Extraction FAQs

At Premier Dental, we understand that the idea of a tooth extraction can feel intimidating. Dr. Brown and our team are dedicated to making the process safe, comfortable, and efficient, ensuring your oral health is protected every step of the way.

  • Tooth extractions are sometimes necessary to maintain or improve your oral health. Common reasons include:

    • Severe decay or infection that cannot be repaired with a filling, crown, or other restoration

    • Advanced gum disease that affects the supporting structures of the tooth

    • Impacted or problematic wisdom teeth

    • Orthodontic preparation to create space for teeth alignment

    • Fractured or damaged teeth that cannot be restored
