The most common cause of tooth loss is gum disease, but teeth may need to be removed for a variety of reasons. For example, teeth may need to be removed if they are severely decayed and neither fillings, dental crowns, nor root canal treatment can save them. Tooth infections can easily spread to nearby teeth if they aren’t properly treated. Additionally, teeth may be removed if they are severely damaged from injury, causing cracks that extend below the gumline.
