Is It Essential To Remove The Wisdom Tooth?
Losing a tooth can be devastating. That is why most people would rather find any other means to retain their tooth. The wisdom tooth is the third molar. It is located at the end of the jaws. The jaws of some people lack space. Hence, it becomes impossible for the jaws to support the growth of the third molar. In such cases, the dentists can decide if the third molars are to be removed or kept. The third molars can be retained if they are; healthy, fully grown, positioned correctly and can be cleaned daily.
The reason why their extraction becomes downright important because of the following reasons:
- When they grow at an angle toward the next tooth
- When they grow at an angle towards the back of your mouth
- When they grow at a right angle to the other teeth
- When they grow straight
Minor Complications
- Pain and swelling in your gums where the tooth/teeth were removed.
- Bleeding in the gums.
- Pain opening your jaw or jawing.
- Damage to existing dental work such as bridges or crowns.
