Get Your Wisdom Teeth Removed From the Best Experts

The third set of molars, Wisdom Teeth, are the final teeth that erupt usually in the late teens or early twenties. In cases where the wisdom teeth erupt smoothly, without any kind of interruption, they prove to be an asset. However, if they come out otherwise, these molars can cause pain, irritation, and inconvenience and require removal. The circumstances when dentist advice for wisdom tooth removal are-

Impacted Tooth: As a wisdom tooth erupts in the far back of your mouth, there is a possibility that it may not come out normally. The wisdom teeth may get trapped in the jawbone or gum and cause pain.

Incorrect angle: There are various cases when a wisdom tooth presses against other teeth if it develops at a wrong angle. This can cause harm to the adjacent teeth.

Jaw Size: When the jaw is not large enough to accommodate extra molars like wisdom teeth, one may experience inconvenience. This can lead to damage of nerves, making the jaw hollow.

Cavity or gum diseases: At times, the toothbrush or the floss may not reach the area where wisdom teeth are located. This leads to gum disease or cavities attacking the teeth.

Symptoms that Indicate Removal of Wisdom Teeth

  • If the pain behind the molars increases with time
  • If there is any redness, swelling or tenderness causing infection
  • If you experience foul breath or bad taste, which may be a result of wisdom teeth
  • Pain and stiffness in the jaw

The Procedure of Wisdom Tooth Extraction

The procedure of wisdom tooth removal depends on the development and condition of the wisdom tooth. If the wisdom tooth has fully erupted, it becomes easy to extract it. However, if the tooth is impacted, the process requires incisions in the gums. Here, the extraction of tooth takes place in parts to reduce the amount of bone that is to be extracted for removal.
