What is wisdom tooth extraction?
Wisdom tooth extraction is a dental procedure to remove one or more wisdom teeth (the third molars). These teeth usually come in during the late teens or early twenties and can cause problems like impaction, misalignment, or pain. Dentists often recommend extraction to avoid these issues and keep your mouth healthy.
Wisdom teeth removal is typically recommended for individuals who experience the following
- Impacted Wisdom Teeth – When wisdom teeth don’t have enough room to emerge properly, they can become trapped or impacted, leading to pain, swelling, or infection.
- Crowded Teeth – If your jaw doesn’t have enough space for additional teeth, wisdom teeth can push against other teeth, causing misalignment or crowding.
- Tooth Decay or Gum Disease – Wisdom teeth are located at the back of the mouth, making them harder to clean. This can lead to cavities or gum disease, which may require removal.
- Pain or Discomfort – Some people experience significant discomfort, including swelling, soreness, or jaw stiffness, due to wisdom teeth, making extraction necessary.
- Cysts or Infections – In some cases, cysts can form around wisdom teeth, leading to infection or damage to surrounding teeth and bone, which may require removal.
- Preventive Care – Even if wisdom teeth are not causing immediate problems, dentists may recommend removal to prevent potential issues in the future.
Not everyone needs wisdom teeth removal, so it’s best to consult with a dentist to determine if extraction is necessary in your case.
