Reasons Why Teeth Need to Be Extracted
We will never ask you to commit to a tooth extraction without first making sure that you understand why it needs to be performed. Rest assured that we will only suggest this procedure after ruling out any treatments that could be used to save the tooth. Common reasons for tooth extraction include:
- A tooth that’s too damaged or weak to support a crown.
- An advanced infection caused by severe decay.
- Teeth that are too overcrowded for a successful orthodontic treatment
- Teeth that have become trapped under the gums.
Wisdom Teeth Extractions
The wisdom teeth typically come in between the ages of 16 and 25. It’s common to have four wisdom teeth, but there are individuals with less than that. While some people are able to keep their wisdom teeth, it may be necessary to have them removed if they become impacted or cause serious oral pain.
Our team can help you determine whether you truly require a wisdom tooth extraction. We can remove your wisdom teeth in-house, but in certain cases, it may be necessary for us to refer you to a separate specialist.
