Third molar extraction, commonly known as wisdom tooth removal, is a common dental procedure performed to remove one or more of the third molars (wisdom teeth) in the back of the mouth. These teeth often need to be removed because they can cause various dental problems such as impaction, infection, misalignment, or damage to adjacent teeth. Wisdom teeth typically emerge between the ages of 17 and 25, and due to lack of space in the mouth, they often fail to erupt properly. In Dwarka, several dental clinics offer professional third molar extraction services, performed by experienced oral surgeons or dentists. The procedure is usually done under local anesthesia to ensure that patients remain comfortable during the extraction process. In some cases, sedation or general anesthesia may be recommended, especially for more complex extractions. After the procedure, patients may experience some swelling and discomfort, but this can typically be managed with prescribed pain medication and following post-operative care instructions. Recovery time usually ranges from a few days to a week, depending on the complexity of the extraction.
