Should you get your wisdom teeth removed, even if you’re not experiencing any pain or problems? In most cases, the answer is yes. That’s because properly aligned wisdom teeth are a rarity. More often than not, wisdom teeth create issues as they start to erupt--growing in crooked or only partially emerging—or they become impacted and compromise the gum, bone and surrounding teeth. Cyst and tumors could even form around an impact wisdom tooth and require involved and costly surgery.
To prevent these and subsequent problems, wisdom tooth removal should be completed proactively. The procedure is often simple and straight forward. Sedation and anesthesia eliminates any pain and discomfort. After the wisdom tooth removal, you will need a day of rest and basic aftercare, which may include medication and compliance with a soft diet as not to compromise the healing process. A follow up appointment may be needed to remove stitches and assess the health of the gum.
