This makes him an all rounder for helping you restore your oral health. IsDental Surgeryand Extraction always the answer? You should know that all dental problems don’t have a solution in tooth extraction, though there are a few that have no choice but a dental surgery. Listed here are some of the cases where usually dental surgery is the only option: Entrapped wisdom teeth: Wisdom teeth can be a painful affair for some. Apart from the pain it causes while it emerges, it might not be aligned or entrapped in the gums or the jaws might not be able to accommodate them. A surgery to put them in place or extract them might be necessary. A broken or damaged tooth, which will need cosmetic dental surgery for aesthetic values. A tooth that is decayed beyond repair and where a root canal will not be of any help. A tooth that has become loose from its socket due to gum recession can be corrected with a bone replacement surgery, in other words, bone grafting. In case the loose bone is beyond repair, it might be required to extract it. Baby Teeth that have not yet fallen out needs to be extracted to give room for the permanent teeth to grow. It might be necessary to extract a tooth or two in the area of ongoing radiation treatment.
