A wisdom tooth is extracted to correct an actual problem or to prevent problems that may come up in the future
Wisdom teeth are the latest molar teeth in our mouths. Because there is usually no place for wisdom teeth to settle in the jaw, the teeth remain embeded or half-embedded in the bone. The gingiva around the half-embeded teeth, especially due to inadequate brushing, becomes susceptible to infection. In addition, due to their position, wisdom teeth can cause tooth decay, pain and displacement in teeth by applying pressure on the front tooth. Therefore, it may be necessary to extract these teeth.
Wisdom tooth extraction is one of the most common operation that we do at our dental clinic. You should take an appointment for this surgery. After clinic and radiological examination, you will be informed about the operation. Patients can often return to their homes and relax after these operations.
