What is wisdom tooth extraction?

 The four permanent adult teeth known as wisdom teeth are placed at the top and bottom back corners of your mouth. A wisdom tooth extraction is a surgical procedure to remove one or more of these teeth.

You’ll probably need to have a wisdom tooth removed if it is impacted, or if it is causing you pain, an infection, or other dental issues. An oral surgeon or a dentist can remove a wisdom tooth.

Even if impacted teeth aren’t currently causing issues, some dentists and oral surgeons advice wisdom tooth extraction dentists to avoid potential future issues.

Why do you need a wisdom tooth extraction?

The final permanent teeth to erupt in the mouth are the wisdom teeth, sometimes known as third molars. Between the ages of 17 and 25 when these teeth typically erupt. Some individuals never get wisdom teeth. Others do not experience any issues when their wisdom teeth erupt naturally, just like their other molars did.

Wisdom teeth that don’t have enough room to erupt into the mouth or develop normally are known as impacted wisdom teeth. Impacted wisdom teeth may partially or completely fail to emerge.

An impacted wisdom tooth may:

  • Grow at an angle toward the next tooth (second molar)
  • Grow at an angle toward the back of the mouth
  • Grow at a right angle to the other teeth, as if the wisdom tooth is “lying down” within the jawbone
  • Grow straight up or down like other teeth but stay trapped within the jawbone

When to have a wisdom tooth extraction?

  • Have dental pain near the back of your mouth.
  • Trap food and debris around your wisdom teeth.
  • Develop gum disease, particularly around your molars.
  • Have tooth decay (cavities) in a partially erupted wisdom tooth.
  • Develop a cyst (fluid-filled sac) around one or more wisdom teeth.
  • Have sustained damage to nearby teeth or surrounding bone.

What are the risks or complications of wisdom teeth extraction?

Most of the time, wisdom teeth removal doesn’t result in long-term complications. In rare instances, people may develop:

  • Infection
  • Dry sockets (loss of blood clot resulting in exposed bone).
  • Damage to other oral structures, including the jawbone, nerves, sinuses or nearby teeth.

At what age should I have my wisdom teeth extracted?

People of all ages can have their wisdom teeth removed. However, many dentists recommend having them extracted in your late teens or early 20s. During this stage of development, your wisdom teeth are still forming. For this reason, they may be easier to remove with less risk of complications.

What are the dos and don’ts before wisdom tooth surgery?

  • No eating or drinking after midnight before surgery. This is for your safety. The risk of administering anesthesia on a “full stomach” is regurgitation and subsequent obstruction of your airway. This is a very serious complication. Don’t risk it.
  • Be honest about the over-the-counter and prescribed medications that you take. Help us avoid unpleasant or unsafe interactions with anesthesia.
  • Be honest about recreational drug and alcohol use. Believe it or not, a body which is accustomed to drugs and alcohol will pose different challenges. Help us prepare in advance for this challenge.
  • Do not smoke for 12 hours before surgery. Better yet, just don’t smoke!
  • Get your room at home ready for your recovery. Charge your tablet, find the remote and gather your pillows. You will be resting for a couple of days, so make the most of it.
  • Stock up on the right food to eat when you return home. We suggest ice cream, smoothies, mashed potatoes and other soft foods.
  • Arrive at the office in comfortable clothing such as sweatpants and t-shirts. Do not wear contacts — opt for glasses instead.
  • Young ladies should pull their hair back, remove nail polish and jewelry, and leave the lipstick at home. You are beautiful just the way you are!
  • Bring your parent(s) to the surgery appointment. You can’t drive yourself home! Your parent or guardian must stay in our office for the duration of your procedure.
  • And, finally, when the surgical assistant summons you from the waiting room, turn your phone off and hand it to your parent(s.) You can’t take the phone in the operatory. You will survive the separation!

What to do as Wisdom teeth removal aftercare?

Here are some general guidelines to help foster a comfortable recovery after wisdom teeth removal:

  • Rest as much as you can for the first few days.
  • Avoid strenuous activity for 48 to 72 hours.
  • Place a cold compress or ice pack on your face to help reduce swelling.
  • Keep the surgical sites clean by gently soaking them with an antimicrobial mouthwash.
  • Don’t swish vigorously, as this can dislodge blood clots and cause dry sockets.
  • Brush the rest of your teeth normally.
  • Take all medications, including antibiotics and pain relievers, as prescribed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Stock your kitchen with soft foods like pasta, rice, eggs, pudding and yogurt . Additionally, cool foods like ice cream can help soothe the surgical areas. Steer clear of hard, crunchy and spicy foods, as these things can irritate your tissues. Finally, avoid drinking through straws. The suction can dislodge blood clots, which are essential for healing.

Most people can go back to work or school in two to three days after wisdom teeth extraction. However, if your job requires physical labour or heavy lifting, you may need to take a few extra days off of work.
