provide detailed aftercare instructions and are available if you have any concerns during your recovery.
When surgical treatment is needed, you want it done by a skilled, caring team — in a practice you already trust.
Our dentists are experienced in a range of oral surgical procedures and follow strict safety protocols to support a safe and well-managed procedure.
We understand surgery can be daunting. Our team takes time to explain every step, works to ensure you are comfortable before we begin, and checks in with you throughout the procedure.
You'll leave with written aftercare instructions and the confidence of knowing exactly what to expect. We're also just a phone call away if any concerns arise.
Having your surgical procedure at your regular dental practice means your history and records are all in one place — and you're with a team that already knows and cares for you.

New to Smiles Dental Care, or just a little nervous? Here are some
questions our patients ask most often.
Yes, surgical procedures are performed under local anaesthetic — you’ll be awake but completely numb. Sedation options are also available for anxious patients.
Wisdom teeth are usually removed when they are impacted (unable to fully erupt), causing pain or infection, damaging adjacent teeth, or creating hygiene problems. Not all wisdom teeth need removal — we’ll advise based on x-rays.
The initial healing of the gum typically takes 1–2 weeks. Complete bone healing takes longer, but most patients feel comfortable within a few days.
Soft foods like yoghurt, soup, mashed potato, and smoothies are recommended for the first few days. We’ll give you a full list of foods to enjoy and avoid.
Please let us know — we have sedation options available and our team is experienced in supporting anxious patients. We’ll go at your pace and make sure you’re comfortable before we start.
