One of the challenging cases I encountered recently was a patient presenting with severe and persistent pain in the left lower jaw area. Swelling and sensitivity of the gums in this area and the inability to fully open the mouth were among the symptoms that bothered the patient. This condition, as expected, was related to a large, impacted wisdom tooth that did not have enough room to grow, causing pressure and inflammation.

Accurate diagnosis and surgical planning

First, a clinical examination was performed to evaluate the general condition of the jaw and teeth. Then, for more detailed examination, we used panoramic radiography . This image showed that the wisdom tooth has grown latently and puts pressure on the adjacent teeth. For more accurate planning and reducing the possibility of risks, we used 3D CBCT imaging to determine the exact location of the roots and its proximity to the nerve.

The process of wisdom tooth surgery

This type of surgery comes with its own challenges, especially when the tooth is located near nerves or other important structures in the jaw. The surgery was performed in several stages:

1. Opening the gum : To access the hidden tooth, an incision was made in the gum area.
2. Tooth extraction : The wisdom tooth was removed in smaller pieces to minimize damage to the surrounding tissues.
3. Cleaning and suturing of the surgical site : After the surgery, the area was carefully cleaned and sutured.

The challenges of this surgery

In addition, the proximity of the roots to the maxillary nerve required more care to avoid possible damage. These cases made the planning and precise implementation of surgery more important.

Recovery process and post-surgery care

To speed up the healing process and prevent complications, the patient was advised:

• Use soft foods and liquids.
• Use a cold compress to reduce swelling.
• Maintaining oral hygiene by gently washing and not using a toothbrush in the surgical site.
