Why wisdom tooth removal may be important?

Wisdom teeth are the third molars that occupy space at the back of the mouth and jawline. Due to their eruption in late teens and early twenties after eruption and settling of all adult teeth, several issues can be encountered. Sometimes, you can see that wisdom teeth are growing incorrectly or get stuck, leading to excruciating pain affecting the overall health of other teeth as well.

There are some cases where you don’t need to extract the wisdom teeth at all. Instead, you can simply monitor their development through regular dental appointments.

How does our wisdom tooth removal in London work?

  • Consultation : A dentist will carry out an extensive consultation followed by comprehensive assessment and examination of your wisdom tooth, surrounding teeth and gums. Accordingly, they can ensure that you are the ideal candidate for extraction or not. A 3D CBCT scan may also be performed to check the positions of its nerve along with distance from nearby vital tissues and nerves. Depending on the result, the dentist will explain the most ideal treatment process for you.
  • 2.Preparation : On your extraction day, dentist will administer local anaesthesia for numbing the affected area ensuring a comfortable experience to you.
  • 3.Extraction : To extract the wisdom tooth, top-rated dentists in London will push the gum slightly back to obtain perfect access to the tooth. For easily accessible teeth, a traumatic tooth extraction technique is what we use to diminish the trauma to its surrounding tissues. However, for impacted or larger wisdom tooth, scrapping off the bone surrounding the tooth and breaking it into parts for correct removal may be necessary.
  • 4.Healing : The gum will be replaced, and dentists will use dissolving stitches to ensure that it heals well. Initially, you may experience some pain and swelling right after the extraction procedure, but the dentist will provide pain medication to manage it.

FAQs

Why do you need to remove the impacted wisdom tooth?

An impacted wisdom tooth accumulates bacteria and food debris around the gums causing pain and swelling. Bad breath, gum infection, further soreness and pain are more likely to develop. Extraction will minimise the risk of these issues promoting a better oral health.

After extraction, you will experience soreness, swelling, bleeding and pain. These are natural and can be easily managed using antibiotics, mouthwash and pain killers. If there is prolonged bleeding from the socket and pressing with gauge won’t help, you must contact and see your dentist again as soon as possible. Tingling sensations on tongue and lips are normal too, which will subside naturally. See a dentist near you if it persists for a long period of time.

Take the whole procedure slowly and refrain from any kind of exercise for a couple of days. Don’t have hot drinks for the first 24 hours of extraction and take soft diet for some days. You should also avoid smoking at least a week after the extraction procedure.

Dentists at our partner dental clinics in London use local anaesthesia to numb the area so that you won’t feel any pain. Afterwards, minimal discomfort and pain is likely to occur on a temporary basis and can be easily addressed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

For the first two hours after treatment, avoid stained items such as red wine, cigarettes, beetroot, coffee, and tea. After this period, you can resume normal eating, but it's best to avoid stain-inducing items to maintain the treatment's effects.
