Extraction

Teeth are extracted for various reasons:
– Caries has reached deep into the tooth
– The infection has destroyed a large part of the tooth or the surrounding bone.
– There is not enough room for all your teeth in the mouth.

Many dentists recommend extracting the impacted teeth that have partially erupted. Bacteria can invade around such a tooth and cause an infection, which can spread to the surrounding bone and develop into a very serious condition. The impacted tooth continues to try to find a way out through the gum tissue even if there is not enough space for it to emerge into its normal position in the barrier. This constant pressure from trying to extract the tooth can damage the roots of the adjacent teeth. Extracting an impacted tooth can prevent infection and damage to the adjacent teeth and bones and prevent pain or other unpleasant symptoms in the future.
