Wisdom teeth to be extracted before correction:
1, which requires tooth extraction correction.
If the teeth are irregular, crowded and there is not enough space, first pull out the wisdom teeth or have more teeth, depending on the patient's teeth.
2. Wisdom teeth can't erupt normally
This type of tooth is usually buried in alveolar bone. If it continues to grow later, it will squeeze into the front big teeth and need to be pulled out. If there is pain, even if the teeth are not corrected, they need to be pulled out.
3. No gnashing of teeth
Excessive eruption of wisdom teeth will affect occlusion and damage temporomandibular joint. In this case, it is recommended to delete them.
Orthodontics should consider the overall design needs, or because it is necessary to prevent the anterior teeth from crowding again after treatment, regardless of whether the wisdom teeth are well developed or not. For some special cases, such as the opening and closing of front teeth, the removal of wisdom teeth will be beneficial to the correction of tooth deformity. For the extraction of wisdom teeth in orthodontics, everyone's situation is different and needs specific analysis. ?
In short, as long as it has a bad influence on orthodontics, it will be suggested to pull it out as soon as possible!
Wisdom teeth that don't need to be extracted:
① Wisdom teeth erupt normally, arrange well after eruption, and establish a normal occlusion relationship, which has no effect on orthodontics and can be preserved.
② If teeth are sparse or molars are missing, wisdom teeth can be pulled out as molars.
If the growth position of wisdom teeth has no effect on orthodontics for the time being and you don't want to pull it out for the time being, you can pull it out first. However, if you go back to the clinic during correction and find that wisdom teeth affect tooth movement, you need to pull them out!
Therefore, it is recommended to communicate with doctors in detail when making a clear orthodontic plan. A good orthodontist will give you professional advice according to your dental condition!
