What is the best way to stop pain from wisdom teeth growth?

Take it from someone who has experienced this pain...there really is no relief from it. You can try oral anesthetics like Anbesol, or take anti-inflammatory pills such as Ibuprofen/Motrin IB. Also, soaking the area in warm, salty water is sometimes helpful to releive the pain. But in most cases, these effects are only temporary and won't keep you releived for long. Don't use anything like ice...that will only intensify the pain from the temperature extreme. If you feel you must try ice, then wrap it in a rag and hold it on the outside of your cheek. Same goes for warm salt water...make sure the water you use isn't too hot, because the extreme in temperature will be very painful. If you are experiencing this pain on a constant basis, that doesn't necessarily mean that they are ready to come out either. They may only be starting to come in. I first experienced pain from my wisdom teeth when I was 14 years old, which lasted about 5 weeks. They didn't actually come out until I was over 20 years old. If you haven't already done so, go to your dentist and get x-rays taken, and ask him/her what they think you should do. Many dentists may say 'just live with the pain because its temporary', but I know from firsthand experience that this pain can last for several weeks. If your dentist doesn't give you any kind of solution to the pain, then go ahead and use the methods above. Anbesol may not be useful unless you apply a large amount, so use that in conjunction with the Motrin. I recommend Motrin over any other pain releiver, simply because it is specifically designed for inflammations. If you don't have access to Motrin, regular aspirin may suffice, but I recommend a stronger aspirin, such as Bayer.

In a situation that you can't get a hold of any medication, there is one other thing you can do, though I highly recommend against it. If the pain is intense, clamp down on your jaw. Don't grind your teeth, but just bite down hard. The pressure of your jaw locking together will actually temporarily releive the pain, but like I said, DON'T do this if you can avoid it. You will inevitably grind your teeth, which will create more problems for you. As an alternative to direct biting, you can place gauss between your teeth so that they don't grind together while you clamp down.

If you find that the motrin and anbesol aren't working, try massaging the area. Be very gentle, since too much pressure will irritate you further. Take your finger and lightly rub it in a circular pattern around the enflamed area of the gum. If its too much of a bother to do from inside your mouth, then use the same technique, but do it outside the mouth on your cheek. You will have to apply more pressure since your cheek is in the way, but don't over do it. And don't massage too much, since the constant poking may irritate you even more.

The bottomline is that Wisdom tooth pain is inevitable and can't be avoided. The best I can tell you is that Motrin and Anbesol used together is probably the best solution. But since you may have this pain for quite some time, be sure not to overmedicate yourself. Only use it when you really need to, such as when you first wake up, when you are going to eat, or before you go to bed, so that you minimize the chance of you waking up from the pain. If you have any other concerns about wisdom teeth, check out www.webmd.com. It is a decent resource and if my answer didn't help you enough, then i'm sure you'll find something there that you can use.

Take an advil gel capsule break it and use it as a mouth wash on your wisdom teeth. That helps much better then warm water and salt.

Wisdom teeth are usually referred as the third set of molar teeth. They usually appear in the late teen years or between 16 to 25 year of age to be more specific. Mostly, adults have four of these. There is a possibility to have more than four and this condition is called supernumerary teeth. However, fewer growth of wisdom teeth refers to another condition called hypodontia. Generally, it was accepted that they should not be disturbed until they emerge fully from the gum before. At present, this is no longer practiced. The ongoing problems associated with erupted and impacted wisdom teeth were clearly understood by the dental professionals as well as the general public. It is advised to most people to deal with their wisdom teeth as early as possible and as soon as the roots are completely formed.

As the age increases, the risks involved in wisdom tooth extraction increases. More severe problems such as infection, swelling, pain or other medical conditions may occur before seeking any treatment. It is ideal to have your wisdom tooth extracted before the age of thirty-five because as you age older, the risks multiply due to the tendency of your teeth to fuse to the jawbone. During this period, the extraction may pose a big threat in the integrity of the jawbones.

Modern X-ray images are used by dental specialists and oral surgeons to assess properly the situation before the initiation of corrective treatment. The X-ray film will reveal clearly all the underlying structures of the teeth. Any potential complications will be discussed to the patient after proper assessment.

What is the best age to have your wisdom teeth extracted?

If there is no enough space in your mouth to accommodate the growth of the wisdom teeth, it is best to have them extracted before they fully developed. Some patients chose to have their wisdom teeth extracted as early age 13 or 14; some may be as late as 17 or 18 years of age. Undeniably, younger patients have faster healing process and lesser complications as compared to older patients.

Why is it necessary to extract wisdom teeth?

The disorders associated with the abnormal growth of wisdom teeth may cause a great deal of pain and suffering. Bite irregularity and other associated problem may be the result of shifting of other teeth due to the growth of wisdom teeth. Inflamed gum tissue, sinus problems, or infection may also be encountered. This can lead to a more serious problem like gum tissue inflammation, sinus problems, or infection. Whether you have any symptoms or not, the X-ray films will reveal if you have an ongoing infection or if your teeth failed to erupt through the gums.

One important requirement for the dentist is to have an extensive surgical skill especially if the tooth failed to erupt. It is important to see a qualified and competent dental professional or oral surgeon who has the proper equipment and training to meet the needs of the patient. For people who has phobia with dental procedures, intravenous (IV) sedation is often recommended. Your Albuquerque sedation dentist will provide the sedation methods for a possible "no pain" dental experience. The IV sedation method offers a very safe, predictable, pain free and memory free dental experience for patients having their wisdom teeth extracted. This is the reason why many patients prefer to be sedated during their surgery. Fortunately, it is possible to have all the required wisdom teeth extracted during a single visit.

After the extraction, it is normal for a patient to experience mild to moderate pain or discomfort. The pain usually responds to pain medications and other discomforts resolve eventually. It is very important to follow all the instructions following the minor surgery to prevent the occurrence of possible complications.

Having a wisdom tooth extracted is a serious matter. Various methods of sedation were made available by your Albuquerque sedation dentist to experience a pain free dental experience. Ideally, it is better to have the wisdom teeth extracted before they cause tremendous pain and suffering.
