Wisdom Teeth Removal
Feel the relief of a wisdom tooth extraction
As your adult teeth come through you might be blessed with the perfect smile; but then one day your wisdom teeth decide they want to make an appearance, and you now have an extra tooth that traps food and makes it harder to clean your teeth or even more difficult ot eat due to changes in your bite. This can often cause pain and discomfort.
As wisdom teeth do tend to come through later in life you might find that there isn’t enough room in your mouth for them, and they cause pain and discomfort; at this point your dentist usually suggests a wisdom tooth extraction.
Do wisdom teeth always cause pain when they come through?
The answer is no, wisdom teeth can come through and cause no issues at all, however this isn’t always the case.
Below are a few of the reasons you might need to consider a wisdom tooth extraction from your dentist.
- Your wisdom teeth erupt later than your other teeth, and if there isn’t enough room for them to come through, they can place increase pressure on other teeth and increase the chance of decay around them.
- Alternatively, a wisdom tooth can come through on an angle and push against your teeth causing pain, discomfort, and irritation to the cheek and jawline. This is called an impacted tooth, and a wisdom tooth extraction is the only way to alleviate the pain.
- Wisdom teeth can often break the surface of the gum, but then only partially erupt, this creates a food trap and can cause pain, inflammation, and infection in the area.
