Clarification on Opg
Hey Doc!
What I need to infer from the report of OPG attached here as she had intense pain in the wisdom teeth and area surrounded.
The doctor suggested removing the teeth.
Should I proceed with surgery.
And if yes will there be any embedded risk.
Thanks

Hi. You can go ahead with the removal of the wisdom tooth.
Health Tips
What to expect after removal:
Pain and swelling for 2-3 days, for which medications will be prescribed by your dentist.
Sutures will be placed for better healing and closure of the wound. (Suture will be removed after 5-7 days)
Rinse with lukewarm saline water 24 hours after the surgery, it will help with reducing the inflammation and easing pain.

Hi Anant,It's clearly seen in opg that wisdom teeth have to remove surgically.Better prefer Maxillofacial surgeon for removing wisdom teeth..The procedure is done through local anaesthesia.there is no pain while procedure.Impaction procedures now commonly doing in every clinic without much risks..that is the only solution for your concern.Go ahead with procedure under a skilled maxillofacial oral surgeon.thank youð
