Wisdom Tooth Extraction at Heritage IMS Hospital

Safe, Painless Removal for Long-Term Relief

Wisdom teeth—your third set of molars—typically erupt between the ages of 17 and 25. While some people experience no issues, many develop pain, swelling, or infection due to improper alignment or lack of space. At Heritage IMS Hospital, our skilled dental surgeons provide safe, effective, and painless wisdom tooth removal using the latest techniques and anesthesia options.

What is Wisdom Tooth Extraction?

Wisdom tooth extraction is a minor surgical procedure to remove one or more of the third molars located at the back of your mouth. When these teeth grow abnormally or are impacted (trapped in the jawbone or gums), removal is necessary to prevent complications.

Common Reasons for Wisdom Tooth Removal

• Impacted Teeth: Trapped in the gums or jawbone, causing pain and swelling
  
• Crowding: Not enough space in the mouth, pushing other teeth out of alignment
  
• Infections: Food and bacteria can get trapped, causing gum or tooth infections
  
• Tooth Decay: Wisdom teeth are hard to clean, leading to cavities
  
• Cysts or Tumors: In rare cases, cysts may develop around an impacted tooth
  

Symptoms That May Require Extraction

• Pain or stiffness in the jaw
  
• Swollen, red, or bleeding gums
  
• Bad breath or unpleasant taste
  
• Difficulty opening your mouth
  
• Headaches or earaches from jaw pressure
  

Our Treatment Process

1. Consultation & X-rays
   We begin with a full oral exam and X-rays to evaluate the tooth’s position and decide if extraction is necessary.
   
2. Local Anesthesia or Sedation
   Your comfort is our priority. We use local anesthesia, and in complex cases, conscious sedation or general anesthesia for a pain-free experience.
   
3. Surgical Extraction
   The tooth is carefully removed, sometimes in sections, to minimize trauma and speed up healing.
   
4. Post-Operative Care
   You’ll receive detailed aftercare instructions, pain medication, and follow-up appointments to monitor healing.
   

Recovery Timeline

• 1–2 days: Swelling and mild discomfort (managed with medication and cold compress)
  
• 3–5 days: Noticeable healing begins
  
• 7 days: Stitches (if any) are removed
  
• 2 weeks: Most people return to full activity
  

Aftercare Tips

• Bite gently on gauze to stop bleeding
  
• Apply ice packs to reduce swelling
  
• Eat soft foods and avoid hot drinks
  
• Avoid smoking, alcohol, and vigorous rinsing
  
• Keep the area clean with a prescribed mouthwash
