Pulling a Tooth

At Bear Creek Dental, our doctors will do all they can to avoid pulling a patient’s tooth. There are some instances, however, when extraction is necessary. No one wants to hear that they need a tooth removed, after all, were supposed to keep our permanent teeth for a lifetime. Common reasons for tooth extractions include wisdom teeth and overcrowding.


Other reasons for tooth extraction include:



  • Some people have extra teeth that block other teeth from coming in.

  • Sometimes baby teeth don’t fall out in time to allow permanent teeth to come in.

  • People getting braces may need teeth extracted to create room for teeth that are being moved into place.

  • Some teeth may need to be extracted if they have the potential of becoming infected.


 


If you have questions or concerns regarding tooth extraction, please give us a call.
