- Embedded Wisdom Surgery
Symptoms of wisdom tooth inflammation or abscess:
Difficulty in swallowing. Inability to close the mouth or biting and putting pressure on the gum on the wisdom tooth when closed.
Harms of wisdom teeth: Pressure on the front tooth. It may cause crowding. It may cause decay in the front tooth. Since it creates a suitable environment for inflammation, it may occasionally cause pain and swelling. The existing inflammation mixes with the blood at a weak moment in the body; It can settle in vital organs such as heart, kidney, brain and joints and cause life-threatening.
- Treatment of wisdom tooth inflammation:
First of all, the acute inflammation should be made chronic with antibiotic treatment. (The inflammation here only becomes chronic with the use of antibiotics. It cannot be completely cleared. For this reason, tooth extraction should not be given up, thinking that the complaints will disappear after the use of antibiotics.)
- Employed Tooth:
Embedded teeth are the most common cases in oral surgery. Often, upper and lower wisdom teeth, upper jaw canines, and rarely lower and upper jaw premolars may remain impacted in the mouth. Impacted teeth sometimes do not show any symptoms and do not cause any complaints. Sometimes, they can cause major complaints. Once their presence is detected, impacted teeth must be removed whether they cause complaints or not. Complaints that may occur due to impacted teeth are as follows:
Depending on the region where they are located, they must be removed from time to time. They cause pain in the teeth, ears and eyes.
- There will be an area that cannot be cleaned well, especially between the half-buried teeth and the gum and between the impacted tooth and the adjacent tooth in front of it. Microorganisms formed as a result of food residues accumulating here cause recurring infections and caries in the adjacent tooth.
- Empacted wisdom teeth may not erupt due to lack of space. While they work, they apply pressure to the front teeth. As a result of this pressure, shifts and displacements occur, especially in the single-rooted front group teeth. For this reason, especially in children and young people receiving Orthodontic Treatment, the eruption positions of wisdom teeth should be followed very closely.
- Teeth embedded in the bone are located in a sac. Over time, this vesicle may change and cause cyst formation. The resulting cysts can reach very large sizes over time, weakening the jawbone and even causing jaw fractures. Abscess and Cyst Operations (Apical Resection) Where Apical Resection Operation is Performed
Situations:Canal treatment cannot be performed completely due to structural or deformity of the tooth root, Canal treatment cannot be performed due to the presence of a non-removable restoration on the tooth, If the tool is broken during the Root Canal Treatment, if the broken tool must be removed, in order to remove the tool, the canal has been made. In cases where the patient's pain continues despite the treatment, In cases where a cyst occurs on the tooth root, In cases where the 1/3 end part of the tooth root within the bone is broken.
- WISMS TEETH
Wisdom teeth are the third molars that should erupt between the ages of 17-26.
Wisdom teeth are the last teeth in the mouth. Since they are in an area that is difficult to reach and see, they may be more difficult to brush and care for than other teeth. Wisdom teeth decay easily due to insufficient brushing, causing pain and bad breath.
In some cases, wisdom teeth cannot come out due to lack of space in the jaw. They can remain fully buried (not visible in the mouth under both the gums and jawbone), or they can remain semi-buried under the gums and become associated with the oral environment. In this case, they cause food to get stuck and accumulate in the area where they come out of the gum, causing infection. This condition causes swelling and redness in the gum around the wisdom tooth, severe pain radiating to the neck and ear, swelling of the lymph nodes, and pain when opening the mouth and swallowing. It is called nitis.
Fully impacted wisdom teeth can compress the teeth in front of them and create crookedness (curvature) in the teeth. They can also put pressure on the neighboring tooth, causing this tooth to decay. Impacted wisdom teeth that remain unnoticed for many years can cause serious problems by causing cysts that reach large sizes in the jaw.
Even if they do not cause any problems, wisdom teeth may need to be extracted for orthodontic treatment in order for the other teeth to align properly. For such reasons, wisdom teeth need to be extracted with local anesthesia by anesthetizing only the area where they are located.
Extraction of wisdom teeth should be done by oral surgeons.
Apart from wisdom teeth, sometimes canines and premolars are removed. Their teeth may also remain impacted. When it is determined that they cannot be brought into place (with wires)orthodontically, they must be removed with the same operation.
- WHAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AFTER THE OPERATION?
Spitting, brushing teeth, vigorous shaking, using a straw or gargling should not be done on the first day after the extraction. Warm, grain-free and soft foods should be consumed for the first two days. Antiseptic mouthwash recommended by the doctor should be used after every food consumption and tooth brushing. Painkillers and antibiotics, if recommended, should be used regularly. Smoking should not be avoided for the first 48 hours as it will disrupt the healing process.
Following a quick and adequate surgery, there is no excessive pain and the pain is easily controlled with mild painkillers.
Edema in the cheek depends on the condition of the tooth. and it varies greatly from person to person. To prevent swelling, a cold tampon (ice compress) should be applied to the cheek area for the first 24 hours. Slight swelling is normal and necessary for healing.
