Reasons for Tooth Extractions

A tooth has a cavity that is too large to be repaired with a filling or crown.
The enamel is broken to the point where it cannot support a restoration.
A serious infection, such as advanced gum disease, has weakened the bone supporting the tooth.
A baby tooth is blocking the path of an incoming adult tooth.
More room is needed in the mouth for either dentures or orthodontic treatment.

After an extraction, it is normal to experience some soreness around the treatment site for a few days. In less than a week, however, a patient should be able to resume their usual diet and daily activities.
