An extraction (the removal of a tooth) is often used as a 'quick fix' to eliminate dental pain
In the short term this seems like an excellent solution
However, extractions are only recommended in cases where the long term success of the tooth is extremely limited (for exaple, advanced infection or a complex fracture)
Camp Hill Dental strongly believes in applying preventative dentistry and endeavours to educate our patients in a friendly manner regarding prevention of decay
We understand that without regular check-ups, decay can often go unnoticed by patients, due to the lack of symptoms, resulting in the eventual need to extract
If you feel your teeth have suffered from decay for a long time or if you are in need of professional oral care, schedule an appointment today before your options become limited.
