Overview

About Wisdom Tooth Removal

Wisdom teeth are the last molars to erupt, often between the late teens and twenties. Many do not have enough room to come through correctly.

A wisdom tooth may need removal if it causes pain, infection, swelling, decay, gum problems, or pressure on the tooth in front.

Treatment details

Types of wisdom tooth impaction

Soft tissue impaction

The tooth is partly covered by gum tissue, creating a pocket where food and bacteria can collect.

Partial bony impaction

Part of the tooth is trapped under bone, often causing repeated pain or infection.

Full bony impaction

The tooth is buried in the jawbone and may lie sideways against the adjacent molar.

Common questions

FAQs about Wisdom Tooth Removal

Does every wisdom tooth need to come out?

No. Removal is recommended when the tooth is painful, infected, damaging nearby teeth, or likely to cause problems.

How long does recovery take?

Most patients feel much better within a few days and recover comfortably within 7 to 10 days.

What is dry socket?

Dry socket happens when the blood clot is lost too early. Avoiding straws, forceful rinsing, and smoking lowers the risk.
