Impacted Wisdom Teeth
Third molars, commonly known as wisdom teeth, are located at the back of the mouth and are the last of the adult teeth to erupt (come out into the mouth).
Impacted Wisdom Teeth
Third molars, commonly known as wisdom teeth, are located at the back of the mouth and are the last of the adult teeth to erupt (come out into the mouth).
When these teeth are not able to come out and line up with the adjacent teeth, remaining retained inside the bone, they are known as impacted wisdom teeth.
Evolutively, human skulls and jaws used to be big enough to allow third molars to erupt. Third molars were very important to our ancestors for dietary reasons, they needed powerful jaws and teeth to chew their food. As humans and our diet evolved, we no longer needed big jaws nor three molars. Unfortunately, the size of our jaw did not change along with the number of teeth, and we ended up with four sets of third molars with less space available to develop and erupt. Consequently, it is highly common to find patients with unerupted wisdom molars, retained into their jaws in awkward positions (titled or horizontal), especially in the lower jaw, causing numerous problems.
Causes:
Wisdom teeth usually erupt between 17 and 25 years. Their size, shape and position vary on each patient, and so does the possibility for their eruption. Therefore, third molars are less likely to remain retained in people with bigger jaws or smaller teeth. In such cases, they erupt and line up with the other teeth in front of them, they are completely functional and allow adequate hygiene.
On the other hand, when the size of the jaws and the teeth differ, third molars will develop in a tilted or horizontal position toward the front tooth or will become trapped (impacted). In other cases, they can partially erupt and a small portion of their crown will remain covered by gum or bone. These last ones are the more dangerous for your oral health, as they tend to retain more plaque, their position makes hygiene difficult and sometimes painful.
Symptoms
Impacted wisdom teeth can continue unnoticed throughout life, particularly if they are retained deep inside the bone. However, many other times, impacted molars may damage the surrounding tissues or the tooth in front of it, especially when wisdom teeth have partially erupted. In such cases, the wisdom molars cause inflammation of the surrounding gum (opercle), which could produce severe pain that radiates to the ear and head. You may experience the following symptoms:
- Red or swollen gums which are tender or bleed.
- Jaw pain or difficulty to open your mouth.
- Bad breath or an unpleasant taste in your mouth.
However, not always problematic impacted wisdom teeth are symptomatic. Hence, the importance of consulting your dentist regularly. With a panoramic X-Ray (OPG), your dentist can find out if your wisdom teeth are developed, what is their position and what are the chances of them to properly emerge. Therefore, you can monitor their growth and keep a close eye for any arising complication associated.
Complications
Asymptomatic impacted wisdom teeth have been associated with a number of conditions and pathological changes. Some examples are:
- Inflammation of the gums.
- Resorption of the root of the adjacent tooth.
- Decay affecting the wisdom teeth or the teeth in front of them. This is due to food trapped in areas where it gets difficult to brush and floss, or the toothbrush does not reach. Bad oral hygiene habits worsen this condition.
- Development of cysts and tumours.
- There is no significant scientific evidence linking impacted wisdom teeth and dental crowding nor relapse of dental crowding after orthodontic treatment. Neither there is conclusive evidence proving an association between impacted lower third molars and headaches.
Some research states that only 12% of truly impacted teeth are associated with pathological conditions, additionally, there is no clear evidence of the influence of impacted third molars as a cause for anterior teeth crowding.
Diagnosis and treatment
Usually, the diagnosis is easily made by the dentist based on a full oral examination and a detailed questionnaire about your hygiene habits and general health.
To complete the diagnosis, the dentist will be using a set of X-Rays that will give an image of the status of your wisdom teeth, including their position within the jaw. A panoramic X-Ray will be used to evaluate the position of the wisdom teeth, their closeness with other anatomical structures such as the mandibular nerve or adjacent roots. Although the chances are low, in case some abnormality is found, your dentist may ask for more specialised 3D images.
Once the diagnosis is made, you and your dentist will take the decision to get your wisdom teeth extracted. Otherwise, if they are not causing symptoms, you can decide to just monitor them in time and see if any abnormality appears. However, if you want to be on the safe side and would like to get them extracted even though they are asymptomatic, you can opt for a prophylactic extraction.
Prophylactic Extractions
The removal of impacted third molars with no signs of disease. A prophylactic extraction is performed to prevent the development of pathological changes. Therefore, in most developed countries the procedure is considered as appropriate. However, according to the American National Institute of Health guidelines, the removal of asymptomatic third molars is not indicated, but a close and detailed monitoring must be performed instead.
Thus, there are absolute indications or contraindications for the removal of third molars have been established. Nevertheless, some oral and maxillofacial institutions and general dentists recommend the extraction of retained third molars, based on the lack of evidence that supports the predictability of unerupted pathology-free wisdom teeth will cause a disease.
Conservative Approach
When there is little to no-evidence suggesting your asymptomatic retained wisdom teeth are causing problems, they are less likely to cause trouble in the future. In such cases, especially for patients with underlying systemic problems, the risks of the procedure do not outweigh the benefits. Thus, a more conservative approach consists in monitoring your teeth for decay, gum disease or other complications. If problems arise, your dentist might consider removing them.
Surgical Removal
Impacted wisdom teeth that are not crucial for chewing function, are causing pain, decay and other dental problems must be extracted. In this category, we can almost always find partially erupted wisdom teeth, partially covered by bone or soft tissue where hygiene is extremely difficult and therefore produce inflammation or infectious complications. Thus, Extraction of a wisdom tooth is usually required for.
- Infection or gum disease (periodontal disease) involving the wisdom teeth.
- Tooth decay in partially erupted wisdom teeth.
- Cysts or tumours involving the wisdom teeth.
- Wisdom teeth that are causing damage to neighbouring teeth.
Extraction is almost always done as an outpatient procedure, so you’ll go home the same day. The process might include the use of pharmacological sedation or Intravenous (IV) sedation.
Conscious sedation differs from general anaesthesia in the level of consciousness you have. Pharmacological sedation relaxes your nervous system while keeping you conscious and responsive and IV sedation depresses your consciousness. There is no reported difference in the outcomes of the procedure by doing it under IV sedation, which prompts a substantially decreased anxiety before and during the procedure.

Had the horrifying experience of my front tooth just breaking completely off, I went to another dentist who quoted me $6000 for an implant..but he couldn't offer me any temporary replacement... there's no way I was walking around with no tooth for a week, googled implants and maxcare popped up with a deal of $3995. I called them they saw me straight away, I was given options but all came with the promise they could fix a temporary tooth.. they were friendly and really seemed to care..I walked out with my smile and dignity intact and will be back soon to get the implant.. couldn't recommend them more highly..great service.. amazing price

I only went to Maxcare Dental because I had a Grab One deal and it was across the road from my workplace. Normally I’ll never go into an establishment for Health Care unless it has been recommended to me AND I would never go into a Health Care establishment in Otahuhu either (personal choice).When I walked in, I was real surprised:1. It was clean and tidy (tick)2. Friendly staff (tick tick)3. Staff were professional, qualified and they knew what they were talking about and had been trained at a high level (tick tick tick)It ticked all the boxes for me. I have recommended Maxcare Dental to all my friends and colleagues (to their surprise lol). My wife has booked in to see Maxcare Dental and it’s now become my preferred choice when it comes to dental work!

The dental Clínic is outstanding with also excellent professional staff. I have been attended in 4 different Clinics before coming to this one and for sure this is the best. For those who fear going to the dentists my last 2 fillings I had here I suggested not to use anesthesia and I didn't feel any pain at all. They are really careful and have wonderful hands. Easy parking and online bookings.

I went to the max care all frightened but was assured it will be painless. When I went there I was blown away by the relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff . I have changed my dentist to max care because they treated me so well and informed the procedure every step of the way. She was young beautiful and yet so knowledgeable . I completely trust her. The receptionist and the assistant nurse too were so Curtiss and friendly . They really know their stuff and work as a team . The place is clean, location is easy accessible and open 7 days . It’s great for working people , can visit in the weekends and there is plenty of parking . I have been to many dentists previously , but I really recommend Maxcare Dental. I give them 10/10 . They reminded me of my appointments . Max are provided me the service beyond my expectation. And I THANK YOU😃😃😃😃😃

Dr Tazeen is that rare kind of person that exudes professionalism but also is genuinely caring, and goes out of her way to advise you on what is best for your own personal dental health. In a situation where most of us are nervous and (with suction, etc in our mouths) unable to speak!) Dr Tazeen intuitively knows when to check in on you, and adjust any procedure to make you instantly more comfortable. The practice, in general, offers top quality work without the 'posh people' prices, and they stay away from sales pitches and hard-sells, while offering clear information and solid support. Highly recommended.

Dr Tazeen Khan, was very professional and so kind and thoughtful right from the start, I was super nervous in seeing a Dentist. I wanted to see a female Dentist, she put my worries at ease, cared about my feelings, she worked without any breaks and always che led to see how I was feeling. Dr Khan worked so fast and had everything done in the same day, she did moulds done all in one day and her assistant was very professional as well. I've never felt so cared for in such a kind and caring way. I would recommend her to everyone.

My wife and I both had work done at Maxcare Dental in Otahuhu and we were very pleased with the whole experience. The clinic looked very modern and clean. The receptionist was friendly and very helpful. The dentist was very professional and gave us great advise concerning care needed and after care. The cost was competive and reasonable but still a lot for a low income family. We did receive a slight discount which means alot as every cent counts. Overall, we are very satisfied with our experience, this is why we are back a second time. We'll done Maxcare Otahuhu.

I would like to express my gratitude for your wonderful dentist finding the infection that wasn't presenting on the 19th when I came for a review. I am very relieved now I returned so soon as I have been very unwell since the implant failure months ago and I am looking forward to becoming well again. I found his technique and skills outstanding and I will be referring people to your clinic to see him.I would also like to share that I thanked Lydia the dental assistant today. I have never thanked an assisting person before but she did an amazing job. I normally find suctioning extremely uncomfortable and usually the fluid still runs down the back of my throat causing me to gag. I would say she would be the best dental assistant I have ever experienced with excellent technique. Finally I would like to mention Anna she is always very friendly and helpful.I wanted to share my personal feeling toward your staff I encountered today and to let you be proud of them especially in the current difficult situation all New Zealanders and all businesses are facing.you have an outstanding Team working for you Rating 5/5

After consulting multiple orthodontists, I decided to go ahead with Maxcare Dental. They were very reasonably priced, very close to my work and home and also open during weekends and not overly busy. I had my wedding planned for end of the year and all other orthodontists I consulted told me that they cant fix it within a year time but Dr Ramneek Kaur told me that she can do it. She booked me for adjustments every 2-3 weeks and I was off braces within 10 months with amazingly straight teeth. I couldn't be happier with the service I received from her, have exceeded my expectation in everyway. The staff is very friendly as well.

I called them and they took us in straight away we were able to get an appointment within an hour. They have amazing service and the dentist we saw this morning was so good especially with a 5 year old who hates going to the dentist. Thank you so much to the team at Maxcare Dental for making our visit a good one, highly recommend!

Maxcare Dental were my choice of dental care after several visits and quotes at other centres. The appointments to assess the treatments I needed were handled in a very professional manner. I felt respected and a part of all discussions. I was well informed through every step of treatment over a couple months and encouraged to ask questions or give feedback as the appointments were in progress. The treatment rooms are airy and well maintained. The chairside assistants are just as friendly and non-judgemental.It is great to find a service that you can trust completely to take care of you. Absolutely recommending Maxcare Dental.

From reception to nurse and doctor, very courteous and professional, friendly service. My questions were answered with respect and in lamens terms.My molar tooth was removed with care and with each step being explained by Doctor Ahmed and(unbelievably) the tooth came out fairly quickly and without pain.Post op, Doctor Ahmed gave me a through explanation for my after care. Quick and professional extraction. Thank you Doctor and team.

I love the service and Dr. Hafiz has restored my faith in dentists. All the staff are wonderful and so helpful. I used to avoid the dentist like the plague but I actually enjoy going to the dentist now. Everything is explained clearly at Maxcare and it was great to be able to discuss all my options so I could make decisions that suit my budget.

Great service so far, I wasn't able to do my tooth extraction yet as Dr Abdul-Hamid couldn't perform my procedure due to the severe swelling. Clearly shows his professional approach to care for patients health & well being. First impression is important & im looking forward to my next appointment. Your receptionist is lovely, prompt & informative.

Fantastic. I went for wisdom tooth extraction and everything went well. The receptionist was friendly, there was no wait time, and the dentist made me feel easy, took time to explain everything I asked before and after the extraction, and allowed my family member in the extraction room to take pictures.Great experience overall. It's been over two weeks now and I've absolutely nothing to complain about. I'd recommend it to my whanau and friends without hesitation.

These dental practice has to be one of the best in Auckland. My mother was seeing Dr. Tazeen khan. She was super professional, caring and very knowledgeable and provided us with many options. In 22 years in my view - these guys are simply the best and they connect and make people feel home and super professional at what they do.

Communication, service, and staff are very friendly once entering their doors and a sense of calmness eases your nerves once meeting the team. A comfortable and amazing environment. Highly recommend and will be spreading the word out that Maxcare Dental is an amazing place to go. Any questions you have will sure be answered even when asking them twice.

My daughter recommended their service, originally I wanted to get other quotes because I knew the bill was going to be expensive however after my initial consultation with the Dentist I was comfortable enough to return and get my extractions done.My experience upon arrival to post procedure I left feeling pain free and happy with the service delivery. The receptionist did everything right to be safe with the 2m distancing and checking my temperature with scanner.I do recommend their service and very grateful to the team.

I went here for a root canal treatment today. I’ve had root canals before so I knew what to expect but since this was my first time at this practice I went in without expectations. I was blown away by the awesome service! The receptionist was very polite and professional. Booking my appointment was easy and she gave clear instructions. Very welcoming.Dr Hassan Mohamed Ahmed treated me. He was thorough, patient, gentle and professional. I didn’t feel like I was being pressured into anything like most of the other dental clinics I’ve been to. He asked me what I came in for and he treated it. Since I’ve had root canals before, I had expected a fair amount of pain but I can happily say that the procedure was 99% painless! I felt taken care of, safe and comfortable. Very pleased with everything. They also have some pretty awesome payment options including After pay. I highly recommend Maxcare and Dr Ahmed! I will be going back there for all my dental needs.

Best customer care service from the team and Dentist. Rang on a Friday afternoon and was seen the next morning. A caring, supportive team, am very appreciative. Consultation was free and Dentist very thorough in his role and great advice plus he did provide some work (minor) at no cost. Highly recommend. Thanks Maxcare Dental, Otahuhu🤗

I initially went to Maxcare Dental firstly because they offer different payment methods (we all know dental work can be pricey!) which meant I wasnt forking out the full cost on each visit and can pay it off instead. I had Dr. Tazeen Khan and she was/is amazing. She talked me through everything, and my experience was excellent, so quick and painless. I've had so far 2 procedures (1 root canal and 1 wisdom extraction) with her and have already made plans to continue more treatments with her. Highly recommend this clinic!

Super happy with the service here. I just rang for an immediate appointment and they were able to see me on the same day, I was pretty stoked. The process was so easy and efficient. My friend said to come here because they loved the service and they are so right. This is my first time and I was treated with so much respect. I felt comfortable and good vibes. The dentist was very informative of what I wanted and gave me time to make decisions. I highly recommend Maxcare dental, I have more visits to go. Professional, caring and respectful service. The place is Clean and tidy. I am happy they also have an afterpay option which suits me well. I look forward to my next visit.☺

Thank you Dr Hassan Mohamed Ahmed and Shameeta 😊 you guys are awesome. I had my Stage 2 root canal done today. I had a bit of a tickle in my throat during the procedure and had a coughing fit. They both made me feel comfortable and let me get settled. I was offered tea and throat lozenges to calm my throat. We proceeded after a while and managed to get it all done.Thank you both for being so professional yet caring. I will come back to have the crown put on 🙏😊

Just saw the owner of the dental practice Dr. Khan for an emergency extraction, not only did they fit me in a very short time frame but she was the kindest, most gentle dentist I have every been too. And charged me half of what I've paid for similar work at other dentists!!! There is no question in my mind that she is now my regular dentist (at the end of the app I got full x-rays and discussed future work that will be needed with her) and I cannot recommend her and her practice enough! Not only is their service amazing but you're supporting a 8WOC, a mother and business owner!

Excellent team here at Maxcare dental Otahuhu, I visited on Saturday, Saw Dr Mohammed.He was very honest and after visiting 4 dentist in last 2 year, I found him very knowledgeable. He guided me in the right direction and diagnosed the issue efficiently/accurately. At not one point, I felt like I m being treated as a cash cow.Even when i ask them to refer me to a surgeon, They did it straight away understanding how my insurance will work for wisdom removal even when the knew that means they don't get to make money from me in this instance.I will definitely be back at their clinic for the 2nd part- which is Tooth filling later.

I recently visited MaxCare Dental for a checkup as I was having pain in my tooth and was thoroughly impressed with the level of care I received. The office is clean and modern, and the staff are friendly and welcoming.Dr. Tazeen Khan is a true professional and takes the time to explain any dental issues and answer any questions I had. The cleaning was thorough but gentle, and I appreciated the tips and advice on how to maintain good oral hygiene.Overall, I would highly recommend MaxCare Dental to anyone in need of dental care. They truly go above and beyond to make their patients feel comfortable and well-cared for.

Massey Clinic - well priced and extremely pleased with their efforts to follow up on a pain issue that wasn’t resolved through the initial fillings. Turned out to be an anomaly bone spicule which didn’t show on an x ray - I came back for a follow up appointment and they resolved this and didn’t charge me. Really appreciate the service and effort put in to ensure my pain was resolved. Highly recommend this new clinic!

Maxcare dental is that one place for our dental services. Very friendly n helpful staff with lot of patience. When I visited the clinic, I didn't take any appointment before my visit but after talking to me, the receptionist came to know that I was in a lot of pain. She some how squeezed me in and I had my treatment done on the same day by a very friendly and caring dentist.She was very patience as she knew i was so scared. The numbing process was just the way i wanted and expected.Thanks to the whole team for the support. I highly recommend Maxcare Dental Clinic for all your dental needs.

I recently had the pleasure of being treated by Dr. Swati Rathore for a wisdom tooth extraction, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment I walked into her office, Dr. Rathore made me feel at ease with her warm and reassuring demeanor. She explained the entire procedure in detail, addressing all my concerns and assuring me that everything would be fine and virtually painless.True to her word, the extraction was smooth and surprisingly comfortable. Dr. Rathore's expertise and gentle approach made what I anticipated to be a daunting experience completely stress-free. Her professionalism and compassion are truly commendable. I highly recommend Dr. Swati Rathore to anyone in need of dental care. She is a fantastic dentist who genuinely cares about her patients' well-being. Thank you, Dr. Rathore, for your exceptional service!

I got my wisdom tooth extracted and dental hygiene done by Dr. Hassan Ahmed. He explained everything in details, asked me in every step of the procedure if I was comfortable enough while explaining each detail throughout the extraction. He was quite gentle.The pricing was also reasonable compared to other clinics. Overall it was a good experience and will definitely recommend him.

They were all so helpful . When I got there I didn't have to wait for that long. Procedure was done perfectly on time. Everything went very well and smooth. It was painless.

I had an infected wisdom tooth that couldn't be removed by my dentist, but was treated for the infection and was offered to contact a private specialist, but found it was very expensive.I kept coming across Maxcare Dental online, so I got a consult and they were able to remove my tooth a couple of days later🙂 Thank you to the team who took care of me, from my initial consult to the long but careful extraction. It was intense and worrying at first but I was put at ease from the obvious expertise of Dr Muhammed and his team.I will definitely come back for all my toothy needs and recommend this team for professional and affordable dental care 💯

My husband was suffering from tooth pain for about 4-5 days and today couldn’t stand the pain and wanted the tooth out! Looked up dental clinics that were open today -Sunday and thought some said they were open 7 days - only when looking on their website -Not the case - Liars 😠 . Luckily saw Maxcare Otahuhu -green open! Into the car we went- Hubs and I. On the way to clinic called up and a wonderful polite and helpful staff on phone line said that though day is full of bookings if we were to get to clinic before a client gets there at 10:15am or around that time, they’ll see if an extraction can be done. Husband and I parked up at clinic at around 10’ish, filled out a new patient form and boom Hubbs was seen as soon as form was done and put into their system by desk staff. ( The wonderful person who talked to me over phone) Dentist and assistant were also lovely and patient with me when I explained /translated what was to happen for my husband on his tooth and the aftercare when home. All in all - Great service and care and very quick! Husband is happy and so am I.
