At Kidz Connextion, Dr. John Graneto will do anything he can to avoid pulling a tooth but sometimes, extraction is necessary. One of the common reasons for tooth extraction here at our office, is wisdom teeth removal, due to the risk of infection and/or pain from pushing against surrounding teeth. Other common reasons for pulling a tooth include the following.
- Having extra teeth that block other teeth from coming in.
- If baby teeth don’t fall out in time to allow permanent teeth to come in.
- Orthodontic treatment - getting braces may need teeth extracted to create room for teeth that are being moved into place.
- Some teeth may need to be extracted if they have the potential of becoming infected.
If you have questions or concerns about tooth extractions, please give us a call. To learn more about our pediatric services here at the office visit www.kidzconnextion.com for more information. To schedule an appointment in Phoenix AZ, call 623-223-1001.
