What is the significance of wisdom teeth?

Dentists m / f / d speak of “the aft” when they mean the molars, which only appear in the eighth position from the middle of the jaw until the end of the 21st year of life. This stele is difficult to access when brushing your teeth and there are advantages and disadvantages in the subsequent treatment, which will be examined in more detail in a moment. This molar becomes a chronic reservoir of infection if it is not properly brushed regularly or if it has not completely erupted. Recurring inflammation caused by bacteria that settle in the cheek pouches is one of the consequences. The resulting cysts can weaken the jawbone. Leaning against the neighboring tooth, healthy teeth will sooner or later be affected. Weak spots in the jawbone can be seen in the area of those special molars that show up late in young adulthood. If there is not enough space to classify oneself in the jaw, difficulties and a possible dental phobia are inevitable during oral surgery.

Dental fear as a brake on the necessary oral surgery treatment?

Dental treatment is postponed due to the fear of dentists, wisdom teeth that need treatment do not tolerate such postponement. With the dental practice in the field of maxillofacial surgery, which is prepared for such cases, those affected are on the right side. Fear of dentists must not become a brake, necessary treatments must be carried out now and not later. Anxiety patients must first admit that they are afraid of dental treatment. Treatment by a psychologist m / f / d will find out the causes of exaggerated fears. If you know the causes, you can find a way out of the dentist crisis.

Dental practice for difficult cases
