When Should I Get Them Removed?
The first step should be getting an X-ray done by your doctor as soon as possible. This will let the dentist know exactly how many of your wisdom teeth are impacted, and also help them estimate around what time you’ll need to have them removed. After that, be sure to be conscious of any discomfort or unusual feeling you may have in your jaw that could be your wisdom teeth coming through. Of course, it’s imperative to act quickly so that your smile will not be affected.
Having your wisdom teeth removed is a surgical procedure, so you’ll likely be given a moderate sedative to relax you during the process. Moderate anesthesia like oral conscious sedation typically requires a bit of recovery time, so make sure you have a trusted relative or friend to drive you home after the procedure.
