Q: Both of my wisdom tooth are in horizontal position. As a result of growth of these tooth the other nearby tooth has broken partly. I had consulted a dentist who suggested extraction of both the wisdom tooth and also the other tooth near the wisdom tooth. I would like to know if any complications/risks is involved while extraction of the wisdom tooth.
A:-Both the horizontally impacted wisdom teeth should be removed surgically by an oral surgeon. -The adjacent teeth X-Ray should be seen and then assessed whether they can be saved by an RCT( root canal treatment) or if they are beyond repair.
