What Are Tooth Extractions?
A tooth extraction is a dental procedure to remove a tooth that cannot be preserved or is affecting your oral health. Your dentist will recommend tooth extraction only after a clinical examination and assessment of your dental condition. Tooth extraction may also be recommended as part of an overall treatment plan for certain dental conditions.
When Is a Tooth Extraction Recommended?
Your dentist may recommend tooth extraction if you have:
- Severe tooth decay that cannot be restored
- Advanced periodontal disease affecting the tooth
- Impacted or problematic wisdom teeth
- Overcrowding requiring orthodontic treatment
- Dental infection where extraction is considered an appropriate treatment option
Treatment recommendations are based on your oral health condition and clinical findings.

The tooth is removed using appropriate dental instruments based on the clinical assessment.
