Wisdom tooth removing

BrightSide Shorts0:32

Transcription

Removing a wisdom tooth is tricky. It's hiding behind gums and other teeth.

First, you get anesthesia so you won't feel anything. Then the surgeon makes a small cut to expose the tooth. If there's not enough room, they'll split it into two parts.

First, they'll remove the crown, then the roots. After the tooth is out, the surgeon will stitch the gums back up. Then a blood clot will form, helping the bone heal. [Music]
