When Does a Child Need A Tooth Extracted?
Sometimes, the extractions of teeth are needed to preserve the general oral condition of your child. Our pediatric dentists can recommend an extraction due to:
- Extensive tooth decay or infection which is not fixable using a filling or a crown.
- Crowding problems, which are normally before orthodontic treatment to create space for proper tooth alignment.
- Trauma or injury that results in an irreparable damage of a tooth.
- Stubborn baby teeth which fail to fall naturally and prevent eruption of permanent teeth.
