Tooth Extractions

Careful Removal of a Problematic, Diseased, or Damaged Tooth

What Are Extractions?

An extraction is the complete removal of a tooth. Although extraction is often avoided, in some circumstances, a tooth must be removed for your health or for dental improvement. The most common reasons for extraction include irreversible decay, traumatic damage, disease containment, and overcrowding. Generally speaking, extractions are the recommendation only after other avenues of treatment have been explored.

Benefits of Extractions

Prevent the spread of disease or bacteria.
Combat overcrowding by ill fitting teeth.
Create space for an orthodontic solution for aesthetic improvement.
Remove a tooth which is no longer repairable.
