What is Wisdom or Impacted Teeth Removal?

Wisdom teeth, or third molars, often need removal when they don’t have enough space to emerge properly, becoming “impacted” under the gums. Impacted teeth can cause pain, swelling, and infections, making extraction necessary for many patients.

Signs You May Need Wisdom or Impacted Teeth Removal

• Persistent pain or tenderness at the back of the mouth

• Swollen, red, or bleeding gums

• Difficulty opening the mouth or jaw stiffness

• Frequent infections around the affected area

• Shifting or crowding of nearby teeth

The Extraction Process

Initial Consultation:

1. Comprehensive Assessment:

Dr. Mariam will perform an examination, using X-rays to assess the position and alignment of the wisdom or impacted teeth.

2. Treatment Discussion:

We’ll discuss the extraction options, including whether a simple or surgical approach is best for your comfort and recovery.

Extraction Procedure:

1. Comfort with Anesthesia:

Local anesthesia will numb the area to ensure a pain-free experience, with additional sedation options available for complex cases.

2. Tooth Removal:

Dr. Mariam carefully extracts the tooth, using a simple removal technique or a minor incision in the gum if the tooth is impacted.

3. Stitches (If Required):

Stitches may be placed to assist healing and reduce discomfort in certain cases.

Follow-Up and Recovery:

1. Care Instructions:

We’ll provide detailed instructions for reducing swelling and managing discomfort, including recommended foods and aftercare tips.

2. Follow-Up Visit:

A follow-up appointment may be scheduled to monitor healing and answer any questions.

Post-Procedure Care

Immediate Care:

Use an ice pack to minimize swelling, and avoid solid or hot foods for the first 24 hours. Stick to soft foods, and follow gentle hygiene practices to aid in healing.

Long-Term Care:

Routine dental check-ups help monitor the site of extraction and prevent any future issues.

FAQs

Is the procedure painful?

Local anesthesia ensures minimal to no pain during the procedure. Some mild discomfort afterward is typical and can be managed with prescribed pain relief.

How long does recovery take?

Recovery varies, but most patients feel comfortable within a week, with full healing taking a few weeks.

Can I remove all four wisdom teeth at once?

Yes, many patients opt to remove all four at once, though Dr. Mariam will help you determine the best approach for your case.

Will my teeth shift after extraction?

Removing wisdom or impacted teeth generally helps maintain alignment and reduces crowding, rather than causing shifting.
