Everything you need to know about wisdom teeth extraction

Wisdom teeth are large permanent teeth. They are also called the eights, because they are positioned last, in the back of the tooth row. Usually, wisdom teeth start appearing at the age of 18-25. The most common problem is the difficulty of the eights coming through. The reason is that generally by this time all the other teeth had long formed a tooth row, and there is basically no room for wisdom teeth.

The dilemma of whether or not to remove wisdom teeth is fairly subjective. Someone may have two of them, someone all four of them, and some may not have them at all. One may be unbothered by wisdom teeth their whole life and to others they may cause great discomfort.

All the necessary diagnostics, including X-rays and computer tomography are carried out immediately in the clinic

How to understand that you need a wisdom tooth extraction?

  • if the wisdom tooth has come through, is disturbing the arrangement of the tooth row and deforming the occlusion: it’s lower/higher that the other teeth or leaning to the side;
  • if the wisdom tooth has partially come through – bacteria then enter the surrounding tissues, which can cause infection and disease;
  • if the wisdom tooth is situated deep inside and causes the overlapping of the teeth: presses down on or malforms them;
  • in some cases in orthodontic treatment (when there is a need of clearing up space for teeth straightening);
  • with explicit indications – when the wisdom tooth hurts or begins to disintegrate, if the patient clearly wants to remove the wisdom tooth.

How do we conduct wisdom teeth extraction?

Dental surgeons of the RIKOTA clinic Nazar Stanko, Rostislav Galko and Oleksa Tomishch will conduct the procedure of wisdom teeth extraction painlessly and without harm to the patient. Surgeons try to meddle with bone tissue as little as possible and not exert excessive pressure. To make the extraction process easier, we segment (spray) the tooth with special equipment. After removing the tooth, the doctor does not leave an open wound. He fills the empty space with special centrifuged blood (granted that the patient agrees to the venipuncture process).

PRF technology application significantly speeds up the healing process

Or uses a hemostatic collagen sponge that dissolves within a few days.

In addition, the wound is sutured. This contributes to rapid wound healing and reduced postoperative sensations.

After the procedure, the doctor will prescribe you some medications and provide all the recommendations concerning care and healing. They must be adhered to in order to alleviate postoperative symptoms. In addition, a week after the tooth extraction, we will prescribe a check-up and removal of the sutures.

Скільки коштує видалити зуб мудрості?

Ціна на видалення зуба мудрості залежить від складності, а також від того, який тип знечулення обрав пацієнт (місцеву анестезію або медикаментозний сон під супроводом анестезіолога).

Ми умовно виділяємо кілька рівнів складності видалення:

  1. Звичайне видалення: коли потрібно видалити повністю прорізаний зуб.
  2. Складне видалення: випадки, коли потрібно видалити частково прорізаний зуб або проводити додаткові маніпуляції.
  3. Атипове видалення: коли для видалення зуба, необхідно провести відкриття ясен або кістки.
