What are Wisdom Teeth?
Wisdom teeth are the last set of teeth to develop, often emerging in the late teens or early twenties. Sometimes these teeth can become impacted or fail to erupt properly due to lack of space in the jaw, leading to various dental problems.
Why Remove Wisdom Teeth?
- Prevent Overcrowding: Helps to prevent the shifting of other teeth that can lead to misalignment.
- Reduce Pain and Infection: Removal eliminates pain and prevents potential infections caused by partially erupted or impacted teeth.
- Decrease the Risk of Oral Disease: By removing hard-to-reach wisdom teeth, it becomes easier to clean the surrounding teeth, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease.
The Procedure:
- Consultation and Imaging: Initial examination and X-rays determine the position of the wisdom teeth and the best approach for removal.
- Sedation Options: Various forms of sedation are available to ensure comfort during the procedure.
- Extraction: The teeth are removed in a controlled environment, and post-operative care instructions are provided to ensure a smooth recovery.
