Teeth extractions, also known as tooth removal, involve the careful removal of one or more teeth from the mouth. This procedure is typically performed by a qualified dentist or oral surgeon using specialized instruments and techniques to ensure minimal discomfort and optimal results. Teeth extractions may be necessary for various reasons, including severe tooth decay, advanced periodontal disease, impacted wisdom teeth, overcrowding, or to prepare for orthodontic treatment. At Legacy Dental Team, our experienced team is dedicated to providing safe and effective teeth extraction procedures to restore your oral health and alleviate any discomfort or concerns you may have.

When Are Teeth Extractions Needed?

When Are Teeth Extractions Needed?

Teeth extractions may be needed in several situations. If a tooth is severely decayed or damaged and cannot be restored with other dental treatments such as fillings or crowns, extraction may be the best option to prevent further infection or discomfort. Additionally, teeth that are impacted, meaning they are unable to emerge properly through the gums, often require extraction to prevent complications such as pain, infection, or damage to surrounding teeth. Furthermore, wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, may need to be extracted if they are causing pain, crowding, or other oral health issues. Our team at Legacy Dental Team will assess your individual situation and recommend teeth extractions if necessary to ensure the health and integrity of your smile.
