Wisdom teeth removal is a common dental procedure aimed at extracting one or more of the four permanent adult teeth located at the back corners of the mouth on the top and bottom. Typically emerging in the late teens or early twenties, wisdom teeth can sometimes become impacted, meaning they are blocked from coming in normally or are misaligned. When this happens, they may cause pain, swelling, jaw stiffness, and even damage to adjacent teeth. The removal of wisdom teeth is recommended to prevent such complications. The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity and patient preference. Post-operative care is crucial and involves managing swelling and pain with prescribed medications, maintaining oral hygiene with gentle cleaning, and adhering to a soft food diet to allow for healing. Recovery generally takes a few days, although the surgical sites might take a few weeks to completely heal.
