Benefits of Wisdom Teeth Extraction

July 4, 2016 by Adam Jahur

Wisdom teeth

Wisdom teeth, the third set of molars, typically emerge between the ages of 17 and 25. While some people have no problems when their wisdom teeth come in, many people need to have the third molars removed nolvadex tablets online. There are multiple health benefits associated with this young adult rite of passage.

When there is not enough room in your mouth for the wisdom teeth to completely come through the gums, they may become impacted. This means that they grow in at an angle, disrupting the other teeth, or that they become trapped within the jawbone and don’t emerge at all. Problems caused by impacted wisdom teeth are the most common reason for extraction.

You may benefit from having your wisdom teeth removed if you experience pain, complications with orthodontia procedures to straighten the teeth or tooth decay, gum disease and infection caused when food particles become trapped behind the impacted tooth. Occasionally, fluid-filled sacs form in these spaces. The impacted teeth can also cause damage to surrounding teeth and bones.

In most cases, wisdom teeth extraction is an outpatient procedure that involves manually removing the teeth. This surgery is relatively safe and has a high success rate when performed by our well-trained dental expert.

After the surgery, you will likely have some discomfort; however, this can be controlled through over-the-counter medications. Be sure to drink lots of water and eat soft foods like applesauce, especially in the first 24 hours following your surgery. In most cases, you can resume brushing and flossing normally after the first 24 hours. Follow our dental professional’s post-surgical instructions carefully to avoid any complications.

If your wisdom teeth emerge without issue, you may not need to have them removed. Our dentist can evaluate the new molars and determine whether they are likely to cause problems in the future. Preventive extraction is often recommended to prevent cavities and gum disease; tooth decay; and surgical complications that are more likely when the wisdom teeth are removed in older adults.

If you or your child’s wisdom teeth are starting to come in, consult with our dental experts at Parkwood Dental to determine whether extraction is right for you. This simple surgery could help you avoid a host of health issues in the future. For your convenience, we have offices located in East Bradenton and West Bradenton. Contact us today to schedule your appointment to learn more.
