Wisdom tooth removal is a common dental procedure performed to extract the third molars, which typically emerge during late adolescence or early adulthood. Wisdom teeth can cause problems if there is insufficient space in the mouth, leading to impaction, infection, or damage to adjacent teeth. The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity of the extraction and patient comfort. The dentist or oral surgeon makes an incision in the gum tissue to access the tooth and may need to remove it in sections if it is impacted or not fully erupted. Postoperative care involves managing pain with prescribed medications, applying ice packs to reduce swelling, and following a soft-food diet during the healing process. Recovery time varies, but most patients return to normal activities within a few days. Proper care and follow-up are essential to ensure a smooth recovery and prevent complications such as infection or dry socket.
