When wisdom tooth does not grow into their correct position and becomes partially covered by the gums or impacted against the adjacent molar tooth, it can cause a SEE MORE variety of issues.

  3. Issues caused by wisdom tooth Gum infection (Pericoronitis) When the impacted wisdom tooth is partially covered by gums, food might get easily stuck between the gums overlying the wisdom tooth and the tooth itself. Food stuck at the impacted wisdom tooth are usually not easily accessible for tooh brushing. As a result, gum infection will occur and this causes pain, swelling, pus discharge at the area.

  4. When the impacted tooth hits the neighboring molar tooth, food always get stuck at the region and not easily cleansable. There will be a high risk of developing tooth decay on the wisdom tooth itself and the adjacent molar tooth. The tooth decay on the adjacent molar are usually formed at the neck region of the tooth, which is hard to detect without X-rays and often very difficult to restore and have poor prognosis. If the adjacent molar is badly decayed, it might require removal together with the wisdom teeth in malay also. Therefore our dentists may suggest to remove the unfavorably positioned wisdom tooth before this happens. Tooth Decay

Altered sensation to the lower lip and tongue. Two nerves lie quite close to the lower wisdom teeth. The nerves can vary in their proximity to wisdom teeth. See the image below. The lingual nerve provides sensation in your tongue whilst the inferior dental nerve gives sensation to the lower lip and skin overlying the chin. Infection- An infection to the extraction socket can happen if the area is not kept clean after the surgery. In some occasion, the blood clot will dissolve and leave the socket exposed, causing a condition known as dry socket. Dry socket usually happens due to smoking. Therefore we advise not to smoke for a few days after surgery.
