Extractions and Wisdom Teeth Removal
If you’re noticing discomfort, swelling, or pain at the back of your mouth, it may be time to consider wisdom tooth removal. At Smilessence Dental Clinic, we offer clear explanations and supportive treatment options for extractions, especially when it comes to problematic wisdom teeth. Our aim is to guide you through the process with confidence and comfort.
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, usually appear in your late teens or early twenties. For some people, these teeth come in smoothly and cause no issues. But for many others, wisdom teeth can become impacted—stuck under the gums or growing in at an angle—leading to complications such as:
Gum pain or swelling
Jaw stiffness
Infection around the tooth
Pressure on nearby teeth
Difficulty in cleaning the area, which can lead to decay
When these problems arise, wisdom tooth removal becomes a recommended solution to prevent further discomfort and protect your oral health.
Not every tooth that causes discomfort needs to be removed, but certain situations make extraction the best choice. These include:
Impacted wisdom teeth
When the tooth does not fully emerge from the gum or grows sideways.
Severe tooth decay
If the decay cannot be treated with a filling or root canal.
Crowding
Sometimes, removing a tooth makes space for orthodontic treatment or prevents shifting of other teeth.
Infection or gum problems
If a tooth contributes to ongoing gum disease or recurrent infections, removal may be advised.
Every patient’s needs are different, but here’s a general overview of what happens during a typical visit for wisdom tooth removal in Wagholi at Smilessence Dental Clinic:
Dr. Kunal Bonde will start with a full evaluation of your teeth and jaw. X-rays help assess the position of the wisdom teeth and whether removal is necessary.
Depending on whether the tooth is fully erupted or impacted, we will explain the type of extraction involved. The goal is to keep you well-informed and prepared.
Simple Extraction: When the tooth is visible and accessible, it can be gently removed without surgical steps.
Surgical Extraction: For impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth, a small incision is made in the gum to access and remove the tooth.
Local anesthesia is typically used, and we’ll discuss any additional steps based on your comfort level.
After the removal, you’ll receive clear instructions to manage recovery, including how to keep the area clean, what foods to eat, and what activities to avoid temporarily.
Healing usually takes a few days, with most people returning to normal routines within 2–3 days. To help recovery:
Apply ice packs to reduce swelling
Eat soft foods like yogurt, soup, or mashed potatoes
Avoid smoking or using straws
Keep the mouth clean, but avoid vigorous rinsing for the first 24 hours
Any discomfort can typically be managed with over-the-counter medications, and follow-up appointments are scheduled if needed.
Early removal of problematic wisdom teeth can help you avoid future dental issues. Some of the benefits include:
Relief from persistent pain and pressure
Lower risk of infection or gum issues
Preventing misalignment of nearby teeth
Better access for brushing and flossing
Even if you’re not currently in pain, regular checkups can catch problems early and allow for timely removal when necessary.
