If you have a painful toothache you might need to have your tooth extracted. Now there’s a big difference between extracting an adult tooth and pulling a child’s baby tooth that is almost ready to come out.

As emergency dentists in the Baltimore MD area we see many people who need to have one of their teeth extracted due to infection in the root and gums, broken tooth from an accident or wear and tear, etc. We STRONGLY advice against anyone tying to pull their own tooth. This can lead to a lot of nasty and costly complications.

The best option is to call our Baltimore emergency dental office to get your tooth pulled the right way.
