FAQs
We answer the most common questions, but if you need more help please get in touch with us.
Why do we have wisdom teeth?
Adults can have up to 32 teeth. The wisdom teeth are the last to come through, right at the back. They usually appear when you are between 17 and 25. Although sometimes they appear many years later.
Nowadays people often have jaws that are too small for all 32 teeth – 28 is often the most we have room for. So if all the other teeth are present and healthy there may not be enough space for the wisdom teeth to come through properly.
Do wisdom teeth always cause problems?
No. If there is enough room they will usually come through into a useful position and cause no more problems than any other tooth.
Often there will be some slight discomfort as they come through, but this is only temporary and will disappear once the tooth is fully in position.
What can I do to help relieve the discomfort of wisdom teeth?
If your gums are sore and swollen, use a mouthwash of medium hot water with a teaspoonful of salt. (Check that it is not too hot before using it.)
Swish the salt water around the tooth, trying to get into the areas your toothbrush cannot reach.
An antibacterial mouthwash such as Corsodyl can also reduce the inflammation.
Pain-relieving tablets such as paracetamol or aspirin can also be useful in the short term, but see your dentist if the pain continues.
What problems should I be prepared for with wisdom teeth?
If part of the wisdom tooth has appeared through the gum and part of it is still covered, the gum may become sore and perhaps swollen.
Food particles and bacteria can collect under the gum edge, and it will be difficult to clean the area effectively.
Your dentist will tell you whether this is a temporary problem that can be dealt with by using mouthwashes and special cleaning methods (and possibly antibiotics), or whether it is better to have the tooth removed.
I am scared of needles, what can you do to minimise this fear?
Before you attend our clinic you can go to your GP and tell him/her of your concerns.
He may prescribe you some Ametop or EMLA cream which contains local anaesthetic solution and applying this to your hands one hour prior to your dental visit will numb you hands so that you will not feel any sensation during cannulation.
On your arrival at our clinic notify our receptionist who will let the Sedationist know.
The Sedationist may ask you to inhale a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen gasses (similar to the Entonox women use during childbirth) to make them feel more relaxed before inserting the cannula.
Are x-rays needed for wisdom teeth?
The dentist will usually take x-rays to see the position of the root, and to see whether there is room for the tooth to come through into a useful position.
