Wisdom tooth (akl daant) ka pain kabhi-kabhi mild hota hai aur 2–3 din me settle bhi ho jaata hai. Lekin kai baar ye pain repeated hota hai aur infection ka reason ban jata hai. Asal game hai: wisdom tooth ka direction aur space.
Agar wisdom tooth properly aaraha ho aur gum bas thoda sore ho, to aapko mild swelling, jaw tightness, aur chew karte time discomfort feel ho sakta hai. Is stage par warm salt water rinse, soft food, aur hygiene maintain karna kaafi help karta hai.
Problem tab hoti hai jab wisdom tooth partially erupted ho. Gum ka flap upar reh jaata hai jisme food phans jata hai aur infection (pericoronitis) ho sakta hai. Signs: bad breath, swelling, ear ke paas pain, mouth kholne me problem, aur kabhi fever. Agar tooth sideways/angled ho (impacted), to adjacent tooth ko push karke cavity aur gum damage bhi kar sakta hai.
Extraction ke strong signals:
- Pain baar-baar return ho
- Swelling + pus / bad smell
- Mouth opening limited
- Adjacent tooth me cavity/pressure
- X-ray me impacted position
Home remedies pain ko temporarily calm kar sakti hain, par root cause nahi hatati. Dentists usually X-ray ke baad decide karte hain—kabhi antibiotics + cleaning, aur kabhi extraction best option hota hai. Early action se complications aur cost dono kam rehte hain.
