TOOTH EXTRACTION

Tooth Extraction – Safe Removal of Damaged Teeth

Tooth extraction is a dental procedure performed to remove severely damaged, decayed, or infected teeth that cannot be saved with restorative treatment. Removing such teeth prevents infection from spreading and protects overall oral health.
