WISDOM TOOTH REMOVAL

Wisdom Tooth Removal & Tooth Extraction

Wisdom tooth removal and tooth extraction are common dental procedures performed to protect your oral health and relieve pain or infection. When a tooth is severely damaged, infected, or impacted, removing it can prevent further complications and restore comfort.

When Is Tooth Extraction Needed?

Tooth removal may be recommended in cases of:

• Impacted wisdom teeth
  
  

• Severe tooth decay or infection
  
  

• Advanced gum disease
  
  

• Overcrowding before orthodontic treatment
  
  

• Broken or non-restorable teeth
  
  

Early removal can prevent pain, swelling, and damage to surrounding teeth.

Wisdom Tooth Removal

Wisdom teeth (third molars) often do not have enough space to erupt properly. This can lead to:

• Pain or pressure at the back of the mouth
  
  

• Swelling or gum infection
  
  

• Damage to nearby teeth
  
  

• Difficulty cleaning the area
  
  

Removing problematic wisdom teeth helps prevent future dental issues and maintains overall oral health.

What to Expect During the Procedure

1. Examination & X-rays – To assess the position of the            tooth.

  2. Anesthesia – Local anesthesia ensures a comfortable            procedure.

  3. Tooth Removal – The tooth is gently loosened and                  removed.

  4. Post-Extraction Care – Instructions are provided to                promote proper healing.

Most extractions are completed in a single visit.

Recovery & Aftercare

• Mild swelling or discomfort is normal for a few days.
  
  

• Applying a cold compress can reduce swelling.
  
  

• Follow all post-treatment instructions carefully.
  
  

• Avoid smoking and using straws during early healing.
  
  

Proper care helps ensure a smooth and quick recovery.
