There is a situation where when you have a toothache, you go to the hospital for a check-up and find out that it may be because of impacted wisdom teeth. (The other three wisdom teeth may also be impacted and push against the adjacent teeth, but they are not injured yet. Condition)

Impacted wisdom teeth can cause several types of harm when they grow later.

1. When impacted wisdom teeth grow, they injure adjacent teeth. The dental nerve becomes infected and inflamed, causing severe pain. The dental nerve dies, and the periodontium may be sealed.

Treatment method: First remove the impacted wisdom tooth on the painful side (possibly both the upper and lower teeth), and then perform root canal treatment on the adjacent teeth. (The doctor may arrange to remove one or two wisdom teeth on the other side while removing the sutures. Impacted wisdom teeth only)

2. When impacted wisdom teeth grow, the roots of adjacent teeth are squeezed and broken, and the dental nerves become infected and inflamed, causing severe pain. The adjacent teeth cannot be reworked and can only be extracted.

Treatment method: After the adjacent teeth and the impacted wisdom teeth (possibly both the upper and lower teeth) are removed together, (the doctor may arrange to remove one or two impacted wisdom teeth on the other side while removing the sutures) and wait three months to see the adjacent teeth. Based on the healing of the frontal bone, dental implants can be used to replace the adjacent teeth.
