GENERAL TREATMENTSExtractions

Your dentist may recommend an extraction in the following situations

A tooth is too badly damaged from trauma or decay to be repaired.

Advanced infection has damaged a large portion of a tooth and surrounding bone tissue.

The tooth is poorly positioned in the mouth (e.g. where teeth are crowded).

A tooth cannot break through the gum (erupt) as there is no room for it in your mouth.

This procedure will be fully discussed and explained depending on your indidual needs.
