Pericoronitis – Risks & Reason

Wisdom teeth, the last set of molars, usually begin to erupt during the late teens and early twenties. When there is not enough space in the jawbone to adopt the new set of teeth, they erupt partially or never break through.
A partially erupted wisdom tooth leads to pericoronitis which is the inflammation of gum tissue surrounding the tooth. When left untreated, it may lead to severe oral health complications. Thus, the dentist who offers Wisdom Teeth Removal in Sydney provides some necessary facts to know about pericoronitis.

What is Pericoronitis?
Partially erupted wisdom tooth can create a flap of gum tissue near the tooth. This can trap food leftovers and plaque leading to the inflammation of gum tissue surrounding the tooth, known as pericoronitis. It irritates the gums. When left untreated, the inflammation becomes severe and can spread to the jaw, cheeks, and the neck causing major health risks. One of the finest and permanent solutions for this problem is the extraction of partially erupted Wisdom teeth in Sydney.

What are the Risks with Pericoronitis?
Pericoronitis not only causes pain and irritation but also leads to a high risk of infection. This can be dangerous, when left untreated, can be life-threating. Because of this, pericoronitis is considered as such a serious oral issue.

Usually, pericoronitis affects the wisdom teeth. When a tooth partially erupts, a flap is created under the gums for the food particles and plaque to accumulate. Since wisdom teeth are the final set of teeth in the mouth, it’s really difficult to reach while cleaning. Improper cleaning leads to severe infections. Thus, it’s really good to have the partially erupted Wisdom Teeth Removal in Sydney.

What are the Symptoms of Pericoronitis?
  • Throbbing pain and swollen gum tissue in the areas near the affected tooth.
  • When the condition becomes worse, the pain may affect your chewing and biting ability.
  • Discharge of pus from the gum near the affected tooth.
  • A bad breathe and sore taste in the mouth.
How to Treat Pericoronitis?
When you experience any of the above symptoms, make an appointment with your dentist who offers the reasonable Wisdom teeth removal cost in Sydney. He/she will examine the growth of your wisdom teeth, whether they are coming in or partially erupted. Also, periodic X-rays are taken to determine the alignment of the wisdom teeth. The dentist also pays attention to the symptoms such as swelling or infection.

The major goal of the treatment is to eradicate the signs and symptoms causing irritation. The treatment depends on the severity of the symptoms, whether the disease is confined to the teeth and surrounding tissue, or else it has spread to neighbouring soft tissues in the mouth and neck. When the infection is severe, then, the dental professional suggests having your impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth removed!
