Toothache in the lower jaw

Question

Asked for Male, 23 Years

I am having mild toothache on both sides of the jaw. I have been suffering from this since last 1 week. I visited a denstist. She said its due to the misalignment of the wisdom tooth and need to get them removed but I doubt that its only due to that because the pain in distributed from premolars to molars and not concentrated only on the wisdom tooth. I am afraid of losing wisdom tooth. Genuine help required.

Accepted Answer

Hello Warm personal regards The wisdom tooth in most of the cases does not aid in chewing and if that's causing trouble then get it removed. It's nothing very serious to be afraid of. The anaesthesia these days is good enough which does not make the procedure painful at all. So I would suggest to go for the extraction and get your issue resolved permanently.
