When Tooth Extraction is Necessary ?

Severe tooth decay
Extraction may be needed if the tooth decay is too deep and cannot be treated with a filling or crown.
2.
Infection
An abscessed or infected tooth that does not respond to antibiotics may require extraction.
3.
Poor tooth prognosis
A tooth with a poor long-term prognosis due to fracture, root damage, or advanced periodontal disease may need extraction.

Wisdom tooth impaction
Impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth that cause pain or affect the adjacent teeth often require extraction.

Extraction may be done to create space for orthodontic treatment in a crowded mouth.
Impaction Surgery For Impacted Wisdom Teeth
Impaction surgery is a procedure to remove wisdom teeth that have become impacted or stuck in the jawbone. This surgery is performed by an oral surgeon and involves making an incision in the gums to access the impacted tooth. The tooth is then carefully removed from the jawbone. Impaction surgery helps prevent future complications like infection, damage to nearby teeth, and cysts.
