Certain circumstances may require the extraction of a tooth. For instance, if a baby tooth is misshapen or has long roots impeding its natural shedding, removal may be necessary. In other cases, a severely decayed tooth may jeopardize the health of neighboring teeth, or an infection might necessitate extraction. Orthodontic correction can also warrant tooth extraction.

Wisdom teeth, in particular, often emerge later than other permanent teeth, leading to potential oral health complications. At Peninsula Family Dental Center, we specialize in wisdom teeth extractions to prevent or address such issues and ensure your oral well-being.
