What Is an Impacted Tooth?

Impacted teeth are teeth that fail to fully emerge through the gums or remain stuck in an incorrect position within the jawbone. Wisdom teeth (third molars) are the most commonly impacted teeth, but canines and other teeth may also be affected.

Symptoms of Impacted Teeth:

• Severe pain and swelling

• Limited jaw movement

• Gum infection (abscess)

• Cavities or damage in neighboring teeth

1. Examination and Imaging

• Detailed clinical examination

• Digital panoramic X-rays to determine the tooth’s position

2. Surgical Planning

• Completely painless procedure with local anesthesia

• Sedation support available for sensitive patients

3. Minimally Invasive Extraction

• Removal of the tooth with special surgical techniques

4. Recovery Process
