Wisdom Teeth Extraction in Goregaon East: Symptoms, Cost & Recovery Tips

Wisdom teeth (third molars) usually emerge between ages 17 and 25. Because modern human jaws often lack space for these final molars, wisdom teeth frequently become impacted—trapped partially or completely beneath the gum or jawbone, causing severe pain, swelling, and infection.

Symptoms of Impacted Wisdom Teeth

• Severe throbbing jaw pain at the back of the mouth
• Swollen, tender, or bleeding gums (pericoronitis)
• Difficulty opening your mouth or swallowing
• Chronic bad breath or foul taste near the back teeth
• Headaches or radiating earache

Why Extraction is Often Necessary

Leaving an impacted wisdom tooth untreated can damage adjacent healthy molars, form painful fluid-filled cysts in the jawbone, or crowd straight teeth. Learn more on our wisdom teeth removal treatment page.

Dr. Anup Agrawal ensures wisdom teeth extractions are completely gentle and painless:

1. Digital X-Ray / OPG Evaluation: Mapping nerve location and root shape.
2. Local Anesthesia: Deep numbing of the jaw section so you feel zero discomfort.
3. Gentle Removal: Impacted teeth are gently sectioned into tiny pieces for easy extraction without stress on the jawbone.
4. Self-Dissolving Sutures: Clean closure promoting rapid tissue healing.

Post-Extraction Recovery Tips

• Bite gently on sterile gauze for 45 minutes post-procedure.
• Apply an ice pack on the cheek for 15-minute intervals to minimize swelling.
• Eat soft, cool foods like yogurt, ice cream, soup, and smoothies for 24-48 hours.
• Do NOT drink through a straw, smoke, or spit forcefully for 3 days to avoid dry socket.
