In short
When does a tooth need to be extracted?
A tooth is extracted when disease, trauma or dental crowding make removal the right course of action; the priority at the office of Dr. Angela Berkovich, DMD is to try and save the tooth whenever possible. Molars and wisdom teeth are commonly removed because of pain, potential infection and crowding, and people in orthodontic treatment sometimes have teeth extracted for extra space.
