TOOTH  EXTRACTION

You may need a specialist for a complex tooth extraction. This is especially true in cases where the tooth is broken or impacted.

Some special situations will create additional difficulties or risks and require special attention from the oral and maxillofacial surgeon during the procedure.

In complex cases, your dentist may want to recommend our services and medical-surgical expertise so you can receive the best care possible.

Impacted Tooth

Impacted teeth deviate from their normal position in the dental arch, growing either deeper into the gums or within the jawbone. Commonly affected, “wisdom teeth” emerge behind the jawbone, typically appearing between the ages of 18 and 24, sometimes remaining impacted.

Impacted Tooth Surgery

Impacted tooth surgery involves surgically removing impacted teeth due to issues like tooth pain, jaw pain, inflammation, cysts, or decay. This procedure is often performed under local anesthesia or general anesthesia.

Dental procedures are conducted by a dentist or oral surgeon. The surgery involves cutting the gum, removing the bone tissue over the impacted tooth, and carefully extracting the tooth without damaging adjacent teeth. The method and technique used may vary based on the tooth’s location and the patient’s condition.

Before surgery, a dentist or oral surgeon conducts an examination and takes X-rays to determine the tooth’s position and select appropriate techniques. Patients are usually administered local anesthesia or general anesthesia before the procedure.

After tooth surgery, patients are advised to rest for a few days, avoid strenuous activities, and refrain from hot foods and drinks in the initial days. Following the doctor’s prescribed medications and oral care instructions is crucial.

In summary, impacted teeth are common and can lead to issues such as pain, jaw discomfort, cysts, or decay. Impacted tooth surgery is a safe surgical intervention to address these problems. Techniques used during the procedure and the recovery process may vary based on the tooth’s location and the patient’s condition. Generally, the procedure is safe, and potential risks are minimal. The costs of dental procedures can vary based on the location, techniques used, including pre-operative examinations and X-rays.

About Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth are the third molars located at the back of the dental arch and are the last teeth to appear. They generally emerge around age 18, but can also grow in later. Their eruption can be painful, and can potentially lead to a variety of oral and maxillofacial pathologies, especially if they lack space or are misaligned. In these cases, where they remain completely or partially covered by the gums and jawbone, there is a greater risk of developing a number of issues. Wisdom tooth removal will be necessary to contain the problem and prevent more serious oral diseases.

Complications

Not all wisdom teeth require surgery. some wisdom teeth grow in without any problems affecting the jaw or adjacent teeth. their position at the back of the jaw makes cleaning more difficult, and poor oral hygiene can lead to tooth decay and infection.

Problematic cases like these will most likely require surgery to remove the wisdom teeth.
