FAQs - Wisdom Tooth

1. What is a wisdom tooth?

Wisdom teeth are the third set of molars that usually develop at the back of the mouth, often emerging during the late teens or early twenties.

Treatment may be recommended when a wisdom tooth is impacted, causing pain, infection, decay, gum problems, cyst formation, or damage to nearby teeth.

Common symptoms include pain or swelling at the back of the mouth, difficulty opening the jaw, gum tenderness, bad breath, and discomfort while chewing. Some impacted wisdom teeth may cause no symptoms.

The procedure is performed under appropriate anesthesia to minimize pain during treatment. Some swelling, soreness, or discomfort can occur afterward and generally improves as healing progresses.

Initial recovery commonly takes several days, although healing time varies depending on the tooth’s position and the complexity of the procedure. Following post-operative instructions can support a smooth recovery.
