• | A tooth is fractured in such a way that repair is impractical |
• | The tooth is positioned in such a way that it impacts other teeth, including your wisdom teeth;The tooth is non-functional |
• | Non-surgical is the pulling of a tooth in one clean piece. This means that Dr. Alder was able to grasp the tooth with his dental tools and cleanly pull the tooth from the socket. This is generally a quick removal. |
• | Surgical is the pulling of a tooth piece by piece, sometimes requiring the cutting of gums to get each piece out. This is a more complicated removal procedure, requiring more time, and may be more uncomfortable for the patient. This is due to a tooth being fractured or decayed and breaking apart with the pressure of pulling. |
• | Bleeding |
• | Moderate to severe discomfort or pain |
