TOOTH EXTRACTION CAUSES

T here are countless reasons why a tooth can not be maintained and must be removed. Some of these are:

• If the baby teeth do not loosen and fall in time, they may be blocking the growth of permanent teeth. In this case, the milk tooth must be removed so that the permanent tooth can grow in the right direction.
• When a tooth is cracked or broken and can not be maintained with treatments such as restorations and veneers.
• If in orthodontic treatment of teeth, there is not enough space for the teeth to be placed in the jaw.
• If the wisdom tooth has not fully grown, has decayed, has grown in the wrong direction, has become infected, and has damaged the tooth next to it, it should be removed.
• If a person has a disease of the gums and tissues that support the teeth, the teeth may not be maintainable; In such cases, the tooth must be extracted.

THE TOOTH EXTRACTION PROCEDURE in iran

The steps of tooth extraction are generally as follows:

• The evaluation of the case of the tooth and if it can be repaired or not. If the decision is to extract the tooth, the dentist evaluates the patient’s health and asks whether he/she has any high-risk disease that requires the approval of their diseases specialist. This is mostly the case of tooth extraction in cancer patients or patients of cardiac diseases who may need special consultations, while some tests may be needed for the diabetes patients such as (blood glucose rate).
• Local anesthetic: Tooth extraction under local anesthetic is sufficient for most of the patients, while some special cases may need tooth extraction under sedation or tooth extraction under anesthesia. However, the special anesthetic can be used for patients of cardiac disease, hypertension or pregnant women.
• The assistance prepares the instruments for extraction and suture in a tray. After that, the dentist strip the tooth of the gingival tissues, and luxate the tooth with an elevator, then he/she applies the forceps on the crown of the tooth, and continues to luxate the tooth with buccal and lingual movement until the tooth is removed of its socket.

Most non-surgical extractions need no stitches, and tooth extraction medication may be only over counter painkillers. However, tooth extraction hurts more at night because more blood comes to the site of extraction when the patient is sleeping or leaning down.Tooth extraction for kids may need some preparation by their parents and the dentist. However, in a tooth extraction and implant, the dentist may put the dental implant directly after the procedure, while the tooth extraction membrane aims to replace the vacuum of the extracted tooth by bone tissue instead of a tooth extraction with bone graft.

Tooth extraction in Iran is done through two techniques: simple and surgical. The following is a description of each of these methods:

Simple Tooth Extraction
This method is used when the tooth inside the oral cavity is fully accessible. In this method, tooth extraction is easily done using special tools and with minimal damage.

Surgical Tooth Extraction

• When a tooth has not fully grown;
• When only a small amount of tooth tissue is remaining. In this case, it is not possible to access the tooth through tooth extraction tools of simple tooth extraction techniques;
• When a tooth must be cut into smaller pieces to be removed.
