Normal teeth have caries, but when wisdom teeth have caries, the severity of the caries is much higher than that of normal teeth. Because wisdom teeth often grow at the end of the big teeth, it is extremely easy for food debris to remain in this area, causing inflammation of the wisdom teeth and causing dental caries.
Wisdom teeth inflammation will make patients feel pain in the whole mouth, because wisdom tooth extraction is also a relatively painful thing, so patients will consider whether they must be extracted after wisdom teeth rot?
1. If the wisdom tooth is half rotten, but there are no symptoms, you can continue to observe it. If you have symptoms or frequent infections, and frequent toothaches, you must find a way to pull them out. Otherwise, the condition will be more serious and the infection may be aggravated.
2. In general, wisdom teeth are recommended to be removed in case of caries. Before tooth extraction, curved tomographic films should be taken. It is also recommended to go to a professional dental hospital for treatment. Patients must pay attention to oral hygiene and review three days after tooth extraction to rule out dry socket.
3. If the wisdom tooth is decayed, it must be removed, because the tooth has no chewing function, and the decay of the wisdom tooth may affect other teeth. If the roots of the teeth remain in the gums and have infection and inflammation, it will cause gum pain, and it will definitely affect the patient’s diet. At the same time, the pain of wisdom tooth inflammation will also affect the patient’s normal life and work.
Wisdom teeth refer to the human oral cavity. The alveolar bones are located in the upper, lower, left and right third molars. Since the four third molars begin to sprout around the age of 20, when people’s definition of physical and mental development is close to maturity, they are considered a symbol of “the coming of wisdom”, so they are called “wisdom teeth”. If the patient feels discomfort due to the inflammation of the wisdom tooth, it is necessary to go to the hospital to have it removed in time.
