After a thorough periodontal screening and examination you might need more aggressive therapies.
Healthy gum tissue fits snugly around each tooth.
Bacteria in plaque create toxins that irritate gum tissue.
However, if it's not treated promptly, it may lead to a more serious condition called periodontitis.
During this more advanced stage, the bacterial irritation causes the gums to pull away from the teeth.
Instead of a snug fit, the loose tissue now forms pockets that collect more plaque bacteria.

A dental restoration or dental filling is a dental restorative material used to restore the function, integrity and anatomy of missing tooth structure.
The structural loss typically results from caries or external trauma.
The process of preparation usually involves cutting the tooth with special dental burs, to make space for the planned restorative materials, and to remove any dental decay or portions of the tooth that are structurally unsound.
Composite fillings - Tooth colored fillings are a mixture of acrylic resin and finely ground glass like particles that produce a tooth-colored restoration.

Some reasons why teeth need to be extracted are that they get to a stage when they can no longer be fixed and there are no other alternatives.
That may be attributed to advanced gum disease, a severely fractured tooth.
You may also need to have them removed for elective reasons.
Surgical removal of erupted and impacted: involve the removal of teeth that cannot be easily accessed, either because they have broken under the gum line or because they have not erupted fully.
Biopsy of soft oral tissue: oral tissue biopsy may be necessary for lesions that cannot be diagnosed on the basis of the history and clinical findings alone.
