The Wisdom Tooth Extraction Process
Once you and your dentist decide that it’s time for the wisdom teeth to come out (because they are causing pain or pressing on the nearby teeth), the extraction process is fairly straightforward.
The treatment area will be numbed before a small incision is made in the gums. From there, each tooth will be removed in pieces (this allows for a smaller incision, meaning less recovery time is necessary afterward). The gums will be closed with self-dissolving sutures, and by following a few basic recovery guidelines, the patient’s mouth should be mostly healed and feel normal within a week.
