Frequently Asked Questions
Wisdom teeth removal can prevent overcrowding of the mouth by providing the necessary space for the existing teeth to remain in their proper alignment, as demonstrated in a case study of a patient who underwent the procedure at Butler Dental.
Removal of wisdom teeth can also reduce the risk of soft tissue damage caused by overcrowding, which can lead to more extensive dental treatments and surgical procedures. In addition, overcrowding of the mouth can increase the risk of tooth decay, making brushing and flossing more difficult and leading to a buildup of plaque and bacteria.
By removing wisdom teeth, patients can protect their teeth and gums from decay and maintain good oral hygiene.
Swelling and discomfort following oral surgery can be effectively managed with the right care. To reduce swelling and minimise discomfort caused by wisdom teeth removal, Butler Dental provides detailed aftercare instructions:
Good oral hygiene is essential for a successful recovery, as the dental care routine helps prevent infection and promotes dental health. At Butler Dental, our team is committed to helping you manage and recover from any discomfort or swelling caused by wisdom teeth removal.
On average, the full recovery period for the extraction of wisdom teeth may take up to a few weeks, with most people experiencing initial healing and discomfort subsiding within a few days to a week.
This recovery period is influenced by several factors, such as the complexity of the extraction and the individual’s natural healing process. To ensure a smooth recovery, it is recommended to rest, maintain good oral hygiene, follow a soft food diet, and consult with a dentist for detailed aftercare instructions.
Additional measures, such as oral sedation and tooth removal stories, may manage any swelling or discomfort associated with gum disease.
At Butler Dental, we take an individualised approach to dental care and consider a patient’s medical history before any procedure, such as wisdom teeth removal, to ensure the safest and most effective treatment.
Our dental practice offers a comprehensive assessment of each patient’s medical history:
We understand that many patients may have questions or concerns, and we strive to provide a comfortable and informative consultation appointment. With our holistic approach to wisdom tooth extractions, you can trust Butler Dental to provide you with the best care and service possible.
A comprehensive initial consultation for a dental procedure is conducted at Butler Dental to ensure that the safest and most effective treatment is provided.
During the appointment, the dentist will thoroughly examine the patient’s mouth, including X-rays, to identify the position of the wisdom teeth and assess their potential impact on the patient’s oral health. The dentist will also discuss any concerns the patient may have and answer any questions they may have about the wisdom teeth removal process. Specialty procedures such as sedation may also be discussed if the patient feels anxious about the procedure.
At Butler Dental, the team of experienced dental professionals strive to provide patients with the highest quality dental services and takes the time to ensure that each patient is fully informed and comfortable before moving forward with any treatment.
Regular oral examinations can detect any signs of cancer before dental procedures. At Butler Dental, this is an important part of our comprehensive approach to patient care. We believe in preventive rather than reactive care, so we perform cancer screenings every six months before wisdom tooth removal.
The screening includes a visual inspection of the mouth and throat and a physical examination of the head and neck. Our dental X-rays of the wisdom teeth allow us to assess the position of the impacted teeth and the associated jawbone. This helps us to determine the best and most effective treatments for our patients.
