While it is usually preferable to have all of the natural teeth remain in the mouth, it is sometimes in the best interest of the patient to remove one or more teeth to improve oral health. Sometimes, injury or decay necessitates a tooth’s removal; other times, a tooth may require removal as a part of oral surgery or orthodontic treatment. In other cases, one or more teeth are removed to prevent future oral health complications, such as the removal of wisdom teeth.
Removing a tooth, also known as tooth extraction, is a very common oral surgery treatment. Drs.
