The teeth, which have been damaged by decay or fracture, will be repaired and restored with a filling, crown or other treatment by the dentist. But sometimes if the damage is too extensive, the teeth cannot be repaired. Then it is necessary to do the extraction. The other reasons for extraction: The extra teeth that block other teeth from coming in. People undergoing orthodontic work may need teeth extracted to create room for the teeth that are being moved into place. The people, who are having radiation to the head and neck, may need to have teeth in the field of radiation extracted. The people who are receiving chemotherapy may need to have the teeth extracted. Because chemotherapy weakens the immune system and the risk of infection increases. So these teeth may need to be extracted. The people receiving an organ transplant may need some teeth extracted. Because when immunosuppressive medications are given, there is a risk of becoming sources of infection for the teeth after the transplant. Impacted teeth, especially third molars, commonly come during the late teen years or early twenties. These teeth are often extracted either before or after they come in. These teeth get stuck in the jaw and they need to be extracted if they are decayed or cause pain.

Scaling and root planning are the most common and conservative form of treatment for periodontal (gum) disease. In the procedure of scaling the calculus, which is usually called as tartar and plaque, are removed. Plaque is a sticky substance and it is full of bacteria. The calculus is formed when the plaque hardens in time. The calculus and the plaque attach to the tooth surfaces, especially below the gum line along the root surface. And the plaque is more likely to stick to rough surface so the root surfaces need to be smoothed down. The process of root planning is for smoothing down the root surface. In this procedure all the calculus are removed and the root-surface irregularities are smoothed. Ultrasonic scalers and hand instruments are used in the procedure of scaling and root planning. Ultrasonic instruments are electric or air-powered devices. They have two components. The first one is a relatively dull metal tip. It vibrates at a very high frequency and knocks plaque and calculus off the tooth. The second one is a water irrigation system that cools the tip and helps to flush out the debris from the teeth. The hand instruments have cutting edges and they are pressed against the teeth. The hand instruments are called as scalers and curettes. They are not powered instruments. There are various shapes and sizes of them. They are used for different teeth and also for different surfaces of the same tooth.
