What is a partially erupted tooth?
What does it mean when a dentist says a tooth is partially erupted
So a dentist told me I have a back tooth that is partially erupted. That I should have it pulled. What does that mean? Should it be pull ? I not sure what he was talking about really. I just said I would make an appointment later for it.
