There are many reasons why you may need an Oral Surgeon, you may have a dental emergency or it may be that your wisdom teeth are causing you pain and that you may require them to be removed.
There are many reasons why wisdom teeth can become impacted resulting in necessary removal:
- The tooth has grown at a right angle and is laying within the jawbone
- There isn’t enough space for the tooth to grow through
- The tooth hasn’t broken through the gum
- The tooth has grown towards the second molar
Wisdom tooth pain can often come on unexpectedly from an impacted wisdom tooth and could cause a number of symptoms to occur including:
· Pain in the tooth
· Swollen gums
· Bleeding gums
· Swelling to the tooth and jaw
· An unpleasant taste in your mouth
· Headache
· Infection
· An abscess
Whilst some people may feel it’s not necessary to partake in wisdom teeth removal as they aren’t interfering in their health, statistics actually prove that it is better to get wisdom teeth removed early as a preventative measure to the teeth becoming impacted. This can lead to the prevention of issues such as painful cysts, tooth decay resulting coupled with an unpleasant taste and gum disease.
It’s also worth investing in an oral surgeon who can perform the surgery to the highest level, whilst understanding patient needs and taking affordability into account. Payment plans are available from most professional oral surgeons to ensure you are getting the right treatment without worrying about the cost.
When choosing an oral surgeon who will be proficient in the process of removal, it is best to ensure they follow the right course of treatment for a simple and relatively pain free procedure.
