A tooth is extracted from its dental alveolus or socket during a dental operation called a tooth extraction. The person who pulls teeth is often an oral surgeon. However, general dentists and periodontists also do tooth extraction procedures as part of their primary areas of dental practice. Our dentists will conduct a thorough examination of your mouth, gums, and teeth before performing a tooth extraction. Though keeping your teeth is ideal, if this is not possible, we make sure the tooth extraction procedure is as painless as possible. This happens when dental decay gets into the pulp, which is found in the middle of the tooth. The germs produced by the decay may spread disease by infiltrating the pulp. A tooth is referred to as impacted when tissue is preventing it from coming out or when the gums have not fully erupted. This often happens when wisdom teeth are present. Your dentist can suggest extraction to prevent the impacted tooth from damaging the teeth next to it. The risk of infection and crowding may be decreased by removing an impacted tooth.
