San Diego people who have problems such as infection, cysts or tumors, tooth decay, or gum disease around a wisdom tooth are advised to get their teeth removed by affordable San Diego dentist, Dr. Fray Zerafat. If infections are present, surgery is delayed until the infection reduces. Antibiotics are prescribed to reduce infection and proceed with further treatment.
The surgical removal or tooth extraction of one or more wisdom teeth depends on the problem caused by the impacted teeth. Examination of an X-ray is the best diagnostic tool to identify the position and location of the teeth within the jaw. Sometimes improper relation of small jaw and large teeth can also cause impacted teeth; in such a case multiple impactions can be seen.
In some cases, where a wisdom tooth eruption is delayed because of the presence of thick fibrous flap, removal of the flap surgically will help in eruption of the tooth. However, this alternative is not suitable for everyone.
If the tooth doesn’t fully erupted with an opposing tooth, if the oral hygiene is not good, if the periodontal condition around the wisdom tooth is not the same as around adjacent teeth, then Dr. Zerafat the best San Diego Dentist recommends extraction. Some people have a misconception that wisdom tooth eruption causes anterior crowding. This is absolutely wrong. The erupted dentition will as a whole move medially and will cause a lot of post orthodontically treated people to have anterior crowding when they reach their late 20′s or 30′s.
For an erupted wisdom tooth, Dr. Fray Zerafat, Best San Diego Dentist will find it comfortable to extract a tooth within 3 to 4 minutes. If the tooth is impacted requiring elevation of a flap and either removal of bone and sectioning of the tooth, it can take up to 30 minutes per tooth depending on the tooth’s angulations, bone density, sinus and inferior alveolar nerve proximity. Healing time for such teeth will take an average 5 to 20 days for soft tissue depending on the number of incisions whether primary closure was needed, tissue management, and suture placement.
Wisdom teeth post operative pain varies from person to person, depending on the pain threshold. For extractions that don’t require an incision or remove of bone, then a couple of days of mild to moderate dull, achy sensations will be present. For those extractions that required any incisions or bone removal then, 3 to 7 days of moderate pain may be anticipated.
Dr. Fray Zerafat, the best San Diego Dentist advises narcotic Vicodin and sometimes either a tapering steroid or an antibiotic depending on the difficulty and infection of the extractions.
Tooth extraction is not something people are looking forward to but if you postpone a tooth extraction when needed, you’re just prolonging your pain. Dr. Fray Zerafat, San Diego Dentist will make the procedure as comfortable for you as possible and you’ll be glad when it’s done.
