ORAL SURGERY
TOOTH EXTRACTION
Tooth extraction is removing a tooth from its socket in the jaw bone and it is sometimes emergency. If a tooth has been damaged by decay or broken, we at Edgemont dentist, will try to fix it with a filling, crown or other treatments if it is possible. However, sometimes there is just too much damage for the tooth to be restored and that is why dentist will need to extract the tooth.
What causes the need for tooth extraction?
- To remove unwanted wisdom teeth
- For orthodontic treatments (braces)
- Because the tooth is fractured and is not restorable
- Because the tooth is decayed , infected or abscessed and is not restorable
- Because the tooth is very loose due to gum disease
At Edgemont Dentist dental clinic we offer oral sedation for tooth extraction to make the experience as comfortable and relaxing as possible.
