Nervous about wisdom tooth removal? Here's what to expect. π¦·
Wisdom tooth removal is one of the most common procedures we do at Damansara Dental Studio β and most patients tell us it was much easier than they expected.
The procedure:
You'll be under local anaesthesia the whole time, so you feel pressure but no pain. A simple extraction takes 15β20 minutes. Surgical cases (impacted teeth) take a little longer but are just as manageable.
Recovery tips:
β
No straws for 5 days (prevents dry socket)
β
Sleep with head elevated for 2 nights
β
Soft foods only β yes, ice cream counts
β
Rinse with warm salt water after meals
β
Take the full course of antibiotics if prescribed
Most patients feel back to normal within 7 days.
If you have a wisdom tooth that's been bothering you, don't wait until it becomes an emergency. Early removal means easier recovery.
