Tooth Extraction
Tooth extraction is a routine dental procedure performed when a tooth is damaged, decayed, infected, or causing overcrowding. Depending on the condition of the tooth, the procedure can be simple (for visible teeth) or surgical (for impacted or broken teeth).
Extractions are often necessary to prevent infection, relieve pain, and maintain oral health. In some cases, a bone graft may be placed to preserve bone structure, especially if a dental implant is planned as a replacement.
With proper care, healing is quick, and the area can be restored with an implant, bridge, or denture, ensuring a healthy, functional smile.
