hey... wisdom tooth needs to be removed only if its eruption is obstructed or there is gross caries in it...
removing a tooth is never a good option.. you should try to save the tooth at first... the best procedure is root canal treatment... and if the tooth is more damaged then only u shud think of its removal...
if u extracted ur wisdom tooth.. the best way to improve healing of the socket is by adding little salt in luke warm water and have a BD dose of chymoral forte
Thank you but the tooth was impacted and sightly erupting. So, in my case it formed a pocket in which food would get stuck in causing me to get really uncomfortable, and I had bleeding and inflammation which would lead to a gross carie. Root canal treatment was impossible on the tooth.
It hurt when I would eat anything hard, so I was compromising the left side of my mouth because it was the only way I could chew. Extraction was the only answer. I will do the warm salt rinse when I'm ready, thank you!
yes yes ... if it was impacted then the only choice is to get it removed... remain on soft diet for couple of days and have medication on time. Doctors must have told u about the dry socket... so keep it clean as much as u can... take care... God bless
