What exactly are wisdom teeth?
Wisdom teeth are our third set of molars that usually come in when we’re between 17 to 25 years old. They're part of our natural oral health development. However, not everyone has them. In fact, about 45% of people lack one or more wisdom tooth. So, don't worry if you're part of that percentage - It's totally normal.
Is wisdom tooth extraction always necessary?
Signs of wisdom teeth coming in include gum swelling, pain, and difficulty opening your mouth. Sometimes, they cause problems like crowding or impaction. However, not everyone needs wisdom tooth extractions. We can provide comprehensive wisdom tooth extractions in Bothell if required. It's not always necessary, but when it is, you're in good hands.
What's the process for taking out wisdom teeth?
Removing wisdom teeth, especially deeply impacted ones, is a delicate process. First, we make a small incision in the gum tissue to expose the tooth. Sometimes, it's necessary to cut the tooth into smaller pieces to remove it safely. Don't worry, we're diligent about controlling any discomfort you might feel - your comfort is our priority. However, remember this: you're stronger than you think, and you'll handle it like a champ. A little discomfort now can save you from a lot of pain later. You've got this.
Aftercare instructions
After your wisdom teeth removal, we recognize that you might feel nervous about the recovery process. However, rest assured, it's typically quite straightforward. We advocate plenty of rest, avoiding strenuous activity for a few days, and using ice packs on your jaw to reduce any swelling. You might experience a bit of discomfort, which is normal, but if pain persists or symptoms worsen, please contact us immediately. Lastly, remember to keep the area clean; rinsing with warm salt water can help. We're with you throughout this healing process; your wellbeing matters to us.
Foods to eat after having your wisdom teeth extracted
After wisdom teeth removal, we recommend easy-to-swallow foods. You're safe with pureed soups, minus chunky ingredients. Steamed clams, chopped finely, enrich the protein content, however, avoid eating them whole. Consider pureed plums for sweetness and fiber. Remember, it's essential to favour soft, hydrating foods over hard, sticky ones for a smooth recovery. On the other hand, avoid acidic, spicy, and hot foods that irritate the gums.
Typical cost of wisdom tooth extraction in Bothell
We understand the cost of wisdom teeth removal can be quite daunting right? However, it varies. You'll typically find that the removal of impacted wisdom teeth is a bit more costly compared to those that are fully erupted. This is because impacted teeth can be trickier to remove. But don't sweat it. We do offer flexible payment plans to help lighten the load. Remember, we're here to lend you a hand and make your experience as smooth as a polished tooth surface.
