When Is a Tooth Extraction Necessary? | Doctor Explains

Описание: If you have been told you may need a tooth extraction, it is natural to feel nervous or unsure. In this video, Dr. Paul Connolly explains tooth extractions, when they are necessary, and what patients can expect during treatment at Bedford Center for Prosthodontics.

Tooth extractions may be recommended when a tooth is severely damaged, infected, fractured, or cannot be saved with restorative treatment. In some cases, extractions are also part of a larger treatment plan, such as preparing for dental implants or full arch restorations.
