Why Can’t My Tooth Be Fixed?

This is an important question, and one you should always feel comfortable asking.

Sometimes there’s simply not enough healthy tooth remaining to support a filling or crown. In other cases, the tooth may have a severe fracture, advanced bone loss, or an infection that can’t be predictably treated.

At Dental Oasis, we don’t recommend treatment just because it’s possible. We recommend treatment that we believe has the best chance of lasting.

We’ll show you exactly what we’re seeing and explain why we believe an extraction or another treatment is the best option.
