Just wanted to give you my 2 cents about this. The orthodontic extrusion typically can take up to 1 year and you have to pay the orthodontist quite a lot to do this. This is also something to consider. Usually when people have a tooth that is infected and cannot be saved they typically cannot wait that long to have it taken out. In my opinion it is better to have good preventive care and maybe even root canal therapy so you don't need to take out teeth as much as possible.
