Tooth Extraction
Tooth Extraction is a dental procedure in which a tooth is removed from its socket in the jaw. It is usually performed when a tooth is severely decayed, damaged, infected, or causing crowding in the mouth. Extractions can be simple, involving visible teeth, or surgical, for teeth that are broken or impacted. The procedure helps prevent further oral health problems, relieve pain, and prepare the mouth for orthodontic treatment or dental implants. Proper aftercare is essential to promote healing and avoid complications such as infection or dry socket.
