Dental Health: Tooth extraction

Often while visiting your dentist, he or she will tell you need to have a tooth removed. This is mainly due to severe decay.

Before pulling out your tooth, your dentist will put you on anesthesia in the area of the removed tooth. Tooth extraction may be traditional or surgical in more complicated cases.

In the place of a removed tooth you can place an implant, a denture or a bridge. Check prices of dental implants in Budapest.
