TOOTH EXTRACTIONS
If you have a tooth which has been damaged, or is beyond restoration, the next suggested treatment may be to extract (remove) the tooth. This may be the best option to prevent damage to neighbouring teeth, or deeper issues such as inflamation or infection and subsequent severe dental pain. Our dentists will talk you through the options available to you at any consultation. If you think you might need a tooth extraction please give us a call on 01935 840784 to book in for an appointment or send an email to office@ilchesterdental.co.uk.
WHY ARE TEETH REMOVED?
There are numerous reasons why a tooth may require extraction. From tooth decay, to gum disease; whether an unrestorable tooth, or you suffer with crowding; tooth extraction is a common treatment, with a variety of causes.
If it is decided that tooth extraction may be the best option for you, we will work with you to ensure you are adequately prepared. We’ll check your dental and medical history, to ensure there are no hurdles with regards to medicines or other factors. Most importantly, we will work with you to ensure you rest at ease before, during and even after any extraction. We welcome any and every question – no query is too small, if it gives you the peace of mind we seek for our patients.
