Painless Surgical Management of Impacted Teeth
Wisdom teeth (third molars) are the last adult teeth to emerge, typically between ages 17 and 25. Because human jaws have evolved smaller, most individuals lack sufficient arch space, causing third molars to erupt at unnatural angles, remain trapped beneath bone (impacted), or only partially breach the gum tissue.
Under the expert surgical care of Dr. Premdeep Gandhi (MDS, Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Fellow ICOI), wisdom tooth removal is conducted with gentle local anesthesia and atraumatic surgical protocols that strictly minimize bone manipulation and ensure fast, uncomplicated recovery.
Digital Nerve Mapping: Before performing third molar surgery, we conduct precision digital radiography to evaluate the exact spatial relationship between the tooth roots and the inferior alveolar nerve canal, eliminating surgical guesswork.
Common Reasons for Wisdom Tooth Removal
- Pericoronitis: Painful bacterial infection and swelling under the gum flap covering a partially erupted molar.
- Damage to Second Molars: Angled third molars push relentlessly against neighboring molars, causing root resorption or hidden cavities.
- Cyst Formation: Fluid-filled sacs developing around an impacted tooth follicle, weakening jawbone structure.
- Cheek Biting & Jaw Stiffness: Malpositioned molars irritating the cheek mucosa and causing chronic trismus (difficulty opening the mouth).
The Extraction Procedure
- Profound Anesthesia: Targeted local anesthetic completely numbs the surgical quadrant so you feel no sharp pain.
- Atraumatic Disimpaction: The tooth is sectioned into smaller segments, allowing gentle removal without excessive bone resection.
- Sterile Socket Irrigation: The extraction site is disinfected with sterile saline to wash away debris and promote healthy clotting.
- Resorbable Suturing: Fine sutures close the gum tissue securely, dissolving naturally within 7–10 days.
