Do you know about wisdom teeth and why is it often so important to get them removed? Let’s try to expand your knowledge on this topic.
Wisdom teeth or third molars are the last teeth present in the jaws. They usually emerge after 17 years of age, after which it is believed that a person attains “wisdom”.
In most cases, there is not enough room for the wisdom teeth to erupt or develop in a normal manner. This results in three scenarios:
- Non-eruption;
- Partial eruption; or
- Improperly positioned wisdom teeth
In the case of non-eruption, they have a probability of causing various kinds of cysts or tumours of the jaws.
In the second and third scenarios, it becomes challenging for an individual to maintain oral hygiene around these teeth, and it may result in the following:
- Tooth pain, dull or severe
- Jaw pain, sometimes radiating to the ear and/or head.
- Difficulty and pain in mouth opening in severe cases
- Recurrent food lodgement (resulting in cavities)
- Repetitive swelling
- Bleeding or pus discharge from the gums
To prevent the above situation or other oral health issues to arise, it is best to consult a dentist, preferably an oral surgeon(specialist for minor surgical procedures of the mouth), for the extraction of one or more of your third molars.
In most cases, the best possible management for these teeth is surgical removal.
When it comes to expertise in wisdom tooth removal, Dr. Ujjwal Gulati, is considered one of the best oral and maxillofacial surgeons and implantologists in India.
He works along with his highly skilled team of professionals to ensure that the patients are provided with the best quality treatment at an affordable cost.
