Inclined 3rd Molar
Hi.
I'm having 3rd molar in inclined position compared to other teeth. This led to cavity and initial consultation suggested removal of 3rd molar. Heard of risks of removal 3rd Molar as it is closer to vein.
Wanted to know if it's going to a normal surgery or is there any other solution.
Kindly help.

It’s routine extraction and irrespective of the surgeon there is a small risk of nerve injury that may happen ..,
But that’s usually temporary.
