Tooth extraction is usually the last option; sometimes, it’s necessary for realizing a healthy smile. Typically, tooth extraction is recommended only if it cannot be salvaged. This might include a severely chipped tooth, a broken or fractured tooth, severe dental decay within the tooth, or the tooth’s nerve has died. In any of these instances, tooth extraction is the best option.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Most people may need to have their wisdom teeth pulled out because there isn’t sufficient room for them in your mouth.

Even when the wisdom teeth are not causing any distress, extractions are a proactive way to prevent more severe problems later.
Multiple Tooth Extractions
In some instances, multiple teeth need to be extracted at the same time. This may be due to several reasons such as extensive cavities, trauma, heredity, or overcrowding. Orthodontic treatments will also need the removal of a few teeth to help in the alignment process.
