Dental Extractions in Coquitlam

Dental Extractions

Dental extraction is the removal of a tooth from the mount. No one wants to lose a tooth, and our role, as dentists, is to save the teeth when possible. Extractions are required when a tooth cannot be restored to function in the mouth. Generally, a tooth cannot be restored to function due to large decay, extensive fracture, or gum disease.
After extraction, there are multiple options to replace the missing tooth. To read about your options visit our page about Replacement of Missing Teeth.
