Abstract: Background: Dental extractions are often performed when teeth have become challenging to restore as a result of tooth decay, periodontal disease or dental trauma. However, despite advances in dental therapy, individuals hesitate to save teeth thereby prolonging periods of edentulism which if unreplaced may pose difficulties in restoring esthetics and function. Aim: To extrapolate reasons for tooth extraction among individuals of different age groups in a population in Chennai. Materials and methods: A questionnaire survey was designed to evaluate the reasons of extraction which was carried out among 221 patients with 500 tooth extractions having been performed for these individuals for varying reasons such as periodontitis, dental caries, trauma, orthodontic, prosthetic and endodontic failures. Results : 500 extractions performed in 221 patients revealed that 113 (22.6%) teeth extracted was due to dental caries, 186 (37.2%) was extracted due to periodontitis, 94(18.8%) due to orthodontic problems, 75(15%) due to impaction and 32(6.4%) due to other causes. Conclusion: In this study out of 500 teeth extractions, 186 (37.2%) teeth were extracted due to periodontitis which was also noted to be the major cause for tooth extraction in males over 31 years of age. The next most common cause of tooth etractions were due to teeth affected by dental caries and pulpitis(22.6%). In females, the latter was the major for tooth extraction, followed by periodontitis with the number of extractions increasing in individuals between the age groups 21 to 40 years. Among all age groups the most commonly extracted tooth were the lower posterior teeth.
