Tooth Removal (or dental extraction) is the process of completely removing a tooth from its socket in the bone. It is generally a final option when a tooth is injured, rotten or placed in such a manner that it is a potential hazard to the rest of the mouth and cannot be salvaged using other restorative measures.
Indications
- Severe Decay or Infection : A tooth has become so badly decayed or fractured that it cannot be restored or reformed into a filling, a crown, or even a root canal, and in most cases, this results in a painful abscess of the root.
- Orthodontics/Overcrowding : To provide the required space so that remaining teeth can be appropriately aligned in orthodontic treatment (braces), or to extract teeth that are impacted (such as wisdom teeth).
- Advanced Periodontal Disease : When the gum disease has caused significant bone loss around the tooth, making it very loose and unsupportable.
Effects
- Pain Relief : Instantly removes the cause of harsh, enduring dental pain and irritation resulting from irreversible contamination or damage.
- Removes Infection and Spreading : Eliminates diseased tissue and the tooth, preventing the spread of harmful bacteria to the surrounding teeth, gums, or even the bloodstream.
- Enhances Oral Health : A clean base for future restorative work, making it available for eventual replacement with alternatives such as implants or braces, and avoiding future complications, including dry socket.
