Sometimes the only option that can secure your dental health is tooth extraction. Smile Makers of Georgia provides gentle, comfortable treatment for whatever extraction you need-wisdom teeth or any other extraction because of damage or overcrowding. We take you step by step so that you stay informed, confident, and relaxed.
Reasons for Tooth Extractions
Reasons for tooth extractions in Alpharetta may include:
Severe decay that cannot be repaired with a filling or crown.
Complete evulsion of the tooth in advanced gum disease.
Wisdom teeth have become painful, impacted, and harmful to other teeth.
Overcrowding from orthodontic treatment.
Trauma or fracture of the tooth beyond repair.
Tooth extraction is the final option. One should try saving a natural tooth as best as possible, but there are cases when extraction should be done, and this usually becomes the last option of treatment.
