Wisdom Teeth Removal
Hi community,
I had my wisdom tooth removed which was located in the lower left part, lower left 3rd molar. I wanted to ask as my teeth erupt more and the upper tooth will come down, Can there be any support placed in place of removed tooth. So that it will prevent the upper wisdom tooth to slack and become displaced. Even my mother faced same condition before during her early years.
Can any crown/implant be placed to prevent the healthy tooth from being removed eventually ?

Didn't find the answer you are looking for?
Talk to experienced dentist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
My only question is why you got your wisdom tooth extracted?
If there was space issue or frequent pain and infection, then nothing has to be placed in that space.
If because of cavity/decayed tooth reason, then you can get implant placed.
I hope, I have answered your question well.
Next Steps
Do visit a local dentist for treatment and physical evaluation.
