Wisdom Teeth All You Need to Know by Dentist in Brampton

Page 1


When should wisdom teeth be extracted? To know if your wisdom teeth need to be extracted, an oral examination and a panoramic X-ray are necessary. Your dentist will recommend the extraction of your wisdom teeth if: •They are trapped in the gum •They partially erupt •They have no real use and are impossible to clean properly •They grow at an angle and therefore risk damaging neighboring teeth The Brampton dentist suggested that you have to remove your wisdom teeth before the first half of your 20s, as the roots of your wisdom teeth are not fully formed by then. This reduces the risk of complications during extraction and facilitates postoperative recovery. However, regardless of your age, you should consult your dentist and follow his recommendations as soon as you experience a problem or pain related to these famous third molars. This will prevent many oral problems.


What if you keep your wisdom teeth despite the recommendations? If you haven't extracted your wisdom teeth, according to Dentist the problem could appear in your 30s, 40s, and even later. It is possible to do the extraction late to prevent oral worsening from developing, but the surgery is then more delicate, the risk of complications higher, and the recovery slower.

If not, you should contact your dentist since there could be an infection. Swelling also usually appears after the extraction, and sometimes even bruises, but the bruises should go away after a week.
