Wisdom Teeth Extraction Hillsboro OR![]() Lesser Crowding And Better Dental HealthThe minute your wisdom tooth starts appearing, it puts a lot of pressure on the adjacent molars in your mouth. This often leads to a cluster of teeth that keep coming in in the way of each other. Over time the molars start getting affected and it becomes difficult for you to eat from that side of your mouth. Extracting the wisdom teeth enables your molars to function effectively and it does not overcrowd your mouth. Wisdom tooth extraction is a simple procedure and it does not cause any discomfort when the procedure is done correctly. Ignoring your wisdom teeth and ignoring the problems that they cause could eventually lead to infections that spread to the other teeth as well. Your wisdom tooth will never grow completely and there is no real purpose for the tooth, which is why it makes more sense to get rid of it. Protect Your Adjacent TeethIt is not just wisdom teeth that may need to be extracted. When a tooth doesn't grow in properly, it can become very loose and weak. This invites a lot of bacteria and infections and it makes it a breeding ground for these bacteria to thrive. When you ignore extracting a tooth it can cause the infection to continue to spread. This infection eventually eats its way into the adjacent teeth. If you do not want to suffer from cavities or tooth decay, it makes sense to get rid of the tooth, if it is beyond the point of repair. If you thought that extraction was painful then there is no need for you to worry because this procedure is simple and you can get rid of the problematic tooth in a single visit.
