Reasons You May Need a Tooth Extraction

localedge • June 23, 2020
It is not totally uncommon for people to need to have a tooth extracted. It some cases, it is a necessary part of dental health. There are quite a few reasons why you may need to see an extraction dentist to remove one of your teeth. Usually, there is a significant reason as to why you need a tooth extracted. Here are a few common reasons why you may need a tooth extraction. 

Impaction

Impaction is when a tooth’s growth pushes directly on another tooth. Usually, this is because of a wisdom tooth. It is best to have these removed before they can cause damage and excruciating pain. If a tooth is impacted, it is more susceptible to infection. 

Tooth Decay

Deposits of tartar and plaque will eat away at your teeth’s enamel. This will make them weak. If it gets worse enough, an infection can happen. Usually, if a tooth is this far gone, it is best to have the tooth extracted.

Gum Disease

If you suffer from periodontal or gum disease, you may have teeth that should be extracted. If you have to have a tooth extracted so you can have a dental bridge or crown put in, this is in the best interest of your remaining teeth. 

Overcrowding

Overcrowding can cause your teeth to become crooked. Sometimes, one specific tooth is at fault. It may be in your best interest to remove the problematic tooth.
