Wisdom Tooth Removal
Wisdom tooth extraction is an oral surgical procedure performed on people who have erupted their wisdom teeth. If a wisdom tooth doesn't erupt properly or gets impacted due to some other reason, it may cause pain in the jaws and surrounding teeth. To avoid this scenario, oral surgery is suggested to remove the impacted tooth from its socket.
Wisdom tooth extraction is a surgical procedure to remove one or more wisdom teeth — the four permanent adult teeth located at the back corners of your mouth on the top and bottom.
If a wisdom tooth doesn't have room to grow (impacted wisdom tooth), resulting in pain, infection or other dental problems, you'll likely need to have it pulled. Wisdom tooth extraction may be done by a dentist or an oral surgeon.
To prevent potential future problems, some dentists and oral surgeons recommend wisdom tooth extraction even if impacted teeth aren't currently causing problems.
Extractions
In some cases, an extraction may be needed to remove an infected or damaged tooth from your mouth. It may also be necessary if you have too many teeth in one jaw and require space for orthodontic treatments.
