Wisdom teeth seem to have troubled many people. So, is it a useful tooth?
Let's talk about wisdom teeth first The wisdom teeth we often talk about are actually the third molars (most people have first molars and second molars), commonly known as wisdom teeth. The formation of four wisdom teeth, like other teeth, all started from the upper and lower ibis, but in the end they all grew from the molars in the mouth. Wisdom teeth are formed at the age of 9, crowns are formed at the age of 14, and they grow in the mouth at the end of adolescence.
However, not everyone will have wisdom teeth, or all four will grow together. Moreover, even if it is long, many people have pulled it out.
Wisdom teeth to be extracted
Many people often ask: should wisdom teeth be pulled out? Usually, dentists will recommend the removal of wisdom teeth for the following reasons:
1. Tooth decay: If wisdom teeth suffer from tooth decay, we recommend pulling them out, except for simple tooth decay with shallow occlusal surface, those adjacent teeth that need good skills, and those with deep tooth decay or even root canal treatment, so as to prevent future troubles.
2. Adjacent tooth invasion: Usually the patient does not know, but is diagnosed by the dentist with X-ray. Usually, wisdom teeth don't have enough space to germinate, but they will fall on the second molar, which makes the second molar difficult to clean and even partially absorbed by the teeth, bringing discomfort or toothache to patients.
3. Lack of space: wisdom teeth are in a state of disappearance in the history of human evolution. Therefore, the dental arch is getting smaller and smaller, and the lack of space is very common. Swelling and pain can be felt most when sprouting. Many people decide to have their wisdom teeth removed because they can't stand the pain.
4. Cleaning is not easy: due to lack of space, wisdom teeth often grow crooked, which often makes it difficult to clean teeth and lead to tooth decay.
5. No gnashing of teeth: As mentioned above, not everyone will have four wisdom teeth. Therefore, on the opposite side of wisdom teeth, if there is no competitive wisdom teeth occlusion, sometimes wisdom teeth will erupt excessively, affecting occlusion.
6. Impacted tooth: Usually this is the most annoying one. Dentists will find it difficult to repair, but patients may not feel it, so they ignore it. This type of tooth is usually buried in alveolar bone. If it hurts, or a lesion is diagnosed, it needs to be removed.
Preservable wisdom teeth
After extracting wisdom teeth, you may still have questions: If there are no symptoms, is it unnecessary to extract them?
If you are in the position of a doctor, he will generally advise you to unplug it to avoid future troubles, so it is a painful and lifelong immunity. However, if you think wisdom teeth are not in the way, then you can decide whether to pull them out or not.
What kind of wisdom teeth are worth keeping?
1. The position is relatively correct, and it is expected to explode normally.
2. There is no history of inflammation and pain in the soft tissue around the crown of wisdom teeth, and there is no dental caries in wisdom teeth.
3. Wisdom teeth with molars.
You need to know when you pull out wisdom teeth
If you want to pull out wisdom teeth, you must find a professional dentist. What should I pay attention to after tooth extraction?
1. Usually, the longer the extraction time, the longer the swelling time, especially for impacted teeth.
All blood and saliva should be swallowed within one hour. Don't rinse your mouth to help blood clots and wounds heal.
Ice for one hour after going home, and then use hot compress if you feel uncomfortable.
If you have a fever, you can call in sick the next day.
Question 2: What about toothache in wisdom teeth? 1, wisdom teeth grow normally, and the gums will feel pain. Strictly speaking, this is not a toothache, but it will pass with a little patience. 2, wisdom teeth are horizontally long, other teeth are upward long, but wisdom teeth will be overbearing. Once they touch the tooth next to them, toothache will happen naturally. If wisdom teeth look like this, they must be pulled out as soon as possible. 3, wisdom teeth "dwelling" in the tooth flesh, sometimes you can't see wisdom teeth at all, but you still feel toothache, which is basically caused by this reason. First, after growing wisdom teeth, you should check yourself to see if toothache is accompanied by gum swelling and pain. If this happens, pay attention to prevent inflammation. Thoroughly clean wisdom teeth every day to avoid toothache caused by food residue. Second, after growing wisdom teeth, you should pay attention to reducing fire and drying, and don't eat fried, fried, baked and other foods that get angry. So as not to aggravate the toothache. Third, if there is inflammation, you should immediately reduce inflammation and relieve pain.
