What are the treatment options for tooth extraction?
Tooth extraction refers to the removal of teeth from the alveolar bone using different tools. The main reason for tooth extraction includes severe tooth decay, periodontal disease, tooth fracture and the removal of primary teeth due to the need to remove natural teeth for orthodontic purposes. It is generally divided into non-surgical tooth extraction and surgical tooth extraction.
Non-surgical tooth extraction is suitable for teeth with normal growth, and dentists only use general dental tools, such as tooth forceps and removing the tooth. The patient only receives local anesthesia, and the process of tooth extraction will not damage other teeth or nearby tissues. However, if the tooth decay is severe or the tooth is misaligned or very close to the nerve line, surgical tooth extraction may be necessary.
Wisdom tooth impaction is another condition that requires surgical removal of teeth, and the reasons for extracting wisdom teeth can be divided into two types: preventive and therapeutic removal. When the dental arch does not have enough space to accommodate the wisdom teeth, which prevents them from growing, or when the angle of the wisdom teeth is tilted during the growth period, there will be impaction problems, leading to swelling and pain of the dental pulp, and inflammationof gum around wisdom tooth (pericoronitis) and tooth lesions, such as: Cysts are classified as therapeutic removal. After an X-ray examination, if it is found that wisdom teeth may cause cavities, periodontal disease, jaw inflammation, trismus and so on, they can be removed in advance before the onset of the disease.
People may refuse to remove their wisdom teeth due to fear of pain or the need for surgery. If the wisdom teeth have started to inflame and are not removed in a timely manner, it may lead to deeper bacterial infections in the root of the teeth or other facial and dental areas, causing more severe inflammation. It will increase the risk and difficulty of the extraction.
