If your tooth is damaged or decayed beyond the point of saving it, you will likely need to have a tooth extraction. A tooth extraction is simply a procedure during which Dr. Nguyen removes the damaged or decayed tooth from your jaw. We understand how stressful and intimidating needing a tooth extraction can be, and we are committed to making you feel at ease and comfortable during your whole experience.
There are a number of reasons you could need a tooth extraction, including:
If you need to have your wisdom teeth removed, you are not alone! Most people need their wisdom teeth removed, and many dentists recommend extracting them before they become a problem. Quite simply, many of us don’t have jaws large enough to accommodate wisdom teeth, and this lack of space can lead to pain, impaction, and even infection.
If your tooth is impacted, it didn’t or is not erupting properly, it can lead to infection of your bone and soft tissues and put undue, damaging stress on the surrounding teeth. Therefore, removing the tooth is crucial to maintaining oral health and wellness.
If you are experiencing any of the symptoms above, call Dr. Nguyen today to schedule an exam.
