Have you been told recently that you need to have a tooth extracted? If so, it\u2019s certainly been for a good reason. The removal of teeth is hardly something that dental professionals take lightly. If they have the ability to save your natural teeth, they do so. However, there are many instances where teeth are so damaged that they can\u2019t be kept with good confidence. To learn the five most common reasons for tooth extractions in Lincoln<\/a>, keep reading!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Severe Tooth Decay<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When severe levels of tooth decay develop, they break through the thick outer layer of enamel and reach the center where the pulp lies. The bacteria that caused the decay can then reach this vulnerable layer of the tooth and trigger an infection. If root canal therapy cannot treat the infection, an extraction may be the only way to prevent it from spreading to other teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Major Gum Disease<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Gum disease affects far more areas of the mouth than people realize. Not only does it break down the tissue that covers the roots of teeth, but it also affects the periodontal ligaments and the alveolar bone, two areas responsible for keeping teeth in place. If these areas break down, a symptom commonly associated with moderate to severe periodontitis (or the stage of gum disease that follows gingivitis), teeth often need to be removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impacted Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In some cases, teeth can erupt underneath existing teeth, causing them to become impacted. This issue is most common for wisdom teeth, but can occur with any tooth. As a precaution, periodontists typically recommend removing it to avoid damage to neighboring teeth. Not only can this reduce the risk of an infection developing, but it can help avoid overcrowding. Periodontists use digital technologies like X-rays to confirm the location of teeth and make recommendations from there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Treatment for Overcrowding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While it is uncommon, there are situations where a patient needs to have teeth removed so they can make room for orthodontic treatments like braces. If there is not enough space available for teeth to be straightened, removal may be the best option going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bad Fall or Sporting Injury<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are many circumstances in which a tooth can be badly injured due to blunt force trauma. While it can occur as a result of a bad fall or car accident, physical injuries to teeth most typically occur while playing contact sports like football, basketball, baseball, boxing, hockey, or another activity where the risk of impact is high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tooth extractions in Lincoln are always considered to be a last resort. That means if treatment is recommended to you, it\u2019s important to take it seriously to protect your long-term oral health. If you have a bad toothache that simply won\u2019t go away, get in touch with a periodontist today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
