When To Consider Wisdom Tooth Removal
There are several reasons why removing your wisdom teeth may be recommended during a dental assessment. If they are causing discomfort or affecting nearby teeth, wisdom teeth removal may be advisable for the following reasons:
- Impacted Growth: When wisdom teeth grow at odd angles or get stuck below the gum line, they can cause pressure and pain.
- Crowding Nearby Teeth: A lack of space can lead to your other teeth shifting or overlapping.
- Recurring Infections: Partially erupted wisdom teeth are hard to clean and can trap bacteria, leading to gum infections.
- Tooth Decay: Wisdom teeth' deep placement at the back of the mouth makes them more prone to cavities and decay.
- Cyst Formation: In some cases, cysts can form around unerupted wisdom teeth, potentially damaging nearby bone and tissue.
Wisdom teeth removal is often a practical way to prevent future oral health issues. Speak with our team to see if removal is the right step for you.
Our Wisdom Tooth Removal Process
At Trower Dental, the wisdom tooth removal process begins with a clear and careful assessment. We use a combination of visual checks and imaging to understand the position of your wisdom teeth and whether they may lead to discomfort, infection, or crowding. From there, we discuss your options based on what’s best for your situation.
If removal is the right choice, we explain the procedure in detail so you know what to expect. Depending on the position of your wisdom teeth, the process may involve a simple extraction or a minor surgical step. Throughout, we focus on keeping you informed and supported at every stage.
After your removal, we provide guidance to help with healing and reduce any discomfort. Our team offers tips for care at home, including what to eat, how to clean the area, and when to return if needed. The goal is a smooth, uncomplicated recovery that fits your routine.
What are wisdom teeth?
Wisdom teeth are the last set of molars that typically appear between the ages of 17 and 25. Most adults develop four wisdom teeth, but some may have fewer or none at all. Because they erupt later than other teeth, they can become problematic if there’s not enough space in the mouth. This may lead to issues like crowding, infection, or impaction, which is why regular dental monitoring of their development is important.
Why do wisdom teeth need to be removed?
Wisdom teeth may need to be removed if they are causing pain, pushing against other teeth, or becoming impacted. Their position at the back of the mouth makes them harder to clean, increasing the risk of decay and gum disease. Removal is often recommended when they create pressure, inflammation, or are likely to affect nearby teeth and jaw structure. Even when not painful, preventative removal may be suggested based on dental assessments and X-rays.
What is an impacted wisdom tooth?
An impacted wisdom tooth is one that fails to fully emerge through the gum or grows in at an angle due to lack of space. This can cause pain, swelling, and lead to infections or damage to nearby teeth. In some cases, cysts can form around the impacted tooth. Impacted wisdom teeth are usually discovered during dental checkups and are commonly removed to prevent further complications and support the long-term health of surrounding teeth and gums.
