Why Might You Need a Tooth Extraction?

There are several reasons why a tooth extraction may be recommended:

1. Severe Tooth Decay: When a tooth is extensively decayed and can’t be restored with a filling or crown, extraction may be necessary to prevent further infection.
2. Advanced Gum Disease: In cases of advanced periodontal disease, where teeth have become loose and jeopardize surrounding tissues, extraction can be a critical step in preserving your oral health.
3. Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, can often become impacted or cause overcrowding in the mouth. Extraction may be advised to prevent discomfort and complications.
4. Orthodontic Treatment: Sometimes, tooth extraction is part of an orthodontic treatment plan to achieve proper alignment and create space for other teeth.
