Tooth extraction - Yeditepe University Dental Hospital

Tooth extraction is an oral-surgical procedure. Although modern dentistry tries to preserve every tooth in some situations, it is still necessary to resort to tooth extraction. Before each tooth extraction, it is necessary to make an X-ray and try to endodontically treat the tooth and do everything to keep it in the jaw. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to save a tooth and it is necessary to perform tooth extraction.
