Tooth Extraction – Wisdom Teeth
Jupiter, Florida Dentist, Bernarda Frias
Dental Extractions
Extractions of impacted or problematic wisdom teeth are routinely performed, as are extractions of some permanent teeth to make space for orthodontic treatment.
Tooth Extraction is a procedure in which a tooth or teeth are taken out of the dental cavity for purposes of impacted teeth, infection or for the installation of implants or other dental bridges.
A dental extraction is the removal of a tooth from the mouth.
Extractions are performed for a wide variety of reasons, including tooth decay that has destroyed enough tooth structure to prevent restorations.
REASONS FOR EXTRACTIONS:
- Severe tooth decay or infection
- Extra teeth that are blocking other teeth for coming in
- In preparation for orthodontic treatment (Braces)
- Fractured teeth
- Insufficient space for wisdom teeth
- Receiving radiation to the head and neck may require extraction of teeth in the field of radiation
