Wisdom Tooth Extraction Lisbon
Wisdom Teeth Removal Lisbon
Prior to wisdom tooth surgery we treat the patient with local anaesthetic and intravenous / IV / sedation where necessary. Patients suffering from dental phobia sometimes benefit from IV sedation for greater relaxation and safety during wisdom tooth removal.
The oral surgeon assesses patient response to the anaesthetic and begins the surgical procedure when the wisdom tooth region is numb for pain-free treatment. The surgeon lifts the gum tissue and lifts out the wisdom tooth.
Depending on the type and severity of wisdom tooth impaction, the surgical procedures may be somewhat different. For example, it may be necessary for the surgeon to remove wisdom tooth bone piece-by-piece to preserve surrounding dental structure.
Once oral surgeon removes wisdom tooth doctor will use self-dissolving stitches to re-seal gum tissue for healthy recovery. The entire surgery occurs within the mouth and does not affect the outer facial skin or structures.

Wisdom teeth develop from ages 18 to 25 after the rest of the milk teeth have been replaced by permanent teeth. One wisdom tooth develops in the rear corners of either side of the upper and lower dental arch, with wisdom teeth consisting of either one or more of the four third molars. It is not uncommon to have no wisdom teeth or only one wisdom tooth develop.
Wisdom teeth have undergone an evolutionary change in their development due to modern civilisation. In earlier centuries before the use of cutlery to eat when humans needed to be able to chew raw or semi-raw meats, roots and other foods, wisdom teeth served a useful and powerful purpose.
Clinical situations are common where the “wisdom teeth” / third molars / do not break in the oral cavity. Many times, we only discover them, during the routine exam of the patient and with the help of radiographs.
These teeth often have poor position and impact in neighboring teeth / in the bones of the maxilla and/or mandible /, which can cause cavities, formation of abscesses, pericoronitis, that may require their extractions.
Canines may also be included, as they are impacted on neighboring teeth, preventing their eruption and the correct positioning of the remaining anterior teeth.
In these situations, the possibility of repositioning these canines with the help of orthodontic appliances is possible in some cases. As an alternative to tooth extraction, since it is a tooth of vital importance. Both in aesthetics and in masticatory function.
