Wisdom tooth surgery, or wisdom tooth extraction, is a common procedure aimed at removing one or more of the four wisdom teeth located at the back corners of your mouth. These teeth often cause problems due to lack of space or improper growth. At Dr. Haroon Dental Specialist Clinic, we offer expert wisdom tooth surgery with a focus on patient comfort and effective results.
Q1: Why do wisdom teeth need to be removed? A1: Wisdom teeth often need to be removed due to lack of space in the mouth, improper alignment, or the potential to cause infections, cysts, or damage to adjacent teeth.
Q2: What are the signs that I need my wisdom teeth removed? A2: Common signs include pain at the back of the mouth, swelling around the jaw, difficulty opening your mouth, and frequent infections in the soft tissue behind the last tooth.
Q3: Is wisdom tooth surgery painful? A3: The surgery itself is not painful due to the use of anesthesia. Postoperative discomfort is common but can be managed with prescribed pain medication and proper care.
Q4: What type of anesthesia is used during the procedure? A4: Depending on the complexity of the extraction and patient preference, we offer local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia to ensure comfort during the procedure.
Q5: How long does the surgery take? A5: The duration of the surgery varies depending on the number and position of the wisdom teeth being removed. Typically, the procedure takes about 45 minutes to an hour.
Q6: What can I expect during the recovery period? A6: Recovery involves some swelling, discomfort, and minor bleeding. Following our detailed aftercare instructions, including using ice packs, taking prescribed medications, and eating soft foods, can help manage these symptoms.
Q7: Are there any risks associated with wisdom tooth surgery? A7: As with any surgical procedure, there are risks, including infection, dry socket, nerve damage, and sinus issues. However, these complications are rare and can be minimized with proper care and by following postoperative instructions.
Q8: How soon can I return to normal activities after the surgery? A8: Most patients can resume normal activities within a few days, but it is recommended to avoid strenuous activities and follow a soft diet for at least a week to ensure proper healing.
