Wisdom teeth are the innermost teeth in adult teeth. This tooth type grows in people aged 17 to 25 years.

His wisdom teeth teething on his upper jaw caused Mr. Hoa to suffer dull aches and pains, had difficulty eating and drinking, and went to the hospital to check the doctor to find that an ingrown wisdom tooth was pierced in the next tooth. At Dentel dentistry, patients are thoroughly intervened thanks to the painless wisdom tooth extraction method.

More than 10 days before going to the examination room, Mr. Nguyen Van Hoa (18 years old, living in Binh Thanh district, HCMC) always suffered severe pain in his left upper jaw. Talking with his family with his pains, he was explained by his mother that it was a wisdom tooth teething phenomenon, she even said "it only hurts for a few days and it will go away". But the week passed, but the pain still dull to the bone marrow made him not worry.

Thanks to the recommendation of his friends, he came to Dentel's dentist for a check. Here, the doctor discovered that the erupted wisdom tooth was inserted into the next tooth, causing inflammation in the surrounding gums. One week after being intervened with painless tooth extraction at Dentel he got rid of his pain.

Dr. Pham Viet Hung said: “The wisdom tooth is the innermost tooth of two teeth in an adult. This tooth type grows in people aged 17 to 25 years. Human teeth usually only have enough room for 28 teeth (14 upper molars and 14 lower molars) but in fact each person has up to 32 teeth because 4 more teeth are not in the two jaws. Because there is not enough room to grow normally, wisdom teeth often "find another way" as if they grow back into the bone or stab directly towards the next molar."

The function of wisdom teeth is not clear, but the "nuisances" it causes to the "owner" are very unpredictable. Whether or not wisdom teeth should be extracted is still a controversial issue, but in cases where wisdom teeth cause or tend to cause harm to the teeth, gums and surrounding bones, they need to be extracted.

Early symptoms of an eruption of wisdom teeth are usually dull pain. When the wisdom tooth is punctured to the next tooth, it will gradually destroy the "healthy tooth", the wobble can lead to a decay, the heavier it will cause the tooth to be pushed and crushed.

Since the wisdom teeth are in the innermost part of the jaw, it is difficult to clean, food and bacteria easily accumulate. Long-term accumulation causes cavities or inflammation of the surrounding gums leading to swelling, pain, bad breath, ... Gingivitis will recur many times if the wisdom teeth are not treated, the times recurrence after the danger higher. In some cases, when the abnormalities of wisdom teeth are not treated in time, the infection spreads to surrounding areas such as the ears, cheeks, eyes, neck, ... causing danger to life.

People aged 23-25, if they have not seen their wisdom teeth erupt or only see a part of the teeth, surely the wisdom tooth has been deviated. The general mentality of everyone is very afraid of pain, especially when having tooth extraction or oral surgery. Pain during tooth extraction can be the fear of everyone going to the dentist's office.

In recent years, the wisdom teeth extraction minor surgeries have been supported with many new surgical equipment to help patients treat trauma, effectively, quickly heal to help patients move earlier, reduce the risk of infection.
