Tooth Extractions Albuquerque

Giving Smiles the Space They Need

Once our natural teeth erupt and take the place of those we lost as young children, we are encouraged to keep them healthy and strong for the rest of our lives. Unfortunately, instances can occur that make that impossible. Whether it is poor oral hygiene, facial trauma, or even overcrowding, tooth extractions in Albuquerque are often necessary. Although Dr. Boehmer wants all her patients to maintain their natural smiles as long as possible, she ensures a safe, comfortable, and positive experience for patients preparing for tooth removal.

Why Would a Tooth Need to Be Extracted?

There are many reasons one or more teeth may need to be extracted. They include:

• Significant decay is spreading and posing a risk to healthy teeth that are surrounding the infected tooth
• Sustaining facial trauma that results in a cracked, chipped, or severely damaged tooth
• Orthodontic treatment that is required to address overcrowding, and removing one or more teeth will allow for ample space when teeth begin to shift
• A child’s baby tooth will not fall out on its own, but the permanent tooth needs space to erupt
