Wisdom Teeth Removal in Kamloops

Are you suffering from the eruption of wisdom teeth? Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, erupt between 18-25 years of age, while some people may not even have wisdom teeth. Generally, one, two, or a maximum of four wisdom teeth can occur at the back of your mouth.

 

When the wisdom teeth have not erupted completely, it can lead to several dental issues like infection, severe pain, swollen mouth, or inflamed gums. Lack of ample space in the mouth can result in the shifting of adjacent teeth or the growth of wisdom teeth at an odd angle.

Why Is It Important to Remove Your Wisdom Teeth?

Your wisdom teeth may not be troubling you currently. However, in future, they may give rise to dental complications if not extracted. It is highly recommended to take your dentist’s advice on whether you should remove wisdom teeth or not. Listed below are reasons why it is important to get rid of wisdom teeth early:

​

  • Impacted wisdom teeth
    When wisdom teeth are partially grown, they are called impacted wisdom teeth. The partially erupted wisdom teeth breed bacteria that can result in infection and inflammation of the gums. To avoid this, extract wisdom teeth.
     

  • Prevent cavities
    Since wisdom teeth are formed at the back of the mouth, it is hard to clean them thoroughly. Lack of proper cleaning can lead to cavities spreading to adjacent teeth.
     

  • Sinus problems
    The growth of wisdom teeth can give rise to severe problems in the sinus. It is better to extract the wisdom teeth early to avoid affecting the sinus cavities.
     

  • Prevent overcrowding
    The growth of new wisdom teeth can overcrowd your mouth and result in partially erupted wisdom teeth or misalignment of adjacent teeth. To prevent overcrowding, the extraction of wisdom teeth is necessary.

Procedure

Dental procedures such as wisdom teeth extraction can often seem daunting. The fear can prevent you from getting the dental care that you need to maintain your oral health. Learning about what actually goes on during a wisdom teeth removal can alleviate your anxiety. The following are the steps involved in the procedure:

​

Anesthesia: We will administer local anesthesia near the site of extraction to prevent any pain during the extraction. You will be awake during the procedure, but not feel any pain. Our dentist will discuss possible anesthesia options for you during the initial consultation. This can include general or sedation anesthesia as well.

 

Procedure: The process of removal involves the following steps:

​

  • Making an incision in the gums to reveal the tooth and bone

  • Removal of the bone that is obstructing access to the tooth root

  • Dividing tooth into pieces, if required

  • Cleaning the site of extraction and removing any debris

  • Adding stitches to the site to encourage healing, if required

  • Applying a gauze over the site to minimize bleeding and urging clot formation

 

After the procedure: After the procedure is over, we will advise you on pain management, swelling, and bruising. We advise resting during the remainder of the day and eating only soft foods during the first 24 hours.
