There are numerous Dentist Matawan. If you live in the area and find yourself needing a Matawan Dentist to extract your wisdom teeth, you should contact Allied Dental of Old Bridge. The procedure can be done in the office whether you need one or all removed. Before removing a wisdom tooth the dentist will give you local anesthetic to numb the area where the tooth will be removed. A general anesthetic may be used especially if more than one tooth will be pulled out at the same time. A general anesthetic stops pain in the entire body and will allow you to sleep through the entire procedure. The dentist will probably suggest that you do not eat or drink after midnight on the night before surgery so that you will be prepared for the anesthetic.
To remove the wisdom tooth, your dentist will expose the gum tissue over the tooth and take out any bone that is over the tooth. The dentist will then detach the tissue joining the tooth to the bone and then remove the tooth.
After the tooth is removed you may need stitches. Some stitches disappear over time and some have to be taken out after a few days. Your dentist will tell you if the stitches need to be taken out at the office and have you schedule an appointment. You may experience some pain and swelling as well and some bleeding is normal for the first twenty-four hours.
Call the dentist if any of these symptoms occur: swelling that worsens after two or three days, fever, intense pain that is not alleviated by the prescribed pain medication, pus oozing in or around the extraction site. In most cases the recovery period lasts only a few days. Take painkillers as prescribed by your dentist.
A wisdom tooth is extracted to fix a real problem or to avoid problems that may come up in the future. If you are not having problems with your wisdom teeth you may want to consider having your wisdom teeth removed to stop future problems as you age.
