Why dental stitches are used
Stitches (sutures) help protect the surgical site after procedures such as extractions, implants, or gum treatment.
- Control bleeding
- Support proper healing
- Reduce infection risk
When should stitches be removed?
Some stitches dissolve naturally. Others need to be removed — usually 7–14 days after treatment.
If stitches stay in too long, they can irritate the gums or trap food. If you’re unsure, it’s best to have them checked.

What patients say
The Dentist is a really good and professional practice. The dentist himself is very friendly, informative and made me feel at ease from the start of my treatment. The assistants were very good and made the experience overall 5 star.
So lovely, got 6 tooth gems - service was great x
I had braces here. Used to drive past and saw this practice. Readily available appointments and they are happy to adjust timing to suit our schedule. Came for a better smile, was recommended teeth straightening, went for it and I am so happy. Had ceramic braces and teeth were straight very quickly in 9 months. Very happy and highly recommend this team and dental practice. Will be coming back for check-ups and other treatments now.
