How To Quickly Recover After a Wisdom Teeth Removal Procedure

Ever wondered how you can rapidly recover after a wisdom teeth removal surgery? The extraction of your wisdom teeth is a very tedious and delicate process that should only be done by a dental surgeon or oral surgeons who are highly experienced and specially trained to do it.

Before the surgery is conducted, Dr. Pinho and his team of experts will explain to you on how to prepare for the extraction, and they will run a few tests to determine the best and most painless way to get it done.

Right before the procedure, you will be administered with local anaesthetics to numb the specific area where the tooth removal is going to take place. If you are removing more than one of your wisdom teeth, general anaesthesia may be used to help you go through the surgery with ease and comfort.

However, it is the post-surgery period that is going to be very crucial in determining how quick you can recover without any complications. To further help you recover after a wisdom tooth extraction procedure, here are a couple of things that you might need to do to speed up the healing process.

  • Follow the instructions of your surgeon and take your painkillers as prescribed.
  • Your mouth will be slightly numb after surgery so be extra careful not to bite the inside of your cheek, lips or tongue.
  • Do not engage in strenuous activities, physical activity will only increase bleeding.
  • Use an ice pack on the outside of your cheek during the first 24 hours so that you can reduce swelling. 
  • Try to avoid touching the area with your tongue or fingers.
  • If you are a smoker, refrain from smoking for at least 24 hours after the surgery. Smoking causes the recovery to slow down and could contaminate your healing gums.
  • Eat soft food, like pudding and soup for a couple of days. You can slowly add more solid foods to your diet as you recover.
  • After the first day, you can try to reduce the swelling by gently rinsing your mouth several times a day with warm salt water.
  • Avoid using a straw to drink. The sucking motion will loosen the blood clot and delay healing. 

Different people will experience varying healing time but it is important that you follow these simple steps after the surgery.

When you visit us for a consultation at our wisdom teeth removal clinic in Sydney, we will have a deeper chat with you to help you understand and get a clearer idea about the important steps that you should take before, during and after the procedure.

Is It Necessary to Have Your Wisdom Teeth Removed?

If you have ever experienced that nagging, uncomfortable feeling at the back of your mouth because of the growth of your wisdom teeth, then you know how painful it can be if it is left untreated.

Although wisdom teeth removal has become a very popular procedure in recent years, many people are still not too sure if it is necessary to get them extracted.

Wisdom teeth are medically called third molars and they usually appear between the ages of 16 – 25. The reason why it hurts when wisdom teeth are growing is because they may never fully erupt, and this leads to Pericoronitis, the inflammation of the gum partially covering the tooth that is trying to come out. Your gums will feel extremely swollen and sensitive during this time and you might find it very hard to close your mouth properly. Not only that, the exposed gum flap is susceptible to bacteria which could possibly cause major oral problems in the future.

The impacted wisdom tooth could grow at an awkward angle and will cause your entire teeth alignment to go out of place. If this happens, wisdom teeth removal is certainly necessary because the chances of developing complications will be much higher.

Even if you aren’t experiencing any pain during the eruption of the wisdom teeth, they might still cause the oral problems that are mentioned above; crowding, decay and infection.

So, is it really necessary for you to have your wisdom teeth removed? Well, in certain special cases you won’t need it but most people definitely do.

Wisdom tooth extraction is highly recommended for people who are facing these problems:
  • Can’t gain proper access to clean the third molars as part of a daily hygiene practice.
  • Crowding and malposition of the erupting wisdom tooth causes misalignment of the teeth.
  • Wisdom tooth still covered by a flap of swollen and tender flap of gum.

It is understandable that most people brush off the idea of having their wisdom teeth extracted because they are afraid of going through the procedure. Contrary to popular belief, the extraction does not hurt at all if you have an experienced and highly skilled oral surgeon doing it for you.

If you are unsure whether this procedure is right for you, take a trip down to our wisdom teeth removal clinic in Sydney, and get your teeth examined by Dr. Pinho and our team of highly qualified dental surgeons. Book your next appointment today by calling 1 800 WISDOM or book online at www.wisdomteethremovalsydney.com.au.
