Who has dental infections?
You may have heard of people undergoing wisdom tooth extraction or had your dentist recommend removing yours at some point. Have you ever wondered why?
For most people, their wisdom teeth will be blocked from fully erupting into the mouth by the permanent second molars or the surrounding bone and/or gums due to smaller jaw space. These wisdom teeth are considered impacted. The treatment of impacted wisdom teeth is the most common reason why a dentist will recommend wisdom tooth extraction.

Questions & Answers
What happens during a wisdom tooth consultation?
During the initial visit to the dental clinic, your dentist will perform a complete dental examination and take X-rays of your mouth to check the alignment and condition of your wisdom teeth. Surgery may be recommended by the dentist, depending on the condition of the wisdom teeth.
What can I expect during wisdom tooth surgery?
While wisdom tooth surgery is a minor surgical procedure performed under local anesthesia, if you feel nervous, you can opt for the procedure under sedation or general anesthesia.
During wisdom tooth surgery, the surgeon will lift the overlying gums to uncover the wisdom teeth and the surrounding bone. The tooth is then sectioned and removed. After that, the gums are stitched back into their original position.
Wisdom tooth surgery: do I need it?
Not all wisdom teeth need to be removed. As long as the wisdom teeth are fully functional and you can brush and floss them correctly, removal is not necessary. Regular dental check-ups and dental cleanings allow the dentist to monitor the wisdom teeth and recommend preventive treatments if necessary.
If you experience pain or swelling around your wisdom teeth or if you suspect you have an impacted wisdom tooth, schedule an appointment online to consult a dentist about the available treatment options.
