Wisdom Teeth and General Extractions

WISDOM TEETH REMOVAL

The movement or eruption of wisdom teeth can be an extremely painful and uncomfortable affliction. In these situations, wisdom tooth removal is often required to relieve discomfort and prevent further damage. At Hocking Dental Care, we can conduct these extraction procedures in a timely and stress-free fashion. Whether you’re suffering from non-restorable tooth decay or your wisdom teeth are coming in at an angle that is adversely affecting other nearby teeth, we can provide professional wisdom teeth removal as well as other teeth extractions for future orthodontic treatment.

Reasons for Wisdom Tooth Extraction

Aside from tooth decay, there are many reasons why wisdom tooth extraction may be necessary. Some of these reasons include:

  • Infections such as acute or chronic abscesses may require wisdom teeth surgery. This is one of the most common reasons why people require tooth extractions.
  • Severe gum disease can affect supporting tissues and bone structures, necessitating tooth extraction procedures.
  • Preparatory work for orthodontic treatments such as braces may require wisdom tooth removal.
  • Removal of wisdom teeth might be required if they prohibit dentures from fitting or negatively affect their appearance.

Frequently asked questions

Why you might need to have your wisdom teeth taken out? If your wisdom teeth are not erupting at a right angle, they can cause damage to the teeth in front or if you haven’t got enough room in your jaw for them to erupt fully, they might need to be taken out. Also, if gums around your wisdom teeth swell up quite frequently and is leading to pain and discomfort at the back of the mouth, it is ideal to have them out.
