Not Every Wisdom Tooth Needs Removal.
Having a wisdom tooth does not automatically mean it needs to be extracted. Wisdom Teeth Extraction is generally considered when a tooth becomes impacted, repeatedly infected, painful, difficult to clean, or begins affecting neighbouring teeth.
Symptoms such as swelling near the back of the jaw, recurring gum discomfort, difficulty opening the mouth, or persistent pain should be professionally assessed.
At Dr Batra's Dental, clinical examination and dental imaging help determine the position and condition of the wisdom tooth. Extraction is recommended based on clinical need rather than simply because a wisdom tooth is present.
