Why You May Need a Tooth Extraction

 

If a tooth has been broken or damaged by decay, Dr. Suzanne Haeri, DDS will likely try to fix it with a filling, crown, or other treatment first. However, if there’s too much damage for the tooth to be repaired, it will need to be extracted. Once Dr. Suzanne Haeri, DDS has collected all relevant information from a pre-extraction examination, detailed plans regarding your extraction will be made. 

Sometimes people who have extra teeth that block other teeth from coming in or have baby teeth that don’t fall out in time to allow permanent teeth to come in will need to have teeth extracted. People getting braces may also need teeth extracted to create room for the teeth that are being moved into place. In addition, the most common reason for getting a tooth extracted is when wisdom teeth are impacted. These teeth that often get stuck in the jaw can irritate the gum, causing pain and swelling.
