Extraction therapy is a technique where some teeth are removed to make room for the other teeth in your child's mouth. This is in contrast to non-extraction therapy where no permanent teeth are removed, and it may involve expansion of the patient’s jaws and reducing the size of some of the teeth to relieve any crowding. After a comprehensive clinical exam and review of diagnostic records, Dr. Carcara will advise you as to which option is best for your individual case.
