Tooth Extractions (including Wisdom Tooth Extractions)

There are many reasons why a tooth may need to be extracted.

Whatever the reason, the dentists here at 3Dental are highly skilled and will ensure the procedure is comfortable and pain-free.

The dentist will use a strong local anaesthetic to completely numb the tooth and the surrounding tissues, in fact, this numbness will last anywhere from 2 hours to 6 hours.

We also offer a general anaesthetic to those patients who are very nervous.

If you are a particularly nervous patient we can also offer you oral sedation or IV sedation.

We can also advise you on the best treatment to replace any missing teeth.

Our most popular option for replacing missing teeth is dental implants, whereby single or multiple teeth can be replaced.

Surgical Extractions

Surgical extractions are done by our oral surgeons. These extractions may be slightly complicated due to various reasons.

For example, teeth with curved roots or teeth buried under the gums may cause complications.

However, these will not be a problem for our fantastic oral surgeons who will keep you pain free and relaxed.

Wisdom Teeth Extractions

Wisdom teeth tend to erupt from the age of 17 to early twenties. Not everyone has all four wisdom teeth and some people may only have 1 or 2 wisdom teeth.

Wisdom teeth can cause problems when erupting through the gums by causing food traps which, in turn, can cause infection and bad breath.

If you require your wisdom teeth to be removed, our oral surgeons can do this in 3Dental.

Testimonials Smile Gallery

Why would I need my wisdom teeth removed?

Wisdom teeth may not have enough space to fully erupt into the mouth as they grow right at the very back where space is limited. This can lead to infections of the gum around a wisdom tooth, or make it difficult to clean leading to decay.

What is IV sedation?

IV sedation is the use of a medication in the back of your hand or arm which relaxes you completely and makes a procedure such as wisdom tooth removal a pleasant experience.

What is an oral surgeon?

An oral surgeon is someone who specialises in removing difficult teeth.

Does my medical insurance cover this?

If you have medical insurance, most policies will contribute towards the cost of wisdom tooth removal. This varies from one company to another, and you would be best contacting them directly to find out if this is the case with your policy.

What is an impacted tooth?

A tooth which has grown at an unusual angle, or has no space to erupt into the mouth is said to be impacted.

Do you also offer wisdom tooth extraction?

Yes, we will examine you and make our recommendations on a case by case basis.

How long does it take to recover from a tooth extraction?

A routine, simple extraction of a single tooth would normally require a painkiller for a day or two afterwards.

More difficult surgical extractions (required when teeth are badly broken or impacted) will result in swelling or bruising which can last 3-5 days. These would also generally require painkillers for a few days afterwards.

Does having a tooth out hurt?

Having a tooth out is totally painless. Modern anaesthetics and techniques make this possible.

During the process you will feel pushing and pressure, but no more than that.

“THE DENTIST!! Dun dun duuunn. Wow. All I can say is that the old misconception of going to the dentist is now well gone. My daughter pointed me in the direction of 3Dental as she is currently in the process of getting braces. Upon my entry to 3Dentals reception, you’re greeted by a spacious, modern and relaxed area. The staff are all extremely friendly and you’re greeted with a smile. My consultation was with Dr Eimear Mooney and all I can say is amazing, her depth of knowledge is inspiring. I was coming in to get my wisdom teeth checked and about pain in my jaw, Dr Mooney was able to fully explain what was happening and why which was truly wonderful. The equipment they have is top of the range and the facility is spotless and ultra sleek and modern. The dental technician Nico was also fantastic and courteous. I felt 100% at ease at all times and just knew I was in safe hands. So to cut to the chase. 3D dental is the dentist that you are looking for and I highly recommend them for any dental work from a check-up to orthodontics. Keep up the great work and THANK YOU”

Ana Miricescu

“I had my young daughter in 3Dental for few different treatments. Paul and Anna were absolutely amazing, most professional, nice and friendly people and I would never hesitate to recommend 3Dental and the staff. Anna turned an awful & painful tooth extraction into a happy, chatty, painless and joyful game. I can never thank Anna & Paul enough for looking after my daughter in such a professional and friendly manner. Every time she was in, she left 3Dental with a smile on her face and was always looking forward to going back. No pain, no fear and most important no more tooth pain!”

Sarah McGauley

“I got my wisdom tooth out today in 3Dental. I was so nervous as I had never got one out before, did not use any sedation either. Dr Robert Weld-Moore greeted me with a smile, made me feel really comfortable, explained everything to me very thorough, sang to me as he numbed me up, had me laughing throughout! When it came to actually extracting the wisdom tooth it literally took him 30 seconds. I didn't even notice it was out until he said ha! I couldn't believe it was that easy! Will definitely be going back, very good experience! Thanks Robert.”

Paul Gilson

“Been a nervous person when it comes to dentist visits I was really struggling when I had to get an extraction done. From the moment I sat down with Dr. Jonathan Deane, I felt at ease straight away from explaining the procedure and keeping me relaxed throughout the treatment it went by in no time, thank you again and I know i won't be dreading my next visit.”

Laura Weldon

“I can’t recommend 3Dental enough. My mother went in yesterday to get two teeth pulled she wanted to be sedated as she was very nervous and she is 78 years old. Can’t tell u how well all the staff looked after her she didn’t feel a thing out for the count took her a while to wake up out of the sedation but there was no hurry as they gave us a room to ourselves so Mam could rest and recover.. through the whole day I must’ve seen all the staff belonged to 3Dental, they were very attentive and their concern for my Mam was excellent can’t thank you all enough she had a great sleep last night and is all good today hope you all have a great Xmas and new year keep up the great work. Laura weldon (Maura Reilly daughter)”

Laura F

“I’ve never had a good experience at any dentist. Because of this I’ve put off getting dental work done and as a result have a lot of things I need to get done. I read the good reviews and finally decided to face my fears and go to 3Dental. Everybody was very nice to me, I was concerned that they would see all the things I need to get done and shame me or belittle me as other dentists have but they were very nice to me and professional and just focused on what the plan would be. I really do have severe anxiety when it comes to going to the dentist and when I showed up for my 2nd appointment to get a tooth pulled I was very anxious and could feel myself wanting to back out but everyone was so nice that I actually had the courage to stay and follow through. The receptionists, assistants, and dentists really did go above and beyond to talk me through my fears and put me at ease, they have a lot of patience as well. I plan on going back to get everything I need done. This place was a game changer for me. I let myself be in pain for years with teeth that needed root canals, or cavities filled and I’m so happy to finally be taking care of it.”

Gerard Curtin

“I can't praise 3Dental enough for their professionalism I had a fear of dentists and hadn't been to the dentist in 6 years. I broke my tooth & was going around for 6 months before I came to 3Dental. The minute I walked through the door I met with very friendly staff. Dr. Joanqui Rinon looked after me. He pulled the tooth & put in an implant. The appointments were always on time & when I had a problem they fitted me in & sorted the problem immediately. I got a price plan & knew how much it was going to cost. No hidden extras. Don't hesitate to call to 3Dental & they will have you smiling going out the door.”

Abbey Stewart

“I'd love to thank Paul and his lovely staff for looking after my brother today he had a dental emergency with a tooth that needed to be extracted . Another dentist did not treat him properly, theu cracked his tooth and gave him an appointment for 1 month. Unacceptable. 3Dental got him an appointment within the hour, showed compassion and minded him from start to finish. Will recommend to everyone from now on. Thanks again!”

Shane Curtin

“Found 3 Dental online and went for an initial consultation after work, they're very accommodating and open late. Found out as suspected I had a lot of work to do - filling, extraction etc. Was surprised how competitive they were on price. Very new and modern dental practice. Pete was my dentist and will be back to him in a couple of weeks again. Convenient to Luas Red Cow which was great. I'd recommend them.”

G B

“I was a ball of nerves earlier this week as I needed a filling extracted and re-filled. I had a bad experience with the original filling with a different dentist a few years ago and have not been able to forget the pain and discomfort. Thankfully the staff at 3 Dental were amazing. They understood I was very nervous and assured me that they would not start work until they were absolutely certain I was completely numb this time. The dental assistant started chatting to me to keep me distracted while waiting for the aesthetic to kick in, and the dentist was so calm and reassuring while working on the tooth. My faith has been restored and I won’t be avoiding the dentist anymore. We also had our young children in for check-ups recently and they came out happy and excited after their adventure. We will definitely be staying with 3 Dental as our new family dentist.”

Natasha Doyle

“As soon as I walked into the doors I felt very welcomed. I was sitting for no longer than five minutes before I was called in to have an Xray and then I was straight in to see the dentist 'Peter' who extracted my wisdom tooth. The receptionist and Peter were so friendly and welcoming. I explained to Peter I was nervous about the extraction but he calmed my nerves and talked me through everything he was doing whilst extracting the tooth. I highly highly recommend 3Dental to anyone. No fuss, no hassle, just a great dentistry practice!”

“Can't recommend 3Dental enough. I had the pleasure of dealing with Dr Paul O'Connell who really knows his stuff. I genuinely thought my teeth were an impossible task and Paul had them pretty much sorted in 6 months! The treatment you receive here is second to none and the best value for money you'll find! With X-Rays performed on the premises, 4 painless tooth extractions, affordable monthly payments, quick easy appointments and an incredible team of staff I can finally look people in the eye and smile without feeling self conscious. Massive thanks once again to Paul and all the staff at 3Dental for changing my life for the better!”

Emma Crimmins

“All the staff are amazing at 3Dental. When I first went to 3Dental I had a major fear of the dentist from bad experiences, the staff were so nice and made sure I was always comfortable to the point where I look forward to coming in. I've had lots of treatments done with them including implants and having my wisdom teeth removed and I've been extremely happy with all the treatments. Dr Andoni and Dr Anna were both extremely pleasant. Even ringing to see how I was after major treatments. Couldn't recommend them enough!”
