Extraction

Tooth extraction refers to the complete removal of one or more teeth from the mouth. This is a procedure that is usually performed by a dental surgeon. Milk teeth may be removed from a child's mouth without intervention from the dentist as they loosen as a matter, of course, to give way to permanent teeth.

Tooth extraction may be necessary for many reasons, including severe damage or decay. One of the most common dental procedures, tooth extraction can eliminate bacteria and improve your overall oral health.

Tooth extraction is a dental procedure during which your tooth is completely removed from its socket. Sometimes, people refer to this as “pulling" a tooth.

This is sometimes necessary due to: Irreparable damage to a tooth below the gum line, such as deep decay or fractures. Impacted wisdom teeth, which haven't erupted normally.
