Frequently Asked Questions
What Are the Reasons To Extract A Tooth?
- Severe Damage. Dentists can not save your tooth due to major damage from decay or injury. In these cases, tooth extraction must be performed to maintain your oral health.
- Impaction. Impaction is a condition in which a tooth isn’t breaking through your gums properly or is stuck in your jawbone. Dentists frequently refer their patients to us for impacted tooth extraction.
- Crowding. If your mouth does not have room for erupting wisdom teeth, or your existing teeth are too crowded together for orthodontia to work properly, dentists may recommend tooth extraction.
- Tooth Infection/Pain. When a severe toothache occurs, it may mean your tooth has become severely infected. A dentist may recommend extraction if root canal therapy or antibiotics don’t help. This can prevent the infection from spreading.
- Gum Disease. If your gums and the tissues surrounding your teeth are infected, the teeth may become loose. In serious cases, an extraction may be needed.
Which Teeth Are Most Commonly Impacted and Extracted?
Wisdom Teeth. Wisdom teeth usually erupt in your late teens or early twenties. If not extracted, they can cause a multitude of dental problems, including growing in crooked, crowding existing teeth out of alignment, or becoming impacted under your gums or in your jawbone. That can cause pain, gum disease, and infections. Canine Teeth. Your canine teeth, also known as cuspids or eyeteeth, help with chewing, keeping surrounding teeth in alignment, and shaping your smile. If they become impacted, it can affect oral function and tooth alignment. Painful cysts can also form if our oral surgeons or dentists do not extract impacted canines.
