Wisdom tooth extraction is a surgical operation to remove one or more wisdom teeth found at the back corners of your mouth on the top and bottom of the four permanent adult teeth.
You’ll probably need to get it removed if a wisdom tooth has no space to develop (impacted wisdom tooth), resulting in discomfort, infection, or other dental problems. Our dentist or oral surgeon at Bandra, Mumbai will perform a wisdom tooth extraction.
Some dentists and oral surgeons recommend wisdom tooth extraction to avoid any future complications, even though affected teeth do not actually cause problems.’
Why is Wisdom Tooth removed?
The last permanent teeth to appear (erupt) in the mouth are wisdom teeth or third molars. Typically, these teeth occur between the ages of 17 and 25. Wisdom teeth are never formed by certain people. For others, wisdom teeth usually erupt and pose no problems, much like their other molars.
Many individuals develop impacted wisdom teeth, teeth that do not have enough space to erupt into the mouth or naturally develop. The wisdom teeth affected can erupt only partially or not at all.
An impacted wisdom tooth may:
• Grow at an angle toward the next tooth (second molar)
• Grow at an angle toward the back of the mouth
• Grow at a right angle to the other teeth, as if the wisdom tooth is “lying down” within the jawbone
• Grow straight up or down like other teeth but stay trapped within the jawbone
Problems with impacted wisdom teeth
You’ll likely need your impacted wisdom tooth pulled if it results in problems such as:
• Pain
• Trapping food and debris behind the wisdom tooth
• Infection or gum disease (periodontal disease)
• Tooth decay in a partially erupted wisdom tooth
• Damage to a nearby tooth or surrounding bone
• Development of a fluid-filled sac (cyst) around the wisdom tooth
• Complications with orthodontic treatments to straighten other teeth
Preventing future dental problems
Dental specialists disagree about the value of extracting impacted wisdom teeth that aren’t causing problems (asymptomatic).
It’s difficult to predict future problems with impacted wisdom teeth. However, here’s the rationale for preventive extraction:
• Symptom-free wisdom teeth could still harbor disease.
• If there isn’t enough space for the tooth to erupt, it’s often hard to get to it and clean it properly.
• Serious complications with wisdom teeth happen less often in younger adults.
• Older adults may experience difficulty with surgery and complications after surgery.
Risks of keeping wisdom tooth
Most wisdom tooth extractions don’t result in long-term complications. However, the removal of impacted wisdom teeth occasionally requires a surgical approach that involves making an incision in the gum tissue and removing bone. Rarely, complications can include:
• Painful dry socket, or exposure of bone when the post-surgical blood clot is lost from the site of the surgical wound (socket)
• Infection in the socket from bacteria or trapped food particles
• Damage to nearby teeth, nerves, jawbone, or sinuses
How you prepare
