Tooth Extraction

SURGICAL TREATMENTS

The main goal of the dentist is to maintain the existing teeth and to rehabilitate them by therapeutic or prosthetic methods. However, tooth extraction is recommended when it is, radiographically and clinically, established that the performance of the tooth in the chewing function is impossible. In addition, if a tooth is causing disturbance or pain then tooth extraction is also necessary.

Reasons for tooth extraction

  • Extended caries
  • Periodontitis at an advanced stage
  • Acute or chronic pathological conditions of the pulp, in teeth that other possible therapies are not feasible (e.g. apicectomy)
  • Fracture in the middle of the root (after injury)
  • Fracture of the tooth to a point where it prevents its immobilisation
  • Numerous teeth that block the rise of normal teeth
  • In cases where there is no alternative treatment
  • For aesthetic needs
  • Remnant of the root into the jaw

Reasons to extract wisdom teeth

  • In cases of outlier, semi-closed or incised teeth causing intense pain
  • Pericoronaritis
  • Dental or periodontal abscess
  • Injury to the gum or cheek when chewing
  • Orthodontic treatment, which requires the extraction of one or more teeth
  • When pressing the root of the adjacent tooth

Your dentist will give you a local anaesthetic to numb the area before extracting your tooth. However, your dentist might use a strong general anaesthesia in specific cases.
Next, if the tooth is impacted, the dentist will remove the gum and bone tissue covering it. Then the dentist will gently rock the tooth back and forth to free it from the jaw.
However, in some cases, if a tooth is especially hard to remove, the dentist will remove the tooth piece by piece.
