What are wisdom teeth?
Wisdom teeth, you see, are our third molars. Usually, they're the last teeth to develop, popping up when we're somewhere between 17 and 25. Now, it's intriguing how genetics plays a part. Some of us don't get wisdom teeth at all. This happens mainly because our ancestors, over generations, have had smaller jaws incapable of accommodating these late bloomers. So yes, whether or not you'll acquire grinning wisdom teeth is somewhat genetically determined. Isn't that fascinating?
When wisdom tooth extraction is needed?
Symptoms of wisdom teeth coming in can be discomfort, swelling, and even bad breath. However, it's not all gloom. Sometimes, they fit in with no complications. On the other hand, if they're impacted or just causing discomfort, it's time to have them removed. No need to worry, as expert wisdom tooth removal services are available in The Bronx.
How's a wisdom tooth extracted?
Extracting wisdom teeth is a routine surgical procedure that starts with a local, sedation, or general anesthesia to make you comfortable. We then make a small incision in the gum tissue to expose the tooth and bone. If it's covered by bone, we remove the bone first. The wisdom tooth is often divided into sections to make the extraction process easier. Extraction time varies greatly, but most procedures take 20-45 minutes. You're in good hands with our experienced professionals.
Wisdom teeth removal aftercare
After we've removed your wisdom teeth, it's crucial for you to take it easy for a few days. Remember, resting is an integral part of your recovery process. When resting, make sure to prop your head up with pillows as lying flat may prolong healing. Moreover, don't indulge in strenuous activity because it may promote bleeding. While it's tempting to jump back into routine chores, delay them for a bit. Additionally, try to keep your mouth clean by gently rinsing with warm saline after 24 hours. Also, it's natural to see some swelling, however, applying a cold pack to the surgical area will help. If you're ever in doubt about your recovery progress, don't hesitate to reach out to us.
Food to eat after wisdom teeth removal
We've considered what's easy on your mouth post-wisdom teeth removal. Opt for soft foods like Brussels sprouts puree or a colorful fruit salad. They're both nutritious and gentle to your recovering gums. You can sip all kinds of soup, but beware hot temperatures. Stay refreshed with cold drinks, avoiding anything too acidic or sugary. It's all about comfort without compromise.
