Patient's question:
I have had a long wisdom tooth for over a year now. It has basically grown in completely, but it has grown a bit crooked. I don't want to have it extracted. Recently, my wisdom tooth has been inflamed frequently, and it has also caused bad breath. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
The wisdom tooth is always inflamed, which can lead to heart disease. It is recommended to take oral antibiotics and avoid consuming spicy foods. If there are dental problems, it is necessary to address them first. In some cases, repair or surgical removal of the unnecessary teeth may be required. In addition to timely treatment for bad breath, patients should also pay attention to care aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy foods. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for treatment to achieve good therapeutic effects.
