Questions About Dr. Abu Sawood
What is an oral and maxillofacial surgeon?
An oral and maxillofacial surgeon is a dentist with three years of specialist surgical training (MDS) in the mouth, teeth and jaws. They handle impacted wisdom teeth, difficult extractions, pre-implant surgery and jaw problems.
Do all wisdom teeth need to be removed?
No. Wisdom teeth that have come through fully and can be cleaned properly can often stay. Removal is usually advised when they are impacted, keep getting infected, damage the neighbouring tooth or cause pain.
How long does recovery take after wisdom tooth surgery?
Most people are back to their normal routine within three to five days. Swelling usually peaks on the second or third day and then settles. Dr. Abu Sawood explains exactly how to care for the area and when to come back for a check.
Can I get an implant after a tooth is removed?
Often, yes. Dr. Abu Sawood can preserve the bone when he removes the tooth, so that an implant can be placed once the area has healed. Our prosthodontist, Dr. Vatika Agarwal, then plans the implant and the tooth on top of it.
