Everyone has a mouth full of oral bacteria. This is true no matter how well you clean your teeth and gums. Left unremoved, a sticky layer of plaque forms that adhere to teeth. This will eventually erode the enamel and result in a cavity.
If the decay is allowed to spread, the damaging bacteria can travel down to the center pulp. When this happens, pain and sensitivity may result. In addition, as the decay worsens the tooth structure will weaken and become more vulnerable to chips, cracks, and breakage.
The good news is that root canal treatment can restore an injured tooth and a crown can add strength. But if the damage is not fixable, tooth extraction in Calgary may be the only way to safeguard your dental health.
Richmond Dental has a team of certified professionals for the service of tooth extractions in SW, Calgary and these dentists use the latest technology equipments for the purpose.
