Comfortable Wisdom Tooth Extraction | Reliable Dentists in Ho Chi Minh
WHAT IS A WISDOM TOOTH?
Wisdom teeth, also known as the 8th teeth, are the last molars that erupt at the very back corners of the jaw. Wisdom teeth usually emerge between the ages of 17 to 25, the final stage of oral development.
These are the last teeth to appear, often when the jawbone has already fully developed, which usually leaves little room for eruption. This often leads to misaligned wisdom teeth, horizontal eruption, being trapped under the gums, impacted, or having abnormal root shapes.
Most wisdom teeth are recommended to be extracted unless they grow straight, in the correct position, and do not cause health complications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does wisdom tooth extraction hurt?
The extraction process is usually not painful because the dentist will administer local anesthesia to numb the surrounding area. You may feel some pressure or mild discomfort, but not pain. After extraction, there may be slight swelling, pain, and discomfort, which can be managed with pain medication prescribed by the dentist.
What should and should not be done after wisdom tooth extraction?
After extraction, you should:
- Apply ice to reduce swelling.
- Rest and avoid heavy activities within the first 24 hours.
- Eat soft foods and drink enough water.
- Keep your head elevated when resting.
- Maintain oral hygiene as instructed by the dentist, including gentle saltwater rinses after 24 hours.
You should not:
- Avoid smoking, using straws, or spitting forcefully, as these actions can dislodge the blood clot and cause dry socket.
- Do not eat hard, crunchy, or spicy foods that may irritate the wound.
- Do not touch the extraction area with your tongue or fingers.
How soon can I eat after wisdom tooth extraction?
You can start eating soft foods a few hours after extraction once the anesthesia wears off. It is recommended to eat foods like yogurt, mashed potatoes, soup, and smoothies during the first 24–48 hours. Gradually, you can move on to harder foods as you feel comfortable and the wound begins to heal.
Is an X-ray necessary before wisdom tooth extraction?
Yes, usually an X-ray is needed before wisdom tooth extraction. X-rays help the dentist assess the position, angle of eruption, and condition of the wisdom tooth, as well as identify potential issues such as proximity to nerves or sinuses.
How long does it take to heal after wisdom tooth extraction?
Initial healing usually takes about 1–2 weeks, during which swelling and pain will gradually subside. However, complete healing, including bone and tissue regeneration, may take several months. Following your dentist’s post-extraction care instructions will help speed up recovery.
