Why Would You Get A Tooth Extraction?

Why Would You Get A Tooth Extraction?

While getting a tooth removed is not always pleasant, our top Bowling Green doctors may determine a tooth extraction is necessary to restore your healthy smile. Here are some reasons our team may recommend extraction:

Periodontal Disease

Ideally, our team will be able to save help stop tooth decay with deep cleanings, fillings, or root canals with crowns, sometimes the progress of gum disease can make it so a tooth can unfortunately not be saved. If you are experiencing pain when you eat or bleeding gums, schedule an exam and our team can determine if you are experiencing periodontal disease, and if so, how far along it is.

Impacted teeth

Impacted or misaligned teeth are commonly associated with wisdom teeth removal, but the term simply refers to a tooth that has not fully “erupted” from the gums. This doesn’t just happen to wisdom teeth (also called third molars)- your teeth could also be suffering from overcrowding or coming in at a strange angle. Our team at Bowling Green can help identity impacted teeth and recommend a treatment plan. 

Injury/Trauma

A fall, some kind of accident, or something as seemingly simple as biting down too hard can cause a fractured or cracked tooth. It may need to be removed if the damage is beyond a certain point. Pease note: If you have a broken jaw or excessive bleeding, please contact 911!

What are the benefits of Tooth Extractions?

What are the benefits of Tooth Extractions?

Even if you’re in pain, we realize concern over procedure pain may have made you delay getting your tooth extraction At Bowling Green, we will ensure your tooth removal is as painless as possible. On top of that, here are the benefits from tooth extraction:

Pain relief

In many instances, an extraction means relief from tooth pain. Whether it’s from trauma, decay, or something else, you will be free from the pain of the tooth once it is removed.

Protect other teeth

A tooth extraction helps stop damage, decay, and infection from spreading, and even eliminate bacteria. If needed, our doctors will ensure you take an antibiotic to aid this process.

Preventative

A dentist may recommend a tooth extraction before you are even experiencing pain as a precautionary measure, such as when there is not enough space for wisdom teeth to grow in.

Room for a new smile

Pain or infections aren’t the only reason to get a tooth extracted. If you are missing some teeth already and considering implants or dentures, a tooth extraction can make room for your new, stronger smile.

You may need to get one or multiple teeth extracted before getting orthodontic treatment such as braces to repair crooked or misaligned teeth. This step will get you that much closer to a straighter smile.

This “full coverage” restoration can strengthen your tooth and in the hands of an expert can provide a long-lasting esthetic and functional result.

Maintaining consistent dental appointments that include regular dental exams, professional dental cleanings, and x-rays is essential for good oral health.

Bowling Green's Dental Implants are made of titanium and have special coatings that encourage the fusing of human bone. The top of each implant has an internal screw channel so that crowns, bridges, and or dentures can be screwed in place.
