Why do I need extraction?
Teeth extractions may be necessary for various reasons, including:
Severe Tooth Decay:
When tooth decay becomes extensive and compromises the structural integrity of a tooth, extraction may be the only viable option to prevent further damage and infection.
Advanced Gum Disease:
Periodontal disease can lead to significant damage to the supporting tissues and bone surrounding the teeth. In cases where the disease has progressed to an advanced stage and caused irreversible damage, extraction may be necessary to preserve oral health.
Impacted Wisdom Teeth:
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, often do not have enough space to erupt properly, leading to impaction against adjacent teeth or the jawbone. Impacted wisdom teeth can cause pain, infection, and damage to surrounding teeth, necessitating extraction.
Orthodontic Treatment:
Sometimes, tooth extraction is part of an orthodontic treatment plan to create space for proper alignment of the remaining teeth. This approach may be necessary to address overcrowding or misalignment issues.
Trauma or Injury:
Teeth that have been severely fractured, cracked, or traumatized due to accidents or injuries may require extraction if they cannot be effectively restored through other dental treatments.
Failed Root Canal Treatment:
In some cases, root canal treatment may fail to resolve infection or adequately restore the tooth's health. In such instances, extraction may be necessary to prevent the spread of infection to neighboring teeth or the surrounding tissues.
Preventive Measures:
In rare cases, preventive extractions may be recommended for individuals at high risk of dental complications, such as those undergoing radiation therapy to the head and neck or preparing for certain types of orthognathic surgery.
