As your tooth is decayed and infected , extracting your wisdom tooth is necessary. Removing the tooth will prevent further infection and potential damage to surrounding teeth and tissues.
After the extraction, please follow the post-operative guidelines provided by your dentist to ensure a smooth and successful recovery.
This will help you achieve the best possible outcome and minimize any potential complications.
