What are wisdom teeth?
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last teeth to develop and appear in our mouths, usually between the ages of 17 and 21- this stage often correlates with the onset of maturity; hence the term 'wisdom'. They're considered a type of molar. While most of us get them, it's possible some people may never develop wisdom teeth. Like other molars, they're used for grinding and chewing food.
When wisdom tooth extraction is needed?
In Plainview, when your wisdom teeth come in, you may experience pain, swelling, or an unpleasant taste in your mouth. These symptoms might indicate a need for our professional wisdom teeth removal services, particularly if there's decay or infection impacting your overall oral health. However, we also recommend removal when they're causing crowding or misalignment. You're in good hands with us, we promise a comfortable experience.
Impacted wisdom teeth removal
We, as your trusted oral surgeons, handle wisdom teeth removal with absolute care. Imagine you're a sculptor, delicately working around a masterpiece. Similarly, we gently dislodge your wisdom tooth, ensuring minimal disturbance to the surrounding bone. Yet, despite our best efforts, some bone movement is unavoidable, much like a tree's roots slightly displacing the soil around it. Remember, though, it's a fleeting disturbance, meticulously managed for your ultimate comfort and wellbeing. You're in expert hands, so fear not the journey ahead.
Wisdom tooth healing
Recovering from a wisdom teeth removal surgery could vary; it's a journey though, that we help navigate. Initially, you might experience discomfort while the wound begins to heal. Ensuring you rest, limiting strenuous activity, keeps healing on track. You'll heal more each day, but it's normal to have residual soreness or slight bleeding. If anything feels off or you're concerned, we are here for you. Remember, it's a process with positive outcomes.
Food to eat after wisdom teeth removal
After wisdom teeth removal, you're best served eating soft, easy-to-chew foods like overripe pears or smooth cucumber puree. While it's appealing to soothe discomfort with icy or steamy treats, it's best to stick with meals that are lukewarm. We know that steaming soup or frosty ice cream may tempt you, but extreme temperatures can provoke irritation, causing unwanted discomfort. We care and want you to feel better soon.
Wisdom teeth removal cost in Plainview
In Plainview, as in most places, the cost for wisdom teeth removal varies, however, it's usually more economical to have all four removed at once. Oral surgeons often base their fees on the complexity of the situation rather than the number of teeth removed. Therefore, you might spend less time under anesthesia and miss fewer days off work or school if you opt for a single session. It's a classic case of 'two birds, one stone'.
Urgent wisdom tooth extraction in Plainview
Despite discomfort from a wisdom tooth, urgent care is often unnecessary unless the pain is severe, impacting your daily routine. A walk-in visit to a wisdom tooth surgeon in Plainview might help alleviate your concerns. However, pinpointing TMJ, in contrast, presents distinct symptoms like a clicking sound, jaw tenderness, or difficulty opening the mouth. So, if you're experiencing these, it's likely TMJ and not wisdom tooth pain you're dealing with. Remember, we're always here to help you grasp this.
