Wisdom Teeth Extraction in Thailand

Wisdom teeth extraction is a common dental procedure that involves the removal of one or more of the four adult teeth located at the back corners of your mouth. For many people, these teeth, also known as third molars, can cause problems when there isn't enough space for them to surface or grow properly. Thailand, renowned for its state-of-the-art dental clinics and skilled dental surgeons, has become a desirable destination for those seeking quality wisdom teeth extraction services.

Understanding Wisdom Teeth Extraction

Wisdom teeth extraction is necessary when there is not enough room in the mouth for these teeth to grow in properly. They can become impacted, meaning they remain completely or partially trapped within the gum, which can lead to pain, infection, or damage to adjacent teeth.

The extraction can be performed under local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia depending on the complexity of the case. Patients considering this procedure should be aware of potential risks, which can include infection, bleeding, and nerve damage. However, these complications are rare, especially when the procedure is performed by a skilled dental surgeon.

Preparing for Wisdom Teeth Extraction

Before a wisdom teeth extraction, a thorough examination of your mouth is conducted, including X-rays to determine the position of your wisdom teeth. The dental surgeon will explain the procedure and discuss the type of anesthesia that will be used.

In Thailand, you can be assured of finding highly qualified dental surgeons experienced in performing wisdom teeth extractions. Clinics in cities like Bangkok and Phuket boast state-of-the-art facilities and English-speaking staff, which is a plus for international patients.

The Wisdom Teeth Extraction Procedure

The wisdom teeth extraction procedure begins with the administration of anesthesia. The dentist or oral surgeon will then make an incision in the gum tissue to expose the tooth and bone. The tooth is then removed, and the extraction site is cleaned of any debris. The wound is stitched up to promote healing, though not all extractions will require stitches.

Recovering from Wisdom Teeth Extraction

Post extraction, it's normal to experience some swelling and mild discomfort, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and ice packs. The healing process takes a few days and requires a soft diet to avoid disturbing the extraction site.

After undergoing wisdom teeth extraction in Thailand, patients are advised to plan a recovery period of about a week in the country. This period allows for adequate rest and a follow-up visit to the dentist if necessary.

The Costs of Wisdom Teeth Extraction

The cost of wisdom teeth extraction in Thailand is generally between $100 and $200 per tooth. However, the final cost can vary depending on the complexity of the extraction and whether sedation is used. These costs do not include travel and accommodation expenses.

Emergency operation and post-surgery checkup

"I live in New Zealand, and my partner and I went on a holiday in Laos (Asia). I became sick and needed an emergency stomach operation. I reached out to this company, and they have been nothing but helpful.

They helped us with translating in Laos; they organised a taxi driver who was waiting for us at arrival and drove us to the hospital, where they organised a scan for me. I only needed to show my passport and an email when I arrived. I was already in the system for the appointment.

Everything went really smoothly. The company is professional and reliable, and the staff is super friendly too. I would highly recommend this company. I am grateful for the great service this company offered when I was in need."

I am very happy with the results. I cannot thank the people at Asia Cosmetic Hospital enough for their help and service while I was in the hospital and my stay at the hotel. I feel fine with very little if any pain and I am bringing my strength back up to before surgery.  I know it will take many months for everything to heal but right now I feel strong both physical and mentally.

Thank you Konkai for all the work on your part to bring this all together for me. You don’t know what this means to me.
