Extractions

A dental or tooth extraction (also referred to as exodontias) is the removal of a tooth from the mouth. Extractions are performed for a wide variety of reasons such as:

• Extra teeth which are blocking other teeth from coming in.
• Severe gum disease which may affect the supporting tissues and bone structures of teeth.
• In preparation for orthodontic treatment (braces).
• Fractured teeth.
• Insufficient space for wisdom teeth (impacted third molars)
