Wisdom teeth removal
By the age of 18, most adults have 32 teeth; 16 teeth on the top and 16 teeth on the bottom. Each tooth in the mouth has a specific name and function. The teeth in the front of the mouth (incisors, canine, and bicuspid teeth) are ideal for grasping and biting food into smaller pieces. The back teeth (molar teeth) are used to grind food up into a consistency suitable for swallowing.
The average mouth is made to hold only 28 teeth. It can be painful when 32 teeth try to fit in a mouth that holds only 28 teeth. These four other teeth are your third molars, also known as "wisdom teeth." These can become problematic.
Why Should I Have My Wisdom Teeth Removed?
Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to erupt within the mouth. When they align properly and gum tissue is healthy, wisdom teeth do not have to be removed. Unfortunately, this does not generally happen. The extraction of wisdom teeth is necessary when they are prevented from properly erupting within the mouth. They may grow sideways, partially emerge from the gum, and even remain trapped beneath the gum and bone. Impacted teeth can take many positions in the bone as they attempt to find a pathway that will allow them to successfully erupt.
These poorly positioned impacted teeth can cause many problems. When they are partially erupted, the opening around the teeth allows bacteria to grow and will eventually cause an infection. The result: swelling, stiffness, pain, and illness. The pressure from the erupting wisdom teeth may move other teeth and disrupt the orthodontic or natural alignment of teeth. The most serious problem occurs when tumors or cysts form around the impacted wisdom teeth, resulting in the destruction of the jawbone and healthy teeth. Removal of the offending impacted teeth usually resolves these problems. Early removal is recommended to avoid such future problems and to decrease the surgical risk involved with the procedure.
Advanced Dental Scarsdale has been closely monitoring the scientific data around COVID-19. We constantly creating new protocols to improve our dental office safety oral surgery and orthodontics procedures. Acknowledging that the pandemic may be with us for 1-2 years has allowed us to work with laser focus on adapting our practices.

If one of these problems is present the following may develop
• Pain or tenderness in the gums or jawbone
• Bad breath
• Redness or swelling in the gums
• An unpleasant taste in the mouth
• Headaches or jaw ache.
Removal
in most cases, the removal of wisdom teeth is performed under local anesthesia,IV sedation or general anesthesia. These options, as well as the possible surgical risks, will be discussed with you before the procedure is performed. Once the teeth are removed, the gum is sutured. To help control bleeding, gauze is placed in your mouth. You will rest under our supervision in the office until you are ready to be taken home. Upon discharge, your postoperative kit will include postoperative instructions, a prescription for pain medication, antibiotics, and a follow-up appointment in one week.

PATIENT ARRIVAL AND SCREENING
Prior to your appointment, our team will call you to confirm that you have no symptoms of COVID-19, and will email you all of the forms that need to be filled out. As you enter our office, you will receive a PPE package, which includes a mask, lab coat, gloves, hat, and foot covers, and your temperature will be taken.
When you enter the treatment room, we will ask you to rinse with hydrogen peroxide, a very safe and effective oral antiseptic.
Practicing behaviors such as social distancing and personal hygiene constantly prove themselves to be the most effective ways of staying safe. This is why our team has taken time to alter the safety control measures we have always followed to include new ones specific to COVID-19. Office cleanliness has always been our top priority, but we now start each day by taking temperatures, checking ourselves for any symptoms, and taking the same precautions we ask our patients to follow. Our team has also taken this time to review the safety precautions we take at home and as we continue our daily lives. Following the guidelines set by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) will help us keep our loved ones, work environments and communities safe.
(PPE) PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Our office has N95 masks, face shields, surgical caps and gowns, touchless infrared thermometers and hand sanitizer dispensers. N95 masks, face shields, surgical caps and gowns ARE SINGLE USE ONLY. Difficult-to-clean items and clutter have been removed from the office and treatment rooms. This allows for effective and efficient cleaning between patients.
Misting with electrolyzed water is proven to be far more effective and safe than peroxide and bleach products used in broad spectrum room disinfection. It has been used in hospital settings for years, and is now commonly found in dental settings. Our team has also taken air filtration measures, such as adding high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters that scrub the air of large particles, and PiCO air purifiers that sterilize and inactivate viruses and bacteria. All common areas and treatments rooms have both types of filters installed to maximize efficiency and safety. After seeing a patient and after closing our team will be using ultraviolet-C (UV-C) light, which is proven to be effective against viruses and bacteria.
