Signs You Need Wisdom Tooth Removal
If you are experiencing any of these signs or symptoms, it is advisable to consult with our dentists for a thorough evaluation. We can assess your wisdom teeth and determine if extraction is necessary to prevent further complications and promote optimal oral health.
Pain and Discomfort
Persistent or recurring pain in the back of the mouth, jaw, or surrounding areas can indicate problems with your wisdom teeth. This discomfort may be caused by impacted or infected wisdom teeth.
Swelling and Redness
Swelling, tenderness, and redness around the gums at the back of your mouth are common signs that your wisdom teeth may be causing issues. These symptoms can be indicative of an infection or inflammation.
Jaw Stiffness
If you experience difficulty or stiffness in fully opening or closing your mouth, it could be a sign that your wisdom teeth are causing problems. This could be due to impaction or misalignment.
Gum Infections
Recurring gum infections or inflammation around the wisdom teeth can be a sign that these teeth are causing problems. Symptoms may include swelling, tenderness, pus formation, or an unpleasant taste or odor in the mouth.
Crowding and Misalignment
Wisdom teeth can exert pressure on neighboring teeth, causing crowding and misalignment. If you notice changes in the alignment of your teeth or have difficulty with your bite, it may be an indication that your wisdom teeth need to be removed.
Tooth Decay and Cavities
Due to their location at the back of the mouth, wisdom teeth can be challenging to clean effectively. This can lead to an increased risk of tooth decay, cavities, and gum disease. If you are experiencing recurrent cavities or decay in the area of your wisdom teeth, removal may be necessary.
Sinus Problems
Impacted or infected wisdom teeth in the upper jaw can sometimes cause sinus pain, pressure, or congestion. If you have unexplained sinus issues, it may be worth considering wisdom tooth removal as a potential solution.
