Safe & Gentle Tooth Extractions
Some infections or tooth damage may be too severe for restorative care to save. In this instance, you may need a tooth extraction. Walton Family, Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry provides comfortable tooth extractions in Greenwood. Your safety and comfort are our first priorities.
When Is a Tooth Extraction Required?
Dr. Walton might suggest an extraction if the tooth is too badly broken, diseased, or infected to have a root canal or crown. The same is true if a tooth is too badly fractured or shattered to be saved by any dental treatment. The following are some more circumstances where a tooth extraction might be required:
- To create space for an orthodontic treatment
- To improve your bite alignment and chewing skills
- To remove impacted wisdom teeth
- To make room for dentures or bridges
Our goal is to preserve your natural teeth to the greatest extent possible. However, Dr. Walton may advise tooth extraction when necessary to protect your smile and dental health from future issues.
