Wisdom Teeth Extraction in Cypress, TX

In many cases, keeping your wisdom teeth can put your health at risk. Some of the risks involved with keeping your wisdom teeth include:

Impacted Teeth: Many jaws are not large enough to accommodate wisdom teeth. One of the problems that can occur because of this is that wisdom teeth can become impacted, or unable to erupt through the gums. This can cause infection, damage to the teeth, or even a cyst.

Partial Eruption: If a wisdom tooth breaks only partway through the gums, problems can arise. The gum tends to grow over the partially erupted tooth, and germs and food particles can easily become trapped under this flap of gum. The germs and food can lead to infection, which means swollen, tender, and painful gums.

Ruined Smile: Because there isn’t usually enough space for wisdom teeth, they can come in the wrong way entirely–the top of the tooth may face forward, backward, or to the side. Even if the tooth comes incorrectly, it could push the rest of your teeth, causing your smile to look crowded and crooked.

Dr. Faltine extracts wisdom teeth because wisdom teeth removal in Cypress promotes a healthy and beautiful smile. Wisdom teeth extraction prevents crowding, impacted teeth, infection, gum disease, and tooth decay.

FAQs

When do dentists recommend tooth extraction?
Tooth extraction is needed when decay or infection has penetrated the gum and nerve (called pulp) beneath the tooth’s surface. The pulp contains nerves that send signals to the brain. When these are damaged, pain and sensitivity of a tooth or nearby teeth can occur. In severe cases, an abscess may form behind a tooth, causing swelling and fever.
How many days does it take for a tooth extraction to heal?
While tooth extraction may be a painful and traumatic experience, it is not necessarily a dangerous procedure. The effects of anesthesia during the extraction process are temporary. The excessive pain experienced by patients post-extraction is generally due to inflammation in the area and should subside within a week or two. Patients can return to work after six to eight days of recovery
What should I avoid after tooth extraction?
When you finally get your teeth extracted, you need to be on top of the hygiene details. When you can open your mouth, brush your teeth and tongue with a soft toothbrush, careful not to scratch your gums. Try not to drink a lot of water right away and don't eat anything hard (like nuts).
How long do gums hurt after tooth extraction?
How long your gums hurt after tooth extraction depends on your individual situation. If the gum tissues are impacted and torn, gums will immediately begin to throb and bleed. Gums also begin to heal quickly with dental implants.
Do teeth extractions hurt?
Teeth extractions can hurt. The discomfort varies based on the patient’s pain tolerance and the number of teeth being removed. In general, the more teeth extracted, the more discomfort no matter how well dentists are trained in anesthesia.
