Wisdom Tooth Assessment and Removal in Vanasthalipuram
A wisdom tooth may erupt normally, remain partly covered by gum, grow at an angle or remain trapped inside the jaw. Pain or swelling should be assessed to understand the tooth position, surrounding structures and whether removal is necessary.

What happens during assessment?
The surgeon examines the mouth and reviews a suitable dental X-ray or OPG when required. The tooth angle, root shape, available space and relationship to nearby structures are considered. The need for removal, expected complexity, aftercare and estimated cost are explained before the procedure.
Aftercare overview
Written instructions should cover pressure on the gauze, food choices, oral hygiene, prescribed medicines, activity and warning signs. Healing varies according to the tooth position, procedure and individual health factors.
Frequently asked questions
Does every wisdom tooth need removal?

Why may an OPG be required?
An OPG provides a panoramic view that can help assess wisdom teeth, roots, jawbone and nearby structures when clinically indicated.
Is the cost the same for every wisdom tooth?
No. Cost varies with tooth position, root anatomy, surrounding structures and procedure complexity. It should be explained after assessment.
When should I seek urgent care after removal?
