Tooth removal: A tooth extraction is just another way to say tooth removal. We hate to say pull because we actually wiggle the tooth much more than actually pull it. It slowly comes out most times and we are pretty good at preserving the bone around the tooth which is important for implant placement or placing a bridge.
