Gentle, Holistic Tooth Removal You Can Trust
Knowing you need a tooth extraction can stir up fear and tension, especially for those who may experience dental anxiety. At Optimal Dental Health, we’re here to change that narrative, not just with skilled professionals and state-of-the-art tools, but with empathy, understanding, and a commitment to whole-body wellness.
We don’t see tooth removal as a routine procedure, it’s an important step in your overall health. That’s why we take the time to approach it with care, precision, and a focus on your comfort. From consultation to aftercare, our goal is to make the experience as calm, supportive, and holistic as possible.
A Gentle Approach with a Healing Focus
At our holistic dental practice in London, tooth removal is never about pulling or ‘yanking’. Instead, it’s a careful, refined process designed to minimise trauma and support natural healing. We use advanced, minimally invasive techniques that help preserve the surrounding bone and tissue, making your recovery smoother and more comfortable.
We Understand Nervous Patients
If you’re someone who feels anxious, even just thinking about the dentist, you are not alone. In fact, we specialise in caring for nervous and sensitive patients. It’s one of the things our team is most proud of.
We take extra time to listen to your concerns, explain what to expect, and make sure you never feel rushed or pressured. You’re in control, always. Our practice environment is intentionally calm, quiet, and welcoming. From the lighting to the aromatherapy scents we use, everything is designed to ease tension and foster trust.
Natural Remedies for a Calmer Experience
For those who need a little extra support before their treatment, we offer a range of natural and homeopathic remedies that gently ease anxiety without the side effects of conventional sedatives. From herbal tinctures and emergency spray from Ainsworths, to calming essential oil aromas, we personalise your care to meet your unique needs.
We believe in working with your body, not against it. These natural solutions help regulate your nervous system, reduce physical tension, and foster a sense of calm from the inside out. This isn’t just about comfort during the appointment, it’s about creating a healing experience that respects your whole self.
Preventing Problems & Ozone Therapy
At Optimal Dental Health, we believe that an extraction should never compromise your future wellbeing. That’s why we take every possible step to ensure the area heals cleanly, completely, and in harmony with the rest of your body.
One of the biggest concerns after a tooth is removed is the potential development of cavitations, hidden pockets of unhealed or poorly healed bone in the jaw. These areas, often missed in conventional dentistry, can harbor bacteria and become sources of inflammation, fatigue, or even unexplained illness over time.
To prevent this, we go beyond basic cleaning. As part of our holistic aftercare, we incorporate a powerful yet natural tool known as Ozone Therapy.
What Is Ozone Therapy?
Ozone therapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses medical-grade ozone gas (O₃), a highly active form of oxygen, to disinfect, reduce inflammation, and support healing at a cellular level. While ozone is best known for its role in the Earth’s atmosphere, in a medical setting it has impressive antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties.
When applied to the site of a tooth extraction, ozone helps eliminate harmful microbes that could interfere with healing. But it doesn’t stop there. Ozone also improves blood flow to the area, stimulates your body’s natural immune response, and encourages faster, healthier tissue regeneration. In other words, it creates the ideal environment for your body to heal itself, just as nature intended.
Why We Use Ozone Therapy After Tooth Removal
After we gently and carefully extract a tooth, we use ozone to thoroughly cleanse the socket and surrounding tissue. This significantly reduces the risk of infection and helps prevent cavitations from forming in the first place.
In holistic dentistry, this is a vital step. By being proactive now, we help protect your future health and reduce the likelihood of needing further interventions later on.
Ozone therapy is offered as a complimentary part of your tooth removal care. We don’t see it as an add-on or luxury, it’s simply the right thing to do for our patients.
Optional Use Of Piezoelectric Devices
In some cases, piezoelectric devices can be added to enhance how a medical tool or device works. Our dentists at Optimal Dental Health can talk you through how they work.
While they aren’t always necessary, using them can offer extra benefits, especially when comfort, safety, or precision matters most.
Our piezoelectric tools use tiny vibrations to gently loosen the tooth from the surrounding tissues. This helps protect the nearby bone and reduces the need for pulling or force, making the procedure smoother and more comfortable for you.
Benefits of Piezoelectric Devices
At Optimal Dental Health, we use the Woodpecker Piezo Surgery Unit. Studies have shown that piezoelectric surgery can promote faster bone healing. It does this by encouraging the body to release natural substances that support bone growth and repair. This method can also reduce inflammation, which helps create a healthier environment for healing.
Patients who have extractions using piezoelectric devices often feel less pain and swelling afterward. This means they may need fewer pain medications and can get back to their normal routine sooner.
Piezoelectric instruments are very precise, they can carefully cut through hard tissue like bone while avoiding soft tissues like gums and nerves. This helps protect the surrounding areas and may lower the risk of complications during surgery.
It allows for gentler tooth removal and supports faster, more comfortable healing, especially helpful for people with more complex cases or those looking for an easier recovery.
