Why a Tooth Extraction May Be Necessary
Every effort is taken to preserve your natural teeth when you have a good dentist. However, sometimes, a tooth must be pulled to protect your health or your oral health. A few reasons the dentist may need to extract a tooth include:
- Severe decay beyond what can be repaired
- Broken or fractured tooth
- Issues with gum disease or bone loss
- You have a baby tooth that did not come out on its own
- Teeth crowding that threatens your oral health
How We Handle Tooth Extractions
Evaluation
Your initial evaluation will include an x-ray and visual assessment to determine if the tooth needs to be extracted. The dentist will discuss any and all options before making the decision to extract the tooth.
Preparation
You will be made comfortable with local anesthetics to ensure you don’t feel anything during the procedure. Sedation dentistry is also an option for some patients.
Extraction
The dentist uses small tools to remove the affected tooth from the jaw. The procedure typically only takes a few minutes, and you will be given guidelines to follow during your recovery.
