What’s Tooth Extraction?
Dental extractions are often needed if a tooth cannot be saved. Damaged and infected teeth sometimes need to be extracted if they cannot be preserved. Our dentists in Dover, NJ, try to preserve teeth in any way possible, but in some situations, an extraction is necessary. Extractions are a common dental procedure, and they are done for a variety of reasons.
Why Do People Need Extractions?
In most cases, our dentists can treat a damaged or infected tooth. There are several reasons that an extraction is needed. First, extractions are often done if the teeth are crowding. If there isn’t enough space in between your teeth, you may experience alignment issues. To help with this, an extraction can create additional space. Wisdom teeth sometimes need to be extracted. Extractions are sometimes needed before someone gets braces too. If you have a dental abscess, the tooth may need to be extracted. When the tooth root and tissue are infected, a root canal is recommended. If a root canal cannot be done, an extraction may be needed.
