Teeth extraction in Kyiv

The Indications for Tooth Extraction

• The tooth is severely damaged and cannot be repaired properly;
• Root canals cannot be properly treated;
• The tooth is a source of infectious inflammation, which cannot be treated by endodontic treatment;
• Root fractures and other mechanical damage that cannot be repaired;
• Extremely mobile teeth;
• Overcompleted and incompletely erupted teeth;
• Misalignment of the wisdom tooth and other teeth that interferes with food intake and speech functions.

Tooth extraction is a measure of the last resort in dentistry, but modern dental technology offers a remarkable solution in this case: dental implants, which we also offer at our clinic.

We focus on wisdom tooth extraction as a separate topic. The removal of a wisdom tooth is a great challenge that can only be solved by an experienced, highly qualified oral surgeon.

Do my wisdom teeth need to be extracted?

Wisdom teeth are the third premolars (eight) that are rudimentary in the jaw of the modern man. They erupt after the age of 18 (it can also happen at the age of 30 or 40). At this time, the jaw is already formed, so there is often no place for the eight teeth to normally erupt.

As a result, the roots of such a tooth have an irregular position, and the crown may be against the cheek or neighboring teeth.

The process of wisdom tooth eruption is also very painful, and is accompanied by red gums, pain on biting, and a constant nagging pain at the end of the tooth row.

When a wisdom tooth needs to be extracted

However, it is not always necessary to remove a wisdom tooth. Dentists always try to save the wisdom tooth in cases where it is correctly shaped, manageable, has an antagonistic tooth and is able to chew.

However, it should be extracted when the wisdom tooth is growing and is pressing against a neighbouring tooth or the cheek, causing severe pain and is a permanent cause of pericoronitis.

Extracting a wisdom tooth at Este-line

• Consultation with a specialist and diagnosis. X-rays and a computer tomogram are made if the patient complains of painful sensations caused by an erupting wisdom tooth. This allows the doctor to determine exactly where the roots are located.
• A local or general anesthesia (at the choice of the patient). At our clinic, wisdom tooth extraction of any complexity is painless. We use anesthesia electronically, which allows for comfortable and rapid anesthesia. Our experienced anesthesiologist can also put the patient into a drug-induced sleep using general anesthesia.
• Tooth extraction. Este-line dentistry has a surgical device piezotome, which allows to take the roots of a tooth out of a socket with minimal gum tissue dissection.
• Checkup examination in a few days after surgery.
