At the Oral Surgery Center of Lighthouse Point, we understand that having your wisdom teeth removed can be a daunting experience. We are here to provide you with the information and resources you need to make sure your surgery goes as smoothly as possible.

What Are Wisdom Teeth?

Wisdom teeth are the third and final set of molars that most people get in their late teens or early twenties. These teeth are also known as third molars. For some people, wisdom teeth come in without causing any problems. However, for many others, wisdom teeth can cause a host of issues.

Signs You Need Your Wisdom Teeth Removed

There are a few signs that may indicate you need to have your wisdom teeth removed:

Your wisdom teeth are impacted. This means they are growing in at an angle and are not able to break through the gum line.

You have crowding in your mouth. Wisdom teeth can cause crowding of the other teeth in your mouth.

You have gum disease. Wisdom teeth that are difficult to clean can lead to gum disease.

You have decay in your wisdom teeth. If you have decay in your wisdom teeth, it can spread to the other teeth in your mouth.

Your wisdom teeth are causing pain. Impacted wisdom teeth can cause pain and discomfort.

The Wisdom Teeth Removal Process

Wisdom teeth removal is a relatively simple process. The first step is to numb the area around the wisdom teeth. This is done with local anesthesia. Once the area is numb, the dentist or oral surgeon will make an incision in the gum tissue to expose the wisdom teeth. The wisdom teeth are then removed, and the incisions are closed with stitches. The whole process takes about an hour.

After Wisdom Teeth Removal

After your wisdom teeth have been removed, it is important to take care of your mouth. You will need to eat soft foods for a few days and avoid hard or crunchy foods. You should also avoid straws, smoking, and spitting for at least a week. It is also important to brush and floss your teeth regularly to avoid infection.
