Surgery for Wisdom Teeth (Third Molars) Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Istanbul Turkey Dental Center

In many cases, extraction is preferred for third molars or wisdom teeth due to various reasons such as inadequate space, early decay, causing bad breath, inadequate cleaning, and orthodontic needs.

In some patients, third molars do not develop genetically, while in many patients, they remain fully or partially impacted in the jawbone. This situation can lead to various problems such as pain, abscess, swelling, bad breath, decay, damage to adjacent teeth, and the formation of cysts. In very few cases, third molars erupt and function properly in the jaw. In such cases, it may not be necessary to extract them, and they can be kept in the mouth with regular monitoring.

Wisdom tooth extraction is performed meticulously by our experienced dentists at BravoDent Dental Clinic in Istanbul, without damaging the oral tissues and neighboring teeth. Our patients who want to have wisdom tooth extraction can visit our clinic in Kadiköy, Istanbul or contact us for more detailed information and an appointment.

The extraction of third molars varies depending on their impaction and position within the jawbone. The shorter the operation and the less tissue removed during tooth extraction, the easier the recovery after the procedure. Therefore, it is crucial to choose a surgical method that causes minimal trauma to neighboring teeth and anatomically important areas and to consider the experience and knowledge of the surgeon. After the operation, the surgeon will provide detailed instructions for post-operative care.

What Is Wisdom Teeth Surgery, and Why Is It Necessary?

Wisdom teeth surgery is a surgical procedure performed by dentists, involving the removal of the third molars (wisdom teeth). These teeth are often removed because they are commonly impacted and can lead to various oral health issues.

What Are the Advantages of Wisdom Teeth Surgery?

The advantages of wisdom teeth surgery may include the following:

Reduced Pain and Discomfort: Impacted or improperly growing wisdom teeth can cause pain, swelling, and jaw discomfort. The removal of these teeth can help reduce pain and discomfort.

Preservation of Teeth and Jaw: Impacted wisdom teeth can exert pressure on neighboring teeth, leading to decay and jaw problems. Surgery eliminates these risks.

Improving Oral Health: Removing wisdom teeth makes oral hygiene easier and preserves the health of other teeth.

Aesthetic Improvements: Impacted or improperly growing wisdom teeth can negatively affect facial aesthetics. Surgical intervention can provide aesthetic improvements.

How Is Wisdom Teeth Surgery Performed, and What Is the Recovery Process?

Wisdom teeth surgery is performed under local anesthesia, and the surgeon carefully removes the wisdom teeth. The recovery process typically lasts from a few days to a few weeks. It is crucial to follow the doctor’s recommendations during the recovery process. Medications are often prescribed to reduce swelling and pain, and warm or cold compresses are recommended. A soft diet may also be advised. Regular follow-up visits are essential during the post-operative period.
