Tooth Extractions

What Is a Tooth Extraction?

A tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the bone. This procedure is typically performed when a tooth is too damaged to be repaired with a filling or crown, or in cases of severe infection, overcrowding, or impacted wisdom teeth.

At Le Dentiste, we understand that tooth extractions can be a daunting prospect, but our experienced team is here to ensure the process is as smooth and comfortable as possible. Whether due to decay, injury, or overcrowding, a tooth extraction might be necessary to protect your overall dental health.

When is tooth extraction recommended?

Healthcare providers prefer to save natural teeth whenever possible. But sometimes, other restorative methods — such as dental fillings or dental crowns — aren’t enough. If your tooth has been badly damaged past the point of repair, then removal may be necessary. Your dentist may recommend tooth extraction if you have:

Severe tooth decay (cavities).
A fractured tooth.
An impacted tooth.
Crowded teeth.
Severe gum disease.
Tooth luxation or other dental injuries.

If you have severe tooth pain or other dental issues requiring extraction, trust Le Dentiste for expert care.
