Tooth extraction is nothing to be feared when done by an experienced hand
Our main goal is to preserve your natural teeth and keep them healthy for as long as possible. But, perhaps, you have a tooth that has been severely damaged by trauma or decay or an impacted wisdom tooth that may cause trouble for you later on. If you need an extraction, your dentist will first numb the area to lessen any discomfort.
The wisdom teeth have gained a reputation for creating problems; frequently when these teeth are coming out they do not have enough room in the jaw creating pressure in the rest of the teeth forcing them to move towards the middle creating an overlapping on the teeth. Other problems caused by the wisdom teeth can be gum disease, decay because these teeth are difficult to clean and they may collect bacteria. It is important early diagnosis and removal for one or more wisdom teeth before roots become firmly embedded in the dense adult jaw bone.
