Only people who have wisdom teeth can deeply appreciate the "wisdom tooth pain", and many people are suffering from the destruction of wisdom teeth. His face was swollen, he couldn't eat, and he couldn't even drink his saliva. Whenever it takes a long time to do a good job of psychological construction to pull out wisdom teeth, it suddenly goes down. When you think it's healed, it starts to hurt faintly. Over and over again, it is impossible to make up one's mind. So, should wisdom teeth be pulled out?
What wisdom teeth are
Wisdom teeth are not teeth that will grow by intelligent people, but teeth that people grow after adulthood, which is a sign of mental maturity. The adult's mouth has sixteen teeth on top and bottom, and the upper and lower teeth are divided into two parts, left and right. Wisdom teeth generally grow behind the eighth tooth, in the deepest part of the mouth, and it is difficult to observe with the naked eye.
Why do people grow wisdom teeth
People with wisdom teeth involve evolutionary problems, and the mouth of primitive people is relatively large, so it can accommodate more teeth. The jaws of modern people slowly degenerate over time, and cannot accommodate teeth other than fixed teeth, so wisdom teeth will be squeezed to the last position of the mouth, surrounded by gums and bone tissue, and inflammation will occur.
People have "talked about tooth extraction discoloration", in fact, not all wisdom teeth need to be removed, the following wisdom teeth do not need to be pulled out: if the wisdom teeth can grow normally, and the direction of growth is correct and not biased, it is not necessary to work hard to pull out. Wisdom teeth without inflammation and pain are also "good teeth" and can be kept in the mouth. Our teeth are paired, biting up and down. If your wisdom teeth are up and down corresponding to the length, it does not affect the normal bite, it is also no problem.
In addition to the above good wisdom teeth, if there are the following conditions, it is necessary to go to the hospital to remove them.
Recurrent inflammation
The long crooked, inverted, and low position of the wisdom teeth may affect the normal growth of the wisdom teeth, the wisdom teeth cannot fully grow out, and some of them are surrounded by the gums. Such wisdom teeth will be stuffed with some food debris, not easy to clean, and often inflamed. If the inflammation cannot be eliminated in time, the swelling of the wisdom teeth will squeeze the teeth next to it, and the toothache will also be caused, so it should be removed as soon as possible.
Lack of bite teeth
As mentioned earlier, the teeth are in pairs of upper and lower bites. If the bite of the opposite tooth is missing, the growth of the wisdom teeth will lack restrictions, and it will grow all the way to the opposite side, rubbing against the gum of the opposite tooth. In addition, uneven teeth can also lead to more food residues, resulting in symptoms of repeated inflammation of the teeth.
Wisdom teeth decay
If wisdom teeth are originally bad teeth, even if they are not painful, it is very difficult to repair. The cavity of tooth decay is also difficult to clean, which can easily lead to inflammation.
Therefore, if it is a wisdom tooth that needs to be pulled, overcome the inner fear and remove it as soon as possible.
