Removing teeth is the last recourse for a dentist. A good dentist tries all possible measures to preserve and maintain your teeth because the loss of even a single tooth can have huge impact upon your dental health and appearance. Unfortunately, it is still sometimes necessary to remove a tooth.
Here are some of the reasons teeth may be extracted:
» Decay beyond control
» Advanced gum disease
» Teeth that are mal positioned
» Orthodontic correction
» Teeth Infection
» Fractured or impacted teeth
» Possibility of damage to other teeth (e.g. impacted wisdom teeth or teeth with severe periodontal disease)"
