Tooth Extraction

Reasons You Might Need a Tooth Extraction:

  • Severe Decay or Trauma: When a tooth is severely decayed or damaged and cannot be repaired with a filling, crown, or root canal, extraction may be necessary to avoid 
    further complications.

  • Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Impacted wisdom teeth that cannot fully emerge or are growing at an incorrect angle may cause pain, infection, or damage to nearby teeth. Removing 
    these teeth can help prevent these issues.

  • Overcrowding: If your teeth are excessively crowded, an extraction may be necessary to create space for proper 
    alignment, especially before orthodontic treatment.

  • Infection: An infection affecting the tooth pulp that cannot be treated with antibiotics or root canal therapy may require 
    extraction to prevent the infection from spreading further.

  • Gum Disease: Severe gum disease can result in loose teeth, and in some cases, tooth extraction may be necessary to safeguard the health of adjacent teeth and gums.
