While many teenagers and adults have their wisdom teeth out, there are additional reasons why adult tooth extraction may be required. Tooth extraction may be necessary due to tooth decay, infection, or crowding. When getting braces, one or two teeth may need to be removed to provide room for the other teeth as they shift into place. Additionally, patients who are undergoing chemotherapy or are preparing to undergo an organ transplant may require the removal of compromised teeth in order to maintain their oral health. Tooth extraction is a relatively rapid outpatient surgery performed by a dentist or oral surgeon using local, general, intravenous, or a combination of anesthetics. Extraction of visible teeth is a simple procedure. A more extensive technique is required for teeth that are fractured, below the surface or impacted.
