Tooth Extractions St. Augustine

Protecting Your Smile by Removing Unrestorable Teeth

Tooth extractions are never the desired outcome for dentists and patients. Having to remove one or more teeth means that they are no longer restorable. This can occur for many reasons, but no matter why our team recommends this type of procedure, you can trust that Dr. Lee will ensure the highest level of safety and comfort. Calling our office and letting us know that you have a problem tooth is the first step to determining whether you need restorative care or tooth extraction.

When are Tooth Extractions Necessary?

Dr. Lee may recommend tooth extraction should you experience any of the following:

  • Extensive Decay – Large cavities result in pulpitis and put your healthy teeth at risk.
  • Facial Trauma – Severe damage to one or more teeth results in being unable to save them.
  • Advanced Gum Disease – When advanced periodontitis causes teeth to loosen and bone to deteriorate.
  • Crowded Teeth – When you require orthodontics but lack the necessary space to ensure successful results.
  • Infection – When an abscess forms and root canal therapy is not enough.
