Wisdom Teeth

Anthem Arizona Wisdom Teeth Extraction

No matter how much you take care of your teeth in your youth, nothing can stop your wisdom teeth from coming in. As a matter of fact, once you hit your late teens or early twenties, only a small portion of people are able to avoid having to get their wisdom teeth removed. However, while the process may seem a bit intimidating at first, having your wisdom teeth removed by a trusted and reputable dentist is a common practice. And while it may not be the most enjoyable experience at the time, it’ll leave you with a much straighter smile and better oral health in the future. 

What are Wisdom Teeth?

Your wisdom teeth refer to up to four molars that grow in at the back of your mouth. While the common number of wisdom teeth that are in a persons mouth is four, some individuals have only three or less. This all varies depending on your genetics and family history. However, when molars do begin to spout up, they can do so in a horizontal or otherwise misshapen way, which is referred to as “impacted.” As you can probably imagine, having horizontal teeth growing protruding through your gums is certainly not something that your mouth is ready for, especially if the rest of your teeth are already aligned properly.

How do I prepare for Wisdom Teeth?

The best way to prepare for your molars is to have regular x-rays by your dentist. Darren Flowers is a reputable dentist in Arizona who looks at the shape and growth of a persons teeth, in order to get a better idea of when the molars may decide to come through the gums. If you can spot the issues of molars earlier in your life, than you may be able to get them removed before they become a major issue. However, if they begin to come through the gums, this can become a bigger, and more painful, issue.

Keep in mind that having your wisdom teeth removed may require a few days to prepare for and recover from. The oral surgery will take a bit of time, and you will be sedated in order to safely undergo the procedure. However, getting your wisdom teeth removed makes for a more healthy and better looking smile in the future.
