Dental Extraction
Dental extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. This procedure is performed for a variety of reasons, such as severe tooth decay, infection, overcrowding, or trauma. Extractions can be simple (for visible teeth) or surgical (for impacted or broken teeth), depending on the complexity of the case.
Purpose of Dental Extraction
The primary purpose of a dental extraction is to maintain or restore oral health by addressing problematic teeth that cannot be saved through other treatments. It helps prevent the spread of infection, relieves pain, and creates space for orthodontic treatments when necessary. Dental extractions are also performed to remove wisdom teeth that may cause overcrowding, misalignment, or other complications.
Benefits of Dental Extraction
- Pain Relief: Removing severely decayed or damaged teeth alleviates pain and discomfort.
- Prevention of Complications: Extractions prevent infections or crowding that could affect overall oral health.
- Facilitation of Orthodontic Treatment: Extracting teeth creates the necessary space for straightening and aligning teeth effectively.
- Improved Oral Health: By removing problem teeth, extractions help maintain a healthier, more functional smile.
