Extractions

Though naturally we would rather you keep your natural teeth, in some situations a tooth may need to be extracted. Reasons for this include extensive tooth decay, an irrepairable tooth fracture or crack, bone infection, impacted wisdom teeth, and elective orthodontic extractions.

Once your tooth is removed the Melbourne Dental Group team will advise you on your options for a suitable replacement tooth. These options include a removable partial denture, a fixed bridge, or dental implants. These prostheses will restore function and form, and prevent your nearby teeth from moving out of alignment.
