Here we have an interesting case of an extraction of a decayed (carious) upper molar with an impacted wisdom tooth which is adjacent and is not being extracted. Here is the radiograph (x-ray):
The patient is young and the rationale is that tooth #1 (the wisdom tooth) will come down into place and replace the extracted molar. The tooth may or may not move but the patient has plenty of time for it to develop.
Enjoy your Daily Extraction.
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.
