Tooth Removal

Tooth Removal Treatment
While tooth extraction is not usually the first option for treating dental disorders, sometimes a tooth may need to be removed.
Some of the reasons why a tooth may need to be extracted include
- Significant Decay or Damage to the Tooth
- Gum Disease
- To Improve Appearance, such as with /orthodontic Treatment
- Extensive Tooth Cracks
- Poor Positioning or Functionality
Tooth extraction can be completed in the Dental chair using local anaesthetic, The procedure will be determined by a patient’s health, age, the location of the tooth and the complexity of the root formation. Your Dentist will discuss the best treatment options for you, and will require an x-ray of the tooth concerned in order to view the root location and formation, and the density of the supporting bone.
Once a tooth has been removed, your Dentist will provide you with the treatment options available for replacing the lost tooth. This may include options such as implants, fixed bridges or dentures.
