Wisdom teeth grow at the back of your mouth. Generally, they do not give any trouble, but sometimes they might grow at a weird angle that applies pressure to the neighboring teeth causing pain in your jaws. If you have impacted and painful wisdom teeth, then extraction is an effective way to eliminate it. At Miami Essential Dental Clinic, you will get experienced dental surgeons who will help you get rid of your painful wisdom teeth.
Wisdom teeth are the third set of molars located at the back of your mouth. They usually appear between the age of 17 and 25 years and cause no problems. But sometimes, you might need to undergo wisdom teeth extractions due to the following reasons:
- They might not always come out naturally and get impacted. If it gets trapped in your gums or jawbones, then that can be very painful.
- If they come out at a weird or wrong angle, pressing other teeth can cause a lot of pain.
- If your mouth is small and does not have enough room for additional teeth to grow
- As the wisdom teeth are located far back inside your mouth, maintaining their oral hygiene through brushing and flossing can be tricky. It can lead to cavities and gum diseases.
This surgery is a painless procedure as you will be given local anesthesia. To recover fast, make sure that you follow all the instructions provided by your dentist. Do not eat any hard, chewing, or sticky food; instead, have fluids. Start brushing your teeth on the second day after the surgery. Do not consume alcohol or tobacco as that can slow down the recovery process. If you experience any swellings, give a cold compress to that area. Take the medications as prescribed by your dentist and come back for scheduled appointments to ensure that everything is fine.
