They are extremely difficult to clean because of their placement inside the mouth. They can cause serious pain and swelling which lead to gum disease. Not all wisdom teeth fully erupt. Many people have to deal with partially erupted teeth that only display half of the top surface or less.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most toothbrushes cannot touch the wisdom teeth even when they fully erupt. Because of the difficulty brushing the teeth, wisdom teeth almost always become infected and start to decay. When they decay, they can cause pain, facial swelling and unnecessary discomfort. This can also happen to other teeth which is a common reason for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mycreativesmiles.com\/tooth-extraction-procedure\/\">tooth extraction<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our dentists will offer to perform a wisdom tooth extraction instead of trying to place a filling on such a tooth since the person will not lose any chewing or speaking ability by the loss. A wisdom tooth extraction consists of an anesthetic and the vigorous efforts of a dentist. Sometimes, dentists have to cut the gum to reach an impacted tooth.

X-rays are taken of your mouth before the surgery, so the surgeon knows exactly how many pieces to look for and remove, and where to find them.
