If wisdom teeth have not erupted completely and remain under the gums or in the bone, they must be removed before eruption. In this respect aif.ru said dentist Louise Avtandilyan.
“If the wisdom teeth have not fully erupted and are stuck under the gum or in the bone, an acute inflammatory process, edema or swelling of the cheek will probably develop,” writes Aif.ru.
Using computed tomography, you can find out the incorrect position of teeth if they have erupted. If wisdom teeth are already visible, growing sideways or horizontally, they need to be removed. This “figure eight” can displace other teeth and cause crowding.
If wisdom teeth are seriously damaged due to deep caries, pulpitis and cysts, they also need to be extracted. The orthodontist may also recommend this before treatment with braces or aligners so that the eruption of the “eights” does not affect the result of bite correction.
The doctor added that the tooth extraction procedure is absolutely painless, is performed under local anesthesia and takes about 15 seconds.
