Tooth ache
I have been told by my dentist that root of my baby tooth is coming out of my gums. And since it's painful i need to have it extracted. It's between 2nd premolar and 1st molar. So i had a question That only the root will be removed? Both of my premolar and molar will be as it is? Or they will extract it too?
