Tooth Extraction Procedures in Durham Region​

During your visit to Durham East Dental, our dentist may determine that you require a tooth to be removed for any number of reasons. This may be due to severe decay, periodontal disease or because of the tooth being severely chipped or broken. Another reason for a tooth extraction would be if we have determined that the tooth is poorly positioned in your mouth, which can cause further issues down the road.

One of the main reasons why dentists recommend wisdom teeth removal is because it can lead to severe pain, discomfort and even change the alignment of your other teeth. Wisdom teeth try to grow into a crowded mouth – which leads to them pushing the other teeth forward. For someone who has had orthodontic treatment, it can be a serious problem.

As the individual nears their teenage years, the dentist will have x-rays done to see how the wisdom teeth are coming along. In many cases, wisdom teeth come in at an angle, which can be painful and discomforting. With the help of modern day x-rays, a dentist can plan for a wisdom teeth procedure before the tooth has come out of the gums.
