Impacted teeth in brief

An impacted tooth is a tooth that cannot take its place in the mouth because there is not enough room in the jaw or it is facing the wrong way. It is most common with wisdom teeth; canines can also stay impacted.

Not every impacted tooth needs to be removed. Removal is recommended if there is pain, infection, damage to a neighboring tooth or a risk of a cyst. The decision is made after an examination and X-rays. At our clinic, impacted teeth are removed by our periodontist, Dr. Ömer Kazım Toprak.

An impacted tooth stays inside the jawbone or gum and does not erupt. It is mostly removed under local anesthesia; the area heals within a few weeks.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about impacted teeth

Should every wisdom tooth be removed?

No. Wisdom teeth that have erupted properly, can be cleaned and cause no problems can stay in the mouth. The decision to remove them is based on an examination and X-rays.

Is impacted tooth removal painful?

Because the procedure is done under local anesthesia, you do not feel pain during it. Pain in the following days is controlled with the medication your dentist recommends.

Can the tooth be removed while I am asleep?

For patients with dental anxiety, sedation with an anesthesiologist can be planned. Suitability is assessed at the examination.

When can I go back to work or school after the procedure?

Most people return to their daily routine after resting for 1–2 days. For strenuous exercise, your dentist usually recommends waiting a few days.

How long does swelling last?

Swelling is usually at its worst on day 2–3 and then goes down. Applying cold on the first day reduces swelling.
