Wisdom tooth removal in Muscat
Wisdom teeth are the last teeth at the back of the mouth. Many cause no trouble. When one is painful, infected or pushing on the tooth next to it, it may need to come out.
Signs a wisdom tooth is causing trouble
Pain or swelling at the back of the jaw, a sore gum that keeps getting infected, a bad taste, trouble opening your mouth fully, or food that keeps getting trapped behind your back teeth.
What happens at the clinic
The dentist examines the tooth first and explains whether it needs to come out. Not every wisdom tooth does.
If it does, the area is numbed and the tooth is removed. Before you leave, the dentist explains how to look after the area while it heals.
After the extraction
Bite on the gauze to stop the bleeding, rest for the day, and eat soft food on the other side. Don’t smoke, and don’t rinse hard or drink through a straw for the first day, so the socket can heal.
