Speaking of wisdom teeth , I believe most people know that wisdom teeth erupt relatively late, usually around 16 to 25 years old.
Clinically, pericoric coronary inflammation of wisdom teeth is particularly common, especially adjacent second molars are particularly prone to problems such as pulpitis, caries , periodontitis , and so on. The pain is relatively severe, so wisdom teeth should be intervened as soon as possible.
Especially now, food has become particularly fine, and the demand for teeth is also decreasing, so wisdom teeth have become useless. Many people choose to go to a dental hospital to remove wisdom teeth after they appear.
What are the dangers of wisdom teeth not being pulled out?
damages peripheral teeth
The wisdom teeth of each person are different. Some wisdom teeth are very special and will span the entire gingival bone, so they must be pulled out in normal times, otherwise the surrounding teeth will be squeezed, making the teeth easily deformed or damaged.
Bacterial infection
When wisdom teeth appear, they generally do not connect seamlessly with the surrounding teeth, so after eating, the teeth are often stuck and some food residues are left.
If you don’t develop good brushing habits in your daily life, food residues will easily breed bacteria in your mouth, which will pose a threat to dental health and easily cause dental diseases.
Wisdom teeth can be kept if they have no effect on the living environment of the surrounding teeth, but if they cause periodontal disease to the surrounding teeth, they should be removed in time.
wisdom teeth extraction is also the best age?
In fact, when you go to the hospital to remove wisdom teeth, the doctor will tell us that there is the best age for wisdom teeth extraction, which is usually between 13 and 30 years old. If you are over 30 years old, the trauma will be greater.
However, some people think that wisdom teeth have little impact on life, so they will not remove them. However, some people choose to remove them for various reasons, because the problems caused by wisdom teeth are difficult to eradicate.
Some wisdom teeth are relatively special and can also affect the surrounding teeth, making the surrounding teeth easy to break and cause great damage to the oral cavity. However, some people are not suitable for wisdom teeth extraction in normal times.
Doctors suggest: These 6 types of people are not suitable for wisdom teeth extraction
Men period women
For women, when menstruation occurs, the number of platelet in the body will become smaller. At this time, wisdom teeth extraction will cause excessive bleeding, causing difficulty in stopping bleeding, and have poor immunity, which is also prone to the risk of infection.
hematologic diseases patients with
Common hematologic diseases include hemorrhagic diseases, anemia, leukemia , etc. These patients have poor hematopoietic functions, especially low platelets, malfunctions of coagulation, which makes it difficult to stop bleeding, and it is easy to cause the risk of infection after tooth extraction, so try to avoid wisdom teeth extraction.
Pregnant women
For pregnant women, especially in the early stages of pregnancy, blindly extracting wisdom teeth will easily lead to miscarriage, and wisdom teeth extraction in late stages of pregnancy will also cause the fetus to easily produce premature birth of , so women try to avoid tooth extraction during pregnancy.
patients with dental inflammation
For some patients with dental inflammation, such as acute infectious stomatitis, acute wisdom tooth pericoritis, acute alveolar abscess, etc., these patients should also avoid tooth extraction, especially during inflammation. The pain will be particularly obvious, and the blood vessels are particularly fragile, resulting in increased bleeding.
diabetic patients
If diabetic patients extract their teeth, the risk of infection is higher than that of ordinary people, because the platelet content in the blood is relatively low, the wound heals slowly, and it is easy to have infection problems, especially the mouth is in a humid environment and the area is particularly sensitive, so blood sugar should be controlled below 8.0mmol/l before tooth extraction.
patients with hypertension
For patients with hypertension, if their blood pressure is relatively high, it is not recommended to extract teeth. Because anesthetics are required during the tooth extraction process, some patients are overly nervous, which can cause increased blood pressure, and there is a risk of continuous bleeding after the tooth extraction.
