When to consider tooth extraction or stripping
- Tooth decay: If cavities are not treated in time, they can cause serious damage to the tooth structure and eventually require extraction.
- Infect:If pulpitis is not treated in time, it can lead to severe pain and tooth loss.
- Periodontal disease: Severe periodontal disease can damage the gums and bone structures that support the teeth, leading to loose teeth and tooth loss.
- trauma:Teeth can be damaged in accidents, impacts, or falls, which can lead to tooth loss.
- Wisdom tooth issues:Wisdom teeth can cause crowding or inflammation of surrounding teeth when they erupt, and may need to be extracted if necessary.
- Cracked teeth:If a tooth develops a crack or is damaged, it may be irreparable and extraction should be considered.

Common problems in tooth extraction and tooth peeling
Toothache may be a symptom of dental problems, and tooth extraction may be an effective way to resolve the pain. When other preservative treatments are not possible, tooth extraction can provide rapid pain relief.
Patients can choose dental implants as an alternative to tooth removal, but dental implants are more expensive than tooth removal. The appropriate tooth removal treatment method should be chosen based on the individual's tooth removal situation and needs.
There may be slight pain after tooth extraction. The dentist will arrange anesthesia appropriately and provide corresponding pain relief advice to reduce the patient's discomfort.
A small amount of bleeding within 24 hours is normal. If there is continuous heavy bleeding, you should contact your dentist immediately.
If not properly managed after tooth extraction or removal, a series of oral problems may arise, including tooth displacement leading to misalignment and malocclusion, gum infection causing pain, swelling and fever, gradual loss of alveolar bone due to lack of tooth support, which in turn affects facial appearance and oral structure, and difficulty chewing due to missing teeth, which may lead to dietary restrictions and malnutrition.
If missing teeth affect occlusion or appearance, it is recommended to consider restorative methods such as dental bridges, dentures, or dental implants to prevent tooth displacement and bone loss.
術後腫脹與疼痛：拔牙後牙齦及周圍組織可能腫脹，疼痛通常在數天內緩解。
出血：拔牙後短時間內可能持續滲血，若血塊不穩定，可能導致「乾槽症」。
感染：傷口若清潔不當或免疫力較弱，可能引起牙齦或骨骼感染。
鄰牙或周圍組織損傷：拔牙過程中可能影響到鄰近牙齒、牙齦或骨質。
牙齒移動或咬合改變：缺牙後鄰牙可能傾斜或移位，造成咬合不平衡。
神經麻痺：下顎後牙靠近神經線，拔除時若受壓迫，可能導致嘴唇或下巴暫時麻木。
鼻竇併發症：拔除上顎後牙時，若牙根靠近鼻竇，可能造成鼻竇穿孔。
