What are wisdom teeth? 

Wisdom teeth are the last ones to erupt into the oral cavity. 'Impacted wisdom tooth' happens when there is not enough space for them to erupt into proper position like other teeth do. 



Type of wisdom tooth impaction

 




Problems very commonly associated with impacted wisdom tooth are:
 

- Inflammation of the gum surrounding the wisdom tooth. 
 

The gum will appear swollen and painful with food frequently getting stuck around the area. Poor oral hygiene predispose to gum and facial infection; on some occasions they can also be be the cause of pain around your jaw joint.

 

 


- Tooth decay

Some wisdom teeth might not present with any symptoms yet but there may be a problem developing or there is high risk of a problem developing that you may be unaware of. These early 'hidden decays' are usually visible on the x-ray of your teeth.

If left untreated, the decay may also involve the tooth in front of the wisdom tooth. At later stages, the decay may get to the extent that the tooth in front has to be removed as well.




Regular dental checkup is very important as you might not even realize the extent of your problem. It's better to be safe than sorry. Any enquiry please do not hesitate to contact us.

What are clear aligners?
 

Clear, removable appliances that are custom-made to tightly fit over the teeth. They are used to move teeth and align jaws to create a healthy, beautiful smile. 

 

                                               

How does aligners work?
 

Patient will be examined by an orthodontist first. Diagnostic records such as: x-rays, photographs, and impressions or digital scans of teeth are taken. Based on the information, the orthodontist will plan the treatment process - which tooth moves where, and in what order. The computer will also decide how many aligners you need in order to move the teeth in the direction required.You’ll be fitted for several versions of the aligners that make slight adjustment and giving slight force to move your teeth over the treatment time.
 

It is highly recommended that aligners be worn 22 hours daily, and to only remove during eating, brushing and flossing.

 

 

                   

        


 


 

Why aligner instead of braces?
 

Clear aligners are next-to-invisible and no brackets or wires are used, giving a pleasant look during the treatment period. Brackets often result in multiple ulcers in the mouth, something that rarely occurs with clear aligner. Clear aligner wearers are also able to clean more effectively as they can easily remove the aligner during eating, brushing and flossing.
