Visiting the dentist is extremely annoying when you know you have an issue that needs to be addressed. Wisdom teeth can be particularly tenacious, causing pain both before and after they’re removed. Some lucky people have their wisdom teeth come in at an angle that’s not severe enough to cause any discomfort or pain. Third molars should be checked often because they present a risk for many dental issues.

Complications can happen with any dental procedure, including wisdom teeth removal. These risks are determined by many factors, including your dentist’s skill level and how effectively you follow the recovery directions given to you by your dentist. Infections are one of the most common kinds of complications when having wisdom teeth removed, and are worse in patients who’re smokers. Besides nicotine and also other cigarette chemicals, food and bacteria can get trapped in and close to your wisdom teeth sockets and cause infection or other dental diseases.

Dry sockets occur at a rate of 2% for general tooth removal surgeries. That rate jumps to 30%, however, following extraction of wisdom teeth. Dry socket isn’t counted as an infection and it’s going to not have the regular signs such as fever or swelling.

Wisdom teeth can cause pain because they tear through the gums to become exposed. Similarly, if a wisdom tooth emerges at an odd angle, other teeth can develop pain and sensitivity. Though you may not be experiencing any problem right now, at some point in future you may incur some pain and discomfort. You should also bear in mind that you could relieve some of the pain associated with wisdom teeth using natural remedies, OTC pain medicine, but these solutions are only temporary.

Nerve damage is a possibility if you make use of the wrong dentists. Most commonly, the symptoms are pain or numbness in surrounding areas. In certain cases, patients can have permanent nerve damage. A nerve damage that you get after the removal of your third molar can be resolved through root canal therapy or endodontic treatment.

If you have infected wisdom teeth and neglect to have them removed, the infections can spread throughout your mouth to your tongue, throat, or cheek. You may even get an infection in your throat which will damage your swallowing ability. Neglected, oral infections can become very serious and can affect other aspects of your health.
