Should a horizontal wisdom tooth be extracted?

For the sake of your future, I hope you will remove this horizontal wisdom tooth.

The reasons are as follows; 1. This tooth does not function in your mouth, which means that it is useless to keep it. 2.

2. As you have noticed, there is always something stuck in there when you eat, which can easily decay the front teeth.

3. A horizontally blocked tooth exerts a forward force on the front teeth, crowding your lower front teeth for years to decades to come. Don't underestimate this slight force; orthodontics depends on it.

4. If you have a wisdom tooth that is growing right above you, and there is no resistance from below, it will grow longer and longer, which is not good for the joints, and in this case it is recommended that the upper and lower teeth be extracted together, and the upper teeth will be easier to pull out.

Of course, the horizontally-obstructed lower wisdom tooth is the most difficult tooth to pull out of the whole mouth, and it usually takes 20 minutes to an hour and three days of anti-inflammatory drugs and painkillers. The extraction process is not painful, but there is a slight pain for a couple of days afterward and some facial edema. However, after that, there is nothing to worry about. The dentist also has a lot of wisdom teeth, they do not hesitate to pull out.
