There are lots of reasons for why you may need a tooth extraction. When the tooth and/or root is no longer stable enough, it must be removed. Keeping it in can lead to a lot of pain. This means that you may end up causing yourself a lot of health problems in the future. You could end up with an abscess, gum disease, and a whole lot more pain. The moment you have problems with a tooth, you need to make an appointment with a dentist. The tooth may have some rot. If caught early enough, a cavity can be filled with resin or even silver. From there, the tooth is strong enough to stay in the mouth. If the rot has overtaken the tooth, though, it may have to be removed. If the tooth is causing overcrowding, a tooth extraction may also be in order. For example, if you have a tooth that has shifted and is pushing the other teeth so they become crooked, it will have to be removed to avoid damaging all of the other teeth in your mouth. A dentist will be able to tell you whether this is in order or if braces would be better to handle the problem. In the event that you really do need a tooth extraction, you need to think about the overall appearance of your mouth afterwards. If it’s a third molar/wisdom tooth, you never have to worry about replacing it because it was extra anyways. However, if it’s one of the teeth in the front of your mouth, you may want to replace it for aesthetic purposes. A tooth extraction may also leave you short of the teeth you need to chew some of your favorite food. If you have a molar removed, you may have problems chewing steak and other items. This means that you need to talk to your dentist about a dental implant to replace the one that was removed. These can be just as stable as real teeth – and sometimes even more stable. You can’t see it as a dentist removing a tooth that you need. You have to look at a tooth extraction as something necessary in order to help you with your oral hygiene and your oral health. A rotten tooth can lead to bad breath. As the tooth rots, it’s only going to allow food and other things into the gum, which can make its way into the bloodstream. Once the dentist removes the tooth, you can prevent further problems and start working on a solution. The sooner you catch problems, the less chance you have of a tooth being extracted. Even if it does have to be extracted, though, it’s not the end of the world.
