About Tooth Extraction

Tooth extraction may be recommended when a tooth is severely damaged by decay or trauma beyond repair, for overcrowding before orthodontic treatment, for wisdom teeth causing problems, or for teeth affected by severe gum disease. The goal is always to preserve natural teeth when possible, but sometimes extraction is the best option for oral health.

How it works: Consultation and X-ray examination. Local anaesthetic administration. Gentle loosening of tooth with dental instruments. Careful tooth removal. Wound cleaning and gauze placement. Post-extraction care instructions given.

  • Eliminate severe tooth pain and infection
  • Prevent spread of infection to other teeth
  • Reduce overcrowding for orthodontic treatment

Before recommending extraction, dentists will explore all conservative options. Root canal treatment can save severely infected teeth. Large fillings or crowns might restore badly decayed teeth. For orthodontic cases, alternative treatments like tooth reshaping or different movement techniques might eliminate the need for extraction.
