Impacted Tooth Surgery

An impacted tooth has not fully erupted into its expected position. Removal is not required in every case. Symptoms, infection, adjacent teeth and other findings guide a choice between monitoring and surgery.

What is assessed?

The tooth position, root shape and relationship to structures such as nerves or the sinus are assessed.

Treatment process

When surgery is indicated, controlled access is made to the tooth. It may be divided into sections for removal before the site is closed. The method depends on anatomy.

Care and follow-up

Swelling, tenderness and temporary limitation in opening may occur. Recovery and review follow the clinician’s instructions.

Preparing for your first visit

  1. Discussion of your concern and medical history.
  2. Clinical examination and appropriate diagnostic records.
  3. Review of alternatives, treatment stages and maintenance needs.
Suitability is determined at clinical assessment. Medical history, medication, existing tissues and expectations may influence the plan. Duration, appointments, fees and possible risks are discussed after individual evaluation.
