Description

The removal of wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, is a common surgical procedure. The treatment process for wisdom teeth surgery typically involves several steps: Consultation and Examination: Before the surgery, a consultation with an oral surgeon or dentist is usually conducted. X-rays may be taken to assess the position of the wisdom teeth and determine if they need to be removed. Preoperative Instructions: Patients are provided with preoperative instructions, which may include fasting for a certain period before the surgery and information about any medications that need to be adjusted or discontinued. Anesthesia: Wisdom teeth removal is often performed under local anesthesia, conscious sedation, or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity of the extraction and the patient's preferences. Local anesthesia numbs the area around the teeth, conscious sedation helps relax the patient, and general anesthesia renders the patient unconscious.
