Extra Wisdom teeth growth
Hi, all
I see that rapid growth in my new wisdom teeth, which is slightly bent towards the left and it's damaging the skin.
I consulted a local dentist, he suggested for the teeth extraction which is new wisdom teeth and also which is in the top of the new teeth. And the cost mentioned is 6-8k. I'm looking for the second opinion and and the second option on this, please do needful.
I'm attaching the relevant photos for the better understanding.
Extraction is the best treatment for you at the moment. Numbness has a higher chance because your wisdom tooth is very near to the nerve. The IOPA(xray) taken is a 2-D xray, there’s a possibility that there might be no numbness at all if the nerve is at a distance from the tooth. In any case, no effect is permanent, you will start gaining sensation in 6 months even if you experience paraesthesia immediately after the extraction.
Many doctors will do this extraction in 3-5k too, you can still explore.
Next Steps
Go for extraction
