Tooth Extraction in Children: What Parents Need to Know
It’s normal for both kids and parents to feel nervous about a tooth being pulled. But the good news is — it’s a safe, gentle, and quick procedure. Most children don’t feel much pain, thanks to numbing medicine and laughing gas (nitrous oxide) that help them stay calm.
Why Might a Child’s Tooth Need to Be Removed?
Most baby teeth fall out on their own. But sometimes, the dentist 6needs to remove them early. Common reasons include:
- Badly decayed or broken teeth – If the tooth is infected or damaged and can’t be fixed, removing it can stop pain and prevent infection.
- Crowding – If too many teeth are in a small space, baby teeth may need to be pulled to make room for adult teeth.
- Before braces – Some teeth may be removed to help straighten your child’s smile and create a healthy bite.
