Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last set of teeth to develop and often cause discomfort or complications due to lack of space in the jaw. Surgical extraction may be necessary to prevent pain, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth. At Aastha Dental and ENT Clinic in South Delhi, we specialize in safe and efficient surgical wisdom tooth extraction, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience for our patients.
Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Teeth that fail to emerge fully or are trapped within the jawbone.
Crowding: When wisdom teeth push against neighboring teeth, causing alignment issues.
Infection or Decay: Partially erupted wisdom teeth can create pockets that harbor bacteria.
Cysts or Tumors: In rare cases, wisdom teeth can lead to cysts, which may damage bone or other teeth.
Chronic Pain: Persistent pain in the jaw, swelling, or difficulty opening the mouth can indicate the need for extraction.
Consultation and Diagnosis:
A thorough examination, including X-rays, to assess the position of the wisdom teeth and plan the procedure.
Anesthesia:
Local or general anesthesia is administered to ensure a pain-free experience.
Surgical Procedure:
A small incision is made in the gum, and the tooth is carefully extracted, often in sections to minimize trauma.
Closure and Healing:
The incision is sutured, and a gauze pad is placed to control bleeding.
Rest: Avoid strenuous activities for the first 48 hours.
Pain Management: Take prescribed medications as directed.
Cold Compress: Apply ice packs to reduce swelling.
Diet: Stick to soft foods and avoid hot, spicy, or crunchy items.
Oral Hygiene: Rinse gently with salt water after 24 hours and avoid vigorous brushing near the surgical site.
