Wisdom teeth or third molars are teeth that sprout from 18. to 25. years of age and occupy the last place in the dentition row. The most common reason for the wisdom teeth not sprouting and for impaction is the lack of space in the dental arch, the incorrect position of the tooth germ or the limited growth of the jaw. The treatment of missing teeth depends on the assessment of the possibility of eruption, the patient's age, general health and the symptoms present. Missing teeth do not have to cause problems, but if they are present, the pain is mild to severe. Swelling may be present in the mouth, but also on the outside, as well as the difficulties in opening the mouth, and even general signs of infection (increased body temperature, malaise, etc.)
If it was determined during the control examination that the wisdom teeth are in a bad position in relation to other teeth, or if their growth disrupts the dental row - it is necessary to remove them.
This intervention is performed under local anesthesia and is absolutely painless. The duration of the intervention itself depends on several factors, such as: the position of the tooth, its development, the number of roots, the relationship with neighboring structures… After the tooth extraction itself, the final stop of bleeding, wound healing and suturing of the wound is performed. Suturing does not hurt and you do not have to worry about anything, because good and quality anesthesia lasts for several hours, in order to cover the time during the operation as well as the time after the operation. With a team of experts, the Dental Plaza dental practice guarantees you complete comfort on each visit.
In order to be able to diagnose and plan surgical removal of the wisdom tooth, it is necessary for the patient to first do an orthopantomographic X-ray or 3D image of the jaw. Dental Plaza dental practice provides the opportunity to do all the examinations and necessary images in one place, in one building of our clinic.
If the image shows that the wisdom tooth is in the wrong position or that there is not enough space for it to sprout, the wisdom tooth can also be removed in patients who are 14 years old, which is several years before their emergence.
It usually lasts between 20 and 30 minutes, although the exact duration of the operation itself can be changed depending on several factors. This is most often influenced by the position and morphology of the teeth, ie of the number of roots and of their arrangement, as well as of the degree of development of the wisdom teeth, which can vary. The relationship with the neighboring anatomical structures can affect the duration of the intervention, and certainly the expertise and skills of the oral surgeon himself.
It is important not to expose yourself to great physical exertion for the first two to three days after the intervention, so as not to intensify the bleeding. If necessary, and in consultation with the dentist, take painkillers as needed (nimulid, brufen). It is advisable to keep cold compresses on the outside of the cheek for about 20 minutes. Then take a break for half of an hour, then repeat the procedure. Keep cold compresses on the day of the intervention. If you notice a small amount of blood from the wound on the day of the operation, it is very important that you do not rinse the blood with water or any other liquid, because the blood should accumulate in the tooth cup and coagulate.
You can spit out blood, but without rinsing. If you can control it, the first night after the operation, do not sleep on the side from which we removed the wisdom tooth.
In case you are a smoker, it would be good not to smoke 24 hours after the operation as tobacco smoke slows down a coagulation. It is necessary to eat softer food that day and never hot, and brush and maintain your teeth with the usual procedure. After the intervention, you need to brush your teeth on the same day and you can spit out the excess paste, just don't shake and rinse too much. Just be a little more careful with the brush in the region of the extracted wisdom tooth.
