Best Dentist in Noida - Should wisdom tooth be removed?


Best Dentist in Noida

Via a recent Instagram post, pop diva Ariana Grande became the latest young celebrity to publicly acknowledge a dental milestone: having her wisdom teeth removed. Will "wisdom teeth removal" become a new trending topic on social media? We aren’t sure — but we can explain a bit about the procedure and why many young adults may need it.



Technically called the “third molars,” wisdom teeth usually begin to emerge from the gums between the age of 17 and 25 — presumably, around the same time that a certain amount of wisdom emerges, that’s why they have been called WISDOM TEETH. Most people have four of these big molars, which are located all the way in the back of the mouth, on the left and right sides of the both upper and lower jaws. But when wisdom tooth begins to appear, there’s often a problem: Many people don’t have enough space in their jaws to accommodate them. Wisdom teeth often do not come in or they only partially break through the gum. Up to 80% of young people in Europe have at least one wisdom tooth that hasn't broken through. When these molars don’t have sufficient space to fully erupt (emerge), they are said to be “IMPACTED.” This is more common in the lower jaw than it is in the upper jaw. 
Does wisdom tooth needs removal?
Some people believe that removing wisdom teeth is a waste of time if they aren't causing any problems. Others think that the teeth will only cause trouble and have no real function anyway. The decision about whether or not to have wisdom teeth pulled will mainly depend on whether they are already causing trouble or whether it is highly likely that they will in the future. There are actually good reasons to carefully consider whether you should have them removed. It has now become common to only recommend pulling wisdom teeth if they have already caused problems or are highly likely to.
Impacted teeth can cause a number of serious problems: it can push on the neighboring teeth which can lead to tooth movement, pain, an increased potential for bacterial infections, gum diseases and even the formation of cysts (pockets of infection below the gum line), which can eventually lead to tooth and bone loss.

Depending on the location of the tooth, removal of wisdom tooth can be done by general dentist or best is to get it done by oral & Maxillofacial surgeon. Wisdom tooth extraction is a routine, in-office procedure that is usually performed under local anesthesia or “conscious sedation,” a type of anesthesia where the patient remains conscious (able to breathe normally and respond to stimuli), but is free from any pain or distress. Anti-anxiety medications may also be given, especially for those who are apprehensive about dental procedures.
