Wisdom Teeth Removal

 

Wisdom Tooth Removal

Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to erupt and generally appear in our mouths in our late teens. We have four wisdom teeth at the back of the mouth — two on the bottom, two on the top.

Many wisdom teeth erupt without any problems. Others can cause issues mainly if they have not emerged through the gums properly and are called Impacted (partially erupted). An impacted wisdom tooth can result in problems like jaw and tooth pain, nasty taste and possibly damage to other teeth. 

Often, a partially erupted wisdom tooth causes no apparent or immediate problems. Many people are unaware of their tooth impaction and having at least one impacted wisdom tooth is almost to be expected. But beware; because they are tricky to clean, they may be more susceptible to tooth decay and gum disease than other teeth are.

Having your wisdom teeth assessed by our expert at Gipsy lane: Dr Raj (the oral surgeon at the Royal Berkshire), makes perfect sense and can help you to avoid future issues and put your mind at rest.

How does emergency wisdom tooth removal work?

Although wisdom tooth removal is so popular, if you’ve never experienced a tooth extraction before, then you may be unsure as to what to expect from the procedure. Here at Gipsy Lane, we put your comfort first, so we never remove a wisdom tooth without local anaesthetic to ensure you’re pain-free during the procedure. 

The first step will be to explain the procedure, so you’re fully aware of what to expect, and then we will provide the local anaesthetic, and allow this time to work before we begin. This step ensures you won’t feel any pain throughout your time with us, but a little pressure is to be expected.

We may need to make a small incision in the gum in order to remove the tooth, or we may need to break the tooth into smaller pieces if it’s proving difficult to get out whole. This procedure usually takes less than half an hour, but can sometimes take longer.

You will be issued with appropriate pain relief to help with the recovery process, as wisdom tooth removal will lead to swelling and some pain and discomfort initially. You may also experience some mild bruising that should go after a week or two.

If you’ve any concerns or questions about your treatment, our team are here to help address all of your concerns.
