What is Wisdom Teeth Removal?
Wisdom teeth removal, also known as wisdom teeth extraction, is a surgical procedure performed by an oral surgeon to remove one or more of your third molars. These teeth are the last to develop and often become impacted or cause problems, necessitating their removal. The procedure typically involves making an incision in the gum tissue, removing any bone blocking access to the tooth, and then extracting the tooth.
Do I need to get my wisdom teeth removed?
Not everyone needs their wisdom teeth removed. However, if your wisdom teeth are impacted, causing pain, infection, cysts, damage to adjacent teeth, or other complications, removal is often recommended. Our oral surgeons will evaluate your specific situation through a thorough examination and X-rays, and advise you on the best course of action for your oral health.
How Long is the Healing Time?
Recovery typically takes a few days to a week. Most patients can resume normal activities within three to five days, though complete healing may take a bit longer.
What should I eat after the procedure?
Stick to soft foods like yogurt, mashed potatoes, and soups immediately after the procedure. Avoid hard, crunchy, or spicy foods that can irritate the surgical area and slow down healing.
How can I prevent complications?
Follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions to avoid issues like dry sockets. Maintain good oral hygiene, avoid using straws and schedule follow-ups for a smooth recovery.
