OVERVIEW
What Is Wisdom Tooth Extraction?
Wisdom teeth are located at the end of the jaw and are the last teeth to erupt. Most people have 4 wisdom teeth in the 4 corners of the jaw. Wisdom teeth usually begin to erupt from the gums between the ages of 18-25.
At this time, 28 permanent teeth have grown enough, the tooth arch therefore may not be wide enough, leading to the phenomenon of wisdom teeth getting stuck causing pain and discomfort.
Why Should They Be Removed?
In some cases, impacted wisdom teeth may not cause immediate symptoms but are difficult to clean, causing accumulation of food and bacteria that cause tooth decay, periodontitis, and bad breath. They can cause pressure by pushing the anterior teeth into crowding. Food accumulation makes the wisdom tooth and the adjacent tooth susceptible to decay.
Is Wisdom Tooth Removal Painful?
Wisdom tooth extraction can be performed with local anesthesia, or in combination with sedation, or general anesthesia in complex cases. Wisdom tooth extraction therefore will be pain-free.
Painless Extraction at Worldwide Hospital
The wisdom tooth extraction process becomes even more smooth and quick at Worldwide Hospital thanks to the application of modern equipment and technology:
CT Cone Beam Imaging
Produces 3D images to help doctors clearly identify the position and orientation of wisdom teeth.
Piezotome Machine
Uses ultrasonic waves to stretch the periodontal ligaments for less trauma during surgical extraction.

When grafted, it will release growth factors into the tooth socket, thus speeding up the healing process afterwards.
