The Daily Extraction: Lower Canine by Dr. Tommy Murph


Tooth #22 (lower left cuspid or canine) removed with 301 elevator and #151 forcep

This extraction is a little harder than it looks because the dentist really does not want to fracture the root below the level of the bone. I might have used my trusty Luxator to expose a little more of the clinical crown. But, Mr. Murph has no problem.

This is where experience pays off.

Dr. Murph is a South Carolina dentist who practices general dentistry who really excels in extracting teeth. For patients in the Myrtle Beach area, I can heartily recommend Tommy as YOUR dentist.

For dentists, Dr. Murph has a number of resources for you in extracting teeth, including one on one courses in his office.

Dr. Murph's website is here and his extraction manuals are here on e-Bay.
