Disimpaction of tooth
When a wisdom tooth is lodged in the bone and soft tissue, this condition is known as IMPACTION. And removal of such teeth is known as DISIMPACTION.
The oral cavity often harnesses teeth which, due to certain developmental difficulties, do not erupt in their right place. They often remain dormant inside the bone. However, when they pose a problem due to the forces they exert or when they become foci of infection, their removal is their only cure.
The most common impactions are seen in cases of wisdom teeth (third molars). Sometimes, even canines or other teeth might be found impacted in one’s mouth
Each individual wisdom tooth is unique and depending on how it grows, it can have different impact on bones and/or tissues. Their varied developments may effect other teeth and cause troubles. When they need to be removed, experts from DentiCare are the ones who can easily help you.
If the impaction is between the third molar and part of the second molar, this kind is calledbone impaction. It can subcategorized into vertical, horizontal, and angular depending on the way they are intersecting. If the wisdom tooth is directly breaking out of the tissue, it is known as tissue impaction.
