Treatment Requiring Extraction of Teeth at O’Keeffe Orthodontics, Waterford
In a minority of cases, due to the severity of crowding, a severely convex or pouty facial profile, poor patient cooperation, tooth destruction due to decay, accident or gum disease, dental extractions become necessary during orthodontic treatment in order to achieve a beautiful smile.
Many times extractions may simplify treatment but must be recommended only when non extraction methods will not reasonably produce the ideal smile.
Your own regular dentist will carry out the extractions for you.
