In this second article of three covering the topic of dental emergencies I wanted to continue to outline sensible steps that should be taken immediately if one of these emergency situations occur.

Why would I need a dental extraction?
There are a number of reasons for an extraction.
1) If a tooth is too decayed and broken down to fix
2) If restoring the tooth is not in the best interest of your overall mouth
3) If the tooth is too loose (due to gum disease) to recover
4) To relieve overcrowding.

Gaps from missing teeth, whether due to trauma or extraction, are something that nobody wants.

Missing a tooth or teeth not only impacts your appearance (especially if the gap is at the front) but will also affect you in other ways. Your remaining teeth are vulnerable to drifting, it may cause problems with how you chew, your speech can be affected and it can even affect the appearance of your face.
