Wisdom teeth in the end or not? If there are these 6 situations, please unplug them as soon as possible, otherwise there will be endless troubles
Wisdom teeth usually grow out between the ages of 16 and 30, because at this stage, people's minds have matured, so they are called wisdom teeth, which have nothing to do with people's IQ. Everyone's wisdom teeth are different. For example, some people grow four wisdom teeth in a row, and some people don't grow any of them. Some people's wisdom teeth grow in a very positive position, and they can even bite food normally...
So should wisdom teeth be extracted? Under what circumstances do you need to pull it out? Below, Liangjian Haoyaojun will list 6 situations where wisdom teeth need to be pulled out. Let’s see if you have one?
In most cases, the dentist will advise you to remove it, because wisdom teeth are the natural enemies of oral health. If you have the following symptoms, then Liangjian Haoyaojun recommends that short-term pain is worse than long-term pain——
pull!
① Recurrent inflammation
Because the position of wisdom teeth growth is not correct, there may be a gap between wisdom teeth and other molars, and this place is usually difficult to clean with brushing teeth, and there are often food residues. Over time, it is easy to induce pericoronitis. Pericoronitis is swollen and painful, and recurs because food residues will remain repeatedly. Therefore, it is best to wait for the anti-inflammatory to remove the wisdom teeth once and for all.
② Wisdom teeth are decayed
Wisdom teeth have deep caries (commonly known as caries, tooth decay), or the position is skewed, the cavity appears on the adjacent surface of the tooth, and the position is deep, etc., which cannot be cleaned by brushing and rinsing. It is best to pull it out, otherwise it may cause neuralgia and pulpitis.
③ Disharmony with neighboring teeth
Wisdom teeth have insufficient eruption space and cannot form a good adjoining relationship with adjacent teeth, which is always the most likely to cause tooth plugging, resulting in adjacent tooth caries or alveolar bone resorption.
If things go on like this, the original healthy teeth will be damaged, and then both teeth will be damaged, which will greatly affect the chewing function.
④ The upper and lower wisdom teeth did not match successfully
Wisdom teeth on the same side have not grown or have been pulled out. If there is no competing wisdom tooth to bite, sometimes the wisdom tooth will erupt excessively and elongate, even to the extent that it directly bites on the same side of the gum, repeatedly biting the gum, serious affect the bite.
⑤ Wisdom teeth must be extracted for orthodontics
To align the teeth and ensure the effectiveness of orthodontic treatment, it is generally considered to extract wisdom teeth or other less important teeth, such as bicuspids, which are the teeth behind the canine teeth.
If the space occupied by wisdom teeth causes misalignment and deformation of other teeth, it is even more necessary to extract them.
⑥ cause other diseases
The eruption position of the wisdom teeth is not normal, causing the occlusal relationship to be disordered and affecting the normal activity of the temporomandibular joint; it may also cause the eruption cyst of the jaw bone and damage the jaw bone.
Generally speaking, wisdom teeth with hidden dangers are best extracted first. You can go to the dental hospital to take a dental film to see where your wisdom teeth grow. If it is not impacted, it is best. If it is, then extract it as soon as possible.
