When to Have Your Tooth Pulled
The caring professionals at Hillcrest Dental will always do everything we can to repair teeth using the latest restorative techniques. However, you may need to have your tooth extracted in some cases, such as:
- Your tooth is severely damaged or decayed
- Root canal treatment has failed to save your tooth
- Your tooth is infected and risking the health of your surrounding teeth
- Your tooth is impacted (or trapped inside the bone beneath the gum line)
- Your jaw is too small to accommodate your teeth and they have become crowded

Gentle Wisdom Tooth Removal

Some patients experience no problem with their wisdom teeth, while others suffer from pain, gum infections, damaged teeth, and other complications. If you need to have one or more wisdom teeth removed, you can trust Hillcrest Dental.
