What Is A Tooth Extraction?

A tooth extraction is when a tooth is removed from its socket in the bone. Extractions are typically performed when a tooth is too damaged or decayed to be repaired with other treatments, such as fillings or crowns.

A tooth extraction is sometimes a necessary step in achieving a beautiful and healthy smile.

Why Would I Need a Tooth Extraction?

Once your permanent teeth are grown in, there may be some instances where a tooth (or teeth) may need to be extracted. These cases need to be properly diagnosed by a professional dentist and all alternatives should be discussed when considering tooth extraction. Reasons for tooth extraction may vary, but often include one or more of the following:

  • Preparation for Orthodontic or Cosmetic Treatment
  • Bone loss
  • Infection or Risk of Infection
  • Advanced Periodontal Disease
  • Advanced Decay
