When You Need Emergency Wisdom Tooth Extraction

Third molars, commonly known as wisdom teeth, typically erupt when you enter adulthood, but they are a lot more susceptible to problems such as tooth decay or cavities and infection ( tooth abscess) than other teeth. The causes of these problems include improper eruption ( e.g. wisdom teeth can only partially erupt) or improper positioning ( they cannot breach the gumline completely), both of which can lead to impacted wisdom teeth. An abscessed wisdom tooth is a severe dental problem that requires same-day, emergency tooth removal.

If you live in the Montreal area and you have an impacted wisdom tooth or a badly damaged wisdom tooth that can’t be saved and you’re in severe pain, you need to see immediately an emergency wisdom tooth extraction specialist like the oral maxillofacial surgeons at Aoude Dental Center. That’s because you need to receive emergency treatment consisting of same-day wisdom tooth extraction. Be advised that pain associated with an impacted, or infected wisdom tooth cannot be managed with over-the-counter painkillers – you need emergency dental care because the throbbing pain can become excruciating within just a few hours.

In addition to severe pain, the symptoms associated with an impacted wisdom tooth also include swollen, red gums around the tooth, jaw tenderness, bad breath, and bad taste in your mouth. An impacted third molar can only be extracted surgically, by an oral maxillofacial surgeon. When the wisdom tooth is fully trapped in the jaw, then you have a full-bony impacted wisdom tooth, and the extraction, in this case, is a bit more complicated, which is why it’s in your best interest to seek the emergency dental services provided by an experienced and trusted oral surgeon in the Montreal area. The wisdom tooth removal specialists provide first-class, same-day dental care in a comfortable environment, at the best prices in Montreal and surrounding areas.

When your wisdom tooth is partly stuck in the jaw (partly-bony impacted) or stuck under the gum ( soft-tissue impacted), the extraction involves only a minor surgical procedure to remove the badly affected wisdom tooth from the socket in the alveolar bone. and it’s performed under local anesthesia.
