When are Tooth Extractions Necessary?
A few common situations that can be resolved via tooth extraction include:
- The tooth in question is so damaged, decayed, or otherwise compromised that a filling or dental restoration won’t suffice.
- A tooth needs to be removed before receiving dentures or to eliminate overcrowding, often before orthodontics.
- A tooth is impacted or blocked from erupting properly.
- Severe gum disease has compromised the tissue surrounding a tooth, making it unstable.
