Why We Might Need to Do a Tooth Extraction

We don’t take tooth extraction lightly, and we will usually go out of our way to help make sure you can keep all of your natural teeth. In some cases, however, tooth extraction is optimal.

  • If a tooth is severely damaged and beyond repair, an extraction might be necessary.
  • When periodontal disease is so far advanced, sometimes an extraction is the first step in improving the look and function of your smile.
  • If a root canal fails, an extraction might be needed.
  • Tooth extraction might be an essential first step to your complex cosmetic dentistry treatment.

Dr. Saad Bassas is a board-certified prosthodontist and a Diplomate of both the American Board of Prosthodontics and the American Board of Oral Implantology/Implant Dentistry — a dual distinction held by only a small number of dentists in the United States. He completed residency training in both oral surgery and prosthodontics, which qualifies him to surgically place and prosthetically restore dental implants himself rather than dividing that care between two providers. With more than 20 years of experience, Dr. Bassas performs hundreds of implant and bone-grafting procedures each year at i-Implant Dentistry in Roseville and Sartell, Minnesota, and is specially licensed to provide IV sedation. He has practiced dentistry in Minnesota since 2003.
