Tooth Extractions

When a Tooth Extraction May Be Necessary

Common Reasons Teeth Need to Be Removed

While dentists aim to preserve natural teeth whenever possible, there are situations where a tooth extraction is the healthiest option. Severe tooth decay, advanced gum disease, dental trauma, or overcrowding can sometimes make removal necessary.

For some patients, tooth extractions may also be recommended to prepare for orthodontic treatment or when wisdom teeth cause pain, infection, or crowding.

At Beattie Family Dental, our team carefully evaluates every situation before recommending an extraction. If removal is necessary, we use modern techniques and gentle care to keep patients comfortable throughout the procedure.

After the extraction, we also provide guidance on replacement options such as dental implants, bridges, or partial dentures to restore function and appearance.
