Wisdom Teeth extraction

Wisdom Teeth extraction

Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last permanent teeth to emerge, typically between ages 17 and 25. If wisdom teeth don't have enough space to erupt fully, they can become impacted, meaning they are trapped under the gum or bone or adjoining tooth.

Common signs of wisdom tooth issues include:

🔹 Red, inflamed, or swollen gums near the wisdom tooth

🔹 Facial swelling and jaw pain

🔹 Sensitivity, difficulty opening the mouth, or trouble swallowing

🔹 Sore lymph nodes under the jaw

🔹 Fever and food getting trapped, making cleaning difficult

Wisdom Tooth Removal – A Comfortable Process

The removal procedure itself is not painful, as the area will be fully numbed. However, if you feel discomfort at any point, let your dentist or oral surgeon know—they can administer additional anesthesia to ensure a pain-free experience.

Early evaluation and timely removal can prevent complications, making the healing process smoother and recovery easier. If you're experiencing symptoms, consult your dentist for a professional assessment.
