Why Remove Wisdom Teeth?
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, typically emerge between the ages of 16 and 25. While some people experience no issues, many encounter problems that make extraction necessary, including:
Impaction: Wisdom teeth can become stuck in your gums or jawbone, causing pain and potentially leading to chronic infection.
Incorrect Angle: Misaligned growth can press against your other teeth, leading to discomfort.
Lack of Space: Your jaw may not have enough room for these extra molars.
Cavities or Gum Disease: Their location makes proper cleaning difficult, leading to decay or gum issues.
What to Expect
Before Surgery:
Your oral surgeon will guide you through the procedure during a consultation where you’ll discuss:
Your health history and medications.
Surgical anesthesia options to ensure your comfort.
Preparation tips, including planning for time off and arranging transportation home if needed.
During Surgery:
The procedure typically takes 45 minutes or less.
Depending on your specific needs, anesthesia options include:
Local Anesthesia: Numbs the area while keeping you awake.
IV Sedation: Keeps you drowsy or asleep with additional numbing of the area.
General Anesthesia: Ensures you’re fully asleep during the procedure.
After Surgery:
Recovery is straightforward for most patients, with minimal pain and minor swelling lasting 2-3 days. Full healing might take a few weeks. Follow these tips for a smooth recovery:
Dos:
Use an ice pack to reduce swelling.
Eat soft foods (e.g., soups, rice, and pasta).
Stay hydrated and gently brush your teeth starting on the second day.
Don’ts:
Avoid drinking through a straw as it can dislodge blood clots.
Skip hard, crunchy, or sticky foods.
Refrain from smoking, as it can increase complications like dry socket.
