Tooth Extractions Keokuk

When It’s Time to Part with a Problem Tooth

We want to help you keep your natural teeth for as long as possible. However, an extraction can often be the only available option once a tooth is past the point of repair. If you suspect that you have a tooth that is badly damaged, decayed, or hurting and needs to be removed, call to schedule an appointment with Dr. Steve.

When Are Tooth Extractions Necessary?

You can expect Dr. Steve to recommend tooth extraction if:

  • You’ve badly damaged your tooth, causing it to break. A root canal and dental crown are not enough to fix the problem, so it must be removed.
  • Dental decay is spreading and putting other teeth at risk, so removing the infected tooth is the only way to safeguard your oral health.
  • You have advanced gum disease that is weakening the bone supporting your teeth.
  • Your child’s baby tooth refuses to fall out on its own, making it challenging for the permanent one to erupt successfully.
