  1. Who should you consult to get your teeth removed? When you have to remove your wisdom teeth for one reason or other, who should you consult? A cosmetic/family dentist, periodontist or an oral surgeon? The answer is any one of them. While many of these professionals will have the necessary training to remove your teeth easily, an oral surgeon has specific training in the field of surgery. This includes wisdom tooth extraction, which they compete 4-year hospital-based training after completing their dentistry degree. Factors to decide upon: Any dentist can remove a normal tooth but if there is any complication you should consult a specialist. Here are some factors that might help you decide which dentist to choose for teeth extraction. The condition of your teeth The condition of your mouth is the most important among them, Nerve injury, constant bleeding, and infections, how badly your teeth are impacted and if the root is decayed are all

  2. determinate factors. These teeth can emerge in a wrong position unless a professional remove them before that point. To figure out the condition of your teeth the dentist will do an oral exam, which includes taking an X-ray of the infected tooth. The X-ray can give information about the position of teeth, its strength and the condition of the root. Your level of anxiety Anxiety can also be a deciding factor, and an oral surgeon can provide anesthesia so you could be at ease during the surgery. Your health condition The third deciding factor is your health condition, if you have ongoing health issues it is best to consult with a dental surgeon. Your dentist will advise you after reviewing the above information. If an extraction is right for you, the dentist will determine if you need an oral surgeon or a regular dentist will suffice. One question still tickling in our mind is, What is wisdom teeth and how it will be the problem of many people nowadays?

  3. Wisdom teeth or third molars are the last 4 out of 32 teeth to emerge in our mouth; they are at the back of your jaw, in the last corner. These teeth start emerging from the age of 17 to 25. The process is obviously uncomfortable and painful to some extent, but if you start to feel a lot of pain, and your gum is swollen or very red there might be some complication; see your dentist immediately.Sometimes it’s because you may have inherited a jaw size that’s too small for your tooth size; and generally speaking, the size of the human jaw has evolved to become smaller over time. If the room is lacking, the adjacent molar (that came in earlier) can interfere with the path of eruption — causing the wisdom tooth to come in at an odd angle. The wisdom tooth can hit up against that other tooth, possibly causing pain or damaging the adjacent tooth. This is known as “impaction.” Sometimes the wisdom tooth breaks only partway through the gum tissue, leaving a space beneath the gum line that’s almost impossible to clean, causing infection. A serious oral infection can jeopardize the survival of teeth and even spread to other parts of the body. Call us today Welcome to Compass Dental Associates in Taylors, SC!
