If there is not enough room in your mouth for your wisdom teeth to grow in, this can often result in impacted teeth, infection, or other oral health issues. Impacted teeth are common for many people and tend to grow in at an angle toward either the next tooth or the back of the mouth. In other situations, the tooth may grow straight up and down and still remain trapped within the jawbone. In order to correct this problem and prevent your new wisdom teeth from affecting your other teeth, we may recommend a wisdom teeth removal.
You may require a wisdom tooth removal if you suffer from the following issues:
- Severe tension in your teeth
- Infection or periodontal disease
- Tooth decay
- Damage to neighboring teeth or the jawbone
To keep your teeth healthy, our dentists can first examine the position of your teeth and wisdom teeth to determine if a removal is the right path of treatment for you. We will go above and beyond to ensure your treatment is as comfortable and convenient for you as possible. If you would like to learn more about wisdom teeth removal, contact our team today or schedule a visit with our dentists!
Understanding The Procedure Of Wisdom Teeth Removal
The process of removing wisdom teeth at Rigby Dental starts with a detailed consultation and imaging, such as x-rays or 3D scans, to visualize the position of the teeth and their roots. This preparation is key to planning an effective removal that minimizes impact on surrounding structures. During the procedure, our skilled dental team ensures that the area around the wisdom teeth is completely numb, or that you are comfortably sedated through IV sedation, depending on your preference and health history. The actual removal involves gently loosening and extracting the teeth, ensuring that all fragments are removed to prevent infection.
Post-Procedure Care & Recovery
After your wisdom teeth are removed, our care for you does not stop. We provide detailed post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth and speedy recovery. This includes advice on diet, such as consuming soft foods and avoiding straws, to tips on managing swelling and discomfort with ice packs and appropriate medication. We are also available for any follow-up visits required to monitor your healing and address any concerns. Our team is dedicated to providing comprehensive support throughout your recovery period.
