As Ilke Oral and Dental Health Clinic operating in Izmir, we evaluate cases where wisdom teeth often do not fit into the jaw structure and offer solutions. Pain, abscess formation, and various discomforts that can occur with the eruption of wisdom teeth are addressed by our expert dentists with effective treatment and extraction methods.
What are Wisdom Teeth?
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the third and final set of molars that appear in the back of the jaw between the ages of 17 and 25. They typically erupt in sets of four, two in the upper jaw and two in the lower jaw. As Ilke Oral and Dental Health Clinic in Izmir, we are dedicated to identifying and providing solutions for problems that can arise when wisdom teeth do not erupt properly into the jawbone.
Impacted Wisdom Tooth Problems and Solutions
Impacted wisdom teeth, often lacking sufficient space in the jawbone, can lead to various problems. At Ilke Oral and Dental Health Clinic, our expert dentists use radiographs and thorough examinations to identify impacted wisdom teeth. This allows for early detection of problems and the creation of a treatment plan.
Wisdom Tooth Extraction and Surgery
Wisdom tooth extraction is determined based on the tooth’s position. While fully erupted teeth can be extracted with a standard procedure, semi-impacted or fully impacted teeth may require surgical intervention. Ilke Oral and Dental Health Clinic in Izmir, with its dentists and expert staff, efficiently performs wisdom tooth extractions and surgeries.
Post-Wisdom Tooth Surgery Care
After surgery, pain relievers and other medications should be used regularly as instructed by the patient’s dentist. As Ilke Oral and Dental Health Clinic, we provide patients with personalized care recommendations to minimize potential swelling and pain after surgery.
