A growing wisdom tooth can be one big nightmare, especially if it is trapped under a layer of gums that causes inflammation in the area and severe pain. Gingivectomy over a growing wisdom tooth (Operculectomy) is an intervention that occurs specifically to help the wisdom tooth erupt in the jaw, an intervention that occurs under local anesthesia and involves the removal of the gums that cover the wisdom tooth and prevent it from erupting and causing severe inflammation and pain.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A dentist can use a laser to remove the inflamed gums. After local anesthesia is given, the laser is held near the target tissue. Through laser pulses, the target tissue is detached and removed. The dentist should make sure that the tooth enamel is not damaged by the laser to prevent damage to the tooth. Once all the gum tissue covering the growing wisdom tooth has been removed, bleeding is stopped with the help of the laser as well as disinfection and bio-stimulation for more convenient and faster healing.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The patient must carefully follow the dentist's instructions, because the problems that may occur afterwards are much more severe than the pain with which he started, the risk of infection is high!<\/p>\n
Laser treatment of a growing wisdom tooth is recommended in order to prevent bacterial plaque culture, confinement of food debris and the development of tooth decay. Also avoid the appearance of pockets in the gums that later affect the rest of the teeth.<\/p>\n
