My wisdom teeth didn\u2019t bother me when I was in my teens. Now I\u2019m 33 years old and they are starting to hurt. I don\u2019t do well at dentist\u2019s office. I\u2019m sure I have a phobia and I\u2019ve been dentist hopping for the past 3 years. I\u2019ve never let the same dentist clean my teeth for than twice. It seems like they usually find something wrong with my teeth, so I just move on to the next person so I won\u2019t feel any pressure. My wisdom teeth are starting to concern me because the gums around both bottom teeth are started to swell and they do hurt. The top wisdom teeth don\u2019t hurt every day, but I feel pain several times a week. Is this something an affordable dentist can? I have a new job and I have to wait 6 months for dental coverage. Also, how much pain should I expect? Jada<\/p>\n<p>Jada &#8211; If you have swollen gums around your wisdom teeth and they hurt, you should see a dentist right away. It sounds as if your wisdom teeth are infected.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not that the dentist will be able to extract the teeth, but he or she will examine your teeth, temporarily relieve the pain, and let you know your treatment options. If your wisdom teeth are impacted, or if a difficult removal is anticipated, you will be referred to an oral surgeon.<\/p>\n<h2>Ask about Options for Affordable Dental Care<\/h2>\n<p>When you call the office, you can ask about <a href=\"https:\/\/mirandalacydds.com\/financial-arrangements.html\">financial arrangements<\/a> and how the dentist can <a href=\"https:\/\/mirandalacydds.com\/affordable-dentist.html\">make treatment affordable<\/a> for you. Ask the same questions if you are referred to an oral surgeon.\u00a0 Payment plans and financing are often available.<\/p>\n<h2>Reasons to Visit a Dentist for Painful Wisdom Teeth<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s important to have your painful wisdom teeth examined by an emergency dentist right away. There are several reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They can cause other teeth to shift.<\/li>\n<li>As teeth shift, it can make it difficult to maintain good oral hygiene.<\/li>\n<li>Additional infections can occur and lead to root canal treatment for those teeth<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Oral surgeons are skilled at keeping pain and discomfort to a minimum with sedation dentistry. Most patients don\u2019t feel any pain during the extraction process. Discomfort after oral surgery is managed with prescribed painkillers. Be certain to follow post-care instructions.<\/p>\n<p>Before you visit an emergency dentist, take some time to check his or her credentials and experience.<\/p>\n<p>This post is sponsored by affordable <a href=\"https:\/\/mirandalacydds.com\/\">Plano TX dentist Dr. Miranda Lacy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can an affordable dentist do anything about wisdom teeth?
