Wisdom tooth removal in Mexico, Los Algodones

Wisdom tooth extraction is a surgical procedure to remove the last teeth from the back of the mouth. It is a very common procedure and is performed in a large number of adults since these molars tend to develop at an angle and push the other teeth. These teeth are inherited from our ancestors and currently have no special function.

Our specialists in our dental office will examine you to determine if your wisdom teeth have enough room to come out or if they should be removed to avoid future complications.

Why is it recommended to have a surgical extraction for impacted wisdom teeth?

The problem with wisdom teeth is that they grow in the farthest back of the oral cavity, so, commonly, these teeth don’t have enough space to grow; they can displace the third molars and the rest of the teeth, while also affecting the occlusion and the appearance of your denture. These cases are called impacted wisdom teeth and can be symptomatic or asymptomatic.

In another case, wisdom teeth can fully erupt, but being so far into the mouth, it’s very hard to brush them properly, so the plaque, tartar, and bacteria build up, creating a rich environment for cavities in all surrounding teeth. No matter how good you brush your teeth, these are hard to clean.

Impacted wisdom teeth can cause discomfort, pain, and complications in oral health. It can also cause damage to the bone, gum infections and gum disease, and swelling.

For these reasons, many patients decide to remove them with a tooth extraction surgery even before they begin to emerge or before they cause any discomfort.

Wisdom teeth extraction aftercare

After the surgery, you will have to take some special care to avoid bleeding and help the healing process without complications. These are some recommendations for the recovery period.

Control pain and inflammation with over-the-counter medications such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. The dentist may tell you to take some antibiotics to prevent infection. You can use an ice pack to reduce swelling around the extraction site.
The first day after the surgery, rinse your mouth only with a glass of warm salt water after eating. Avoid brushing and touching the wound for the first 72 hours.
Avoid vigorous physical activity to prevent the blood clot from becoming loose. Also, rest with your head up to prevent bleeding.
During the first 24 hours, only eat soft foods at room temperature. Soft foods won’t cause damage or hurt the wound. Avoid beverages that are too cold or too hot. Don’t use straws.
Avoid drinking alcoholic beverages and don’t smoke until the wound is completely healed to prevent infection.
