Common Reasons for Tooth Extractions

• Severe Tooth Decay: When a tooth is too damaged to be restored with a filling or crown.
• Gum Disease: Advanced periodontal disease can loosen teeth, necessitating removal.
• Impacted Teeth: Often seen with wisdom teeth that don't have enough room to emerge properly.
• Overcrowding: To create space for orthodontic treatments like braces or Invisalign.
