Why Tooth Extraction May Be Necessary
Our tooth extractions are carried out for several reasons, and our skilled dental professionals always aim to preserve your natural teeth where possible. However, in cases where a tooth cannot be saved, extraction becomes the best course of action.
Common reasons why we recommend tooth extraction include:
- Severe decay or infection that has damaged the tooth beyond repair
- Periodontal (gum) disease affecting the supporting structures of the tooth
- Impacted wisdom teeth that are causing pain or threatening neighbouring teeth
- Orthodontic reasons, such as overcrowding in preparation for braces
- Fractured teeth that cannot be restored with crowns or fillings
At Norwich Dental Care, we ensure that any decision to extract a tooth is made only after thorough examination and discussion. Your comfort, health, and long-term dental outcomes are always our priority.
What to Expect During a Tooth Extraction in Norwich
When you visit us for a tooth extraction in Norwich, our team will begin by taking a detailed medical and dental history and conducting a comprehensive examination to see if the tooth needs to be removed.
If it does, we will then safely extract the tooth under local anesthetic and work to stop the bleeding which often takes around 30 minutes. We will then give you some aftercare advice so you can confidently support your recovery.
