Extraction

Dental Extraction in Springfield

Although we will use every measure to prevent tooth loss, there are still some occasions when a tooth needs to be removed.

​A tooth may need to be extracted if the following occurs:

  • Severe tooth decay
  • Infection or abscess
  • Orthodontic correction
  • Malpositioned teeth
  • Fractured teeth or roots
  • Impacted teeth

Dr. Sai Kiran may suggest extracting a tooth after careful examination with accompanying x-ray. We use the x-ray to understand the shape and position of the tooth and surrounding bone.
