What If I Don’t Want My Tooth Pulled?

That’s okay. The decision is always yours.

Our job is to explain what’s happening, discuss your treatment options, and help you understand the benefits and risks of each choice. If a tooth can be predictably saved, we’ll explain those options. If we believe the tooth cannot be saved, we’ll explain why.

Choosing to delay treatment doesn’t always mean something bad will happen immediately, but it’s important to understand how the condition may change over time. Infections can worsen, teeth can fracture further, and treatment options may become more limited.

We want you to feel informed and confident in your decision, never pressured.
