When are Tooth Extractions Necessary?

Our team will always try to save your natural tooth whenever possible, but we may recommend a tooth extraction if we don’t feel we restore it. Here are some examples of when a tooth extraction may be recommended:

  • Decay has damaged a tooth beyond the ability to be repaired with a filling.
  • A tooth is causing you pain.
  • A tooth hasn’t fallen out on its own, causing the permanent one underneath to become trapped below the gumline.
  • Gum disease has advanced, compromising the supportive hard and soft tissues holding a tooth in place.
  • In order for successful orthodontic results to be achieved, one or more teeth need to be removed to make enough room in the mouth to address crowding.
