Wisdom teeth can come in straight or at a strange angle. They can grow oddly because most people’s mouths are too small to accommodate these four teeth in the back of the mouth. They can also be impacted. Here is what happens when you prepare to have your wisdom teeth removed.
Wisdom teeth extractions can be simple if they are growing straight. It is just like any other tooth extraction using a local anesthetic. Impacted wisdom teeth can result in a more complicated surgery but even those extractions are routine.
Impacted wisdom teeth are when the tooth grows into the gum, the back part of the jaw, the jaw bone, or into or under other teeth. This can cause pain and problems later. People don’t need wisdom teeth today and find having them pulled as they come helps keep other teeth from being too crowded or crooked.
IT’S A LIFESTYLE.
Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry we offer that focuses on the correction of misaligned teeth and jaws. This is often done using braces or other orthodontic appliances, which apply gentle pressure to the teeth to gradually move them into their proper positions. Here is a general overview of our process of orthodontic treatment:
INITIAL CONSULTATION: The orthodontist will examine the patient’s teeth and jaw to determine the best course of treatment. This may include taking x- rays, photographs, and dental impressions.
TREATMENT PLANNING: The orthodontist will develop a customized treatment plan to address the patient’s specific needs and goals.
APPLIANCE PLACEMENT: The orthodontist will place the appropriate appliance (such as braces or a retainer) on the teeth to begin the orthodontic treatment process.
REGULAR ADJUSTMENTS: The patient will need to visit the orthodontist regularly for adjustments to the appliance, which will help move the teeth into their proper positions.
FINAL EVALUATION: After the teeth have been moved into their proper positions, the orthodontist will remove the appliance and evaluate the final results.
