Tooth Extraction
What is a tooth extraction?
An extraction is the removal of a tooth.
​
Why do I need an extraction?
There are several reasons why a tooth needs to be extracted. If you have:
​
-
A tooth so badly damaged or decayed that it cannot be effectively restored with root canal treatment, crown or filling.
-
The tooth or periodontal (gum) infection has destroyed a large portion of the tooths supporting bone structure.
-
There are too many teeth to fit properly in the mouth, resulting in crowding of the teeth.
-
Orthodontist requested extractions.
-
A baby tooth won't shed normally.
