When are Tooth Extractions Necessary?
There are several situations where removing a tooth is the most appropriate path forward for your oral health. Common reasons a tooth may need to be extracted include:
- Severe decay that has progressed too far to be restored with a filling or crown.
- Advanced gum disease that has significantly damaged the bone and tissue supporting the tooth.
- A cracked or broken tooth where the damage extends below the gumline and cannot be repaired
- Overcrowding is preventing proper alignment prior to orthodontic treatment.
- Impacted wisdom teeth that are causing pain, crowding, or heightened risk of infection.
