Why Whitworth patients choose us for tooth extractions

Whitworth patients come to us from Facit, Hallfold and Shawforth for calm, unhurried dentistry. Our team is used to welcoming people from across the Rochdale and Rossendale border, including nervous patients who want a practice that will take things at their pace.

A tooth may need to come out if it is badly broken, severely decayed, loose from gum disease, or causing repeated infections. Your dentist will explain why, and talk through options for filling the gap afterwards if you would like to.

If you are in pain right now, our same-day pain resolution appointment can include an extraction for a clear extra fee.
