What exactly are wisdom teeth?
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last set of our teeth to develop, typically appearing in our late teens or early twenties. Often, we have four - one in each corner of the mouth. However, not everyone's come in normally. They may lack room to grow properly and be misaligned, causing discomfort. Some people may have no issues, but for others, regular checkups can help monitor if there's any problem developing.
Is wisdom tooth extraction always necessary?
Symptoms of wisdom teeth coming in include jaw pain, redness, swelling, and difficulty in opening your mouth. There's no universal need to remove them; however, if they're causing discomfort or are prone to decay, it's often recommended. We offer a renowned wisdom teeth surgery service in Union, ensuring swift and careful extractions that safeguard your oral health. Remember, timely actions can prevent serious issues.
How do you take out wisdom teeth?
Extracting wisdom teeth, especially impacted ones, calls for some surgical finesse. We begin by creating an opening in the gum tissue overlaying the tooth. It's like cutting a path through a dense forest to the hidden treasure, only our treasure is your rogue wisdom tooth. Once accessed, we sometimes have to section the tooth, breaking it into manageable pieces. Sounds gnarly, huh? On the contrary, it's quite strategic and meticulous. You might even compare it to a well-orchestrated symphony where the ebb and flow seamlessly intertwine for an optimal outcome. Tricky roots or bone also might require removal to ensure a smooth extraction, like clearing pesky weeds from a flourishing garden. It's all part of the process, and together, we can tackle those bothersome wisdom teeth with precision.
Wisdom teeth removal aftercare

Keep up with prescribed medications, maintaining a clean oral environment, and most importantly, give it time. Remember, it's not a race, it's a marathon, and we are in it together.
Foods to eat after having your wisdom teeth extracted
After wisdom teeth removal, it's important to keep our diet gentle, especially avoiding spicy foods as they may irritate the surgical sites. We should favor soft, easy-to-chew meals like creamed barley or a moist polenta cake. Warm - not hot - drinks are also encouraged. Just remember, these dietary precautions are temporary, and you'll be back to your regular meals shortly.
