They can appear in the late teens and into early adulthood, and a host of problems can occur when they decide to pop up. Many times, extraction is the best method for dealing with these issues. If you think you\u2019re experiencing problems related to these third molars, keep reading to learn more about wisdom teeth removal in Williamstown at iSmile Dental Arts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serious Problems Associated with Wisdom Teeth<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wisdom teeth can appear any time after the age of about 18, but there\u2019s often not enough room for the tooth to fully erupt. Insufficient space can cause the teeth to come in crooked, leading to impaction and eventual infection. Additionally, the eruption can cause the other teeth to become crowded as the third molars vie for space in the gum line. Whatever the issue, problematic wisdom teeth require immediate attention. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Signs You May Need Wisdom Teeth Extraction<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Signals that you\u2019re suffering from a problem with these third molars can include pain, facial swelling, infection, problems with the surrounding teeth and even gum disease. If you suspect your wisdom teeth are at the root of your oral issues, extraction is likely the best option for living pain and infection-free once again. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At iSmile Dental Arts, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ismiledentalarts.com\/meet-the-dentist.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Kassem<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has extensive experience performing wisdom teeth extractions. It\u2019s a relatively simple procedure that is performed with a local anaesthesia and other sedation option if you desire. To remove the tooth, Dr. Kassem will open up the gum tissue, take away any bone covering the tooth and then carefully separate the tooth from all surrounding bone and tissue. Stitches may be applied to close the treatment site, and then healing can begin. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recovering From Wisdom Teeth Extraction <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most wisdom teeth recoveries last just a few days. Dr. Kassem will prescribe painkillers to help you recover as comfortably as possible. Applying an ice pack in 15-20 minute intervals can help reduce swelling in the first 24 hours following the surgery. Remember to maintain a diet of soft, nutritious foods, avoiding the use of a straw and to rinse your mouth with warm salt water after the first day to soothe pain and keep down swelling. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schedule an Appointment Today<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because tooth extractions of any sort are easiest in adolescence, we recommend patients have their mouths examined for potential problems with wisdom teeth around the age of 18. If you\u2019d like to schedule an appointment for your teen or loved one, or if you\u2019re currently experiencing problems you think could be related to your wisdom teeth, don\u2019t wait to get in touch with your dentist in Williamstown, Dr. Kassem and the team at iSmile Dental Arts. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ismiledentalarts.com\/contact.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact us<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to book your appointment today!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We may call them wisdom teeth, but it seems there\u2019s really nothing so wonderful about these third molars.
