When should you remove a tooth?

Sometimes it is not possible to save a tooth, the dentist will then recommend you have it extracted.

Reason for removing a tooth generally include:-

Will the Procedure Hurt?

Tooth extraction is done with local anesthesia to numb the part of the mouth being worked on and to avoid unnecessary feeling or discomfort during the extraction process. Soreness or tenderness in the area of the extracted tooth may be felt once the extraction is complete.

In cases involving significant anxiety toward having teeth pulled, Bridgetown Dental provides sedation services so that patients feel as relaxed and at peace as possible while undergoing the procedure, including in most cases inhaled sedation and/or oral sedation. 

Extraction of Severely Damaged Teeth

Your severely damaged tooth might be eligible for some restorative treatment to repair and save it. However, if there isn’t enough healthy tooth material to save in this way, an attempt may not bring predictable, lasting results. When a damaged tooth no longer has the foundation it needs, an extraction can carefully remove the problem and enable you to proceed with replacement plans. Our experienced dentist discusses the possible choices to replace a lost tooth after an extraction to keep your remaining teeth stable, promote proper function, and ensure teeth do not shift.

Tooth Extraction to resolve a Dental Infection

An infection in a tooth can lead to such things as pain, swelling, sensitivity, and many other signs and symptoms of dental problems. In cases of infection the infected tooth can, more often than not, be treated with root canal therapy to clear the infection and maintain the tooth.In situations in which extraction of the tooth is indicated because it cannot predictably be maintained.

If a severely infected tooth is removed it should remove the source of the infection but depending on the infection more treatment might be indicated.If you have facial swelling and a high temperature or if your jaw/mouth hurts you badly with severe pain and difficulty swallowing and or breathing seek emergency professional dental and or medical attention.
