Why do Wisdom Teeth hurt really bad when being removed?

People say Wisdom Teeth are really painful to remove.





But why? They are the 3rd type of molars aren't they?





So why don't first or second molars hurt being removed?

Why do Wisdom Teeth hurt really bad when being removed?
It's painless having them taken out. It's afterwards.
Reply:because you're a n00b sauce
Reply:because you're ripping bone material out of your mouth, of course it's going to hurt! You're mouth is one of the most sensitive areas you have.





and who the heck gets their other molars removed? I've never heard of that, unless they have an impacted tooth or something... but either way, it's gonna hurt.
Reply:I had all 4 of mine out at one time and one they had to cut one out... I had the IV sedation...took one pill at 8:30 a.m., appointment at 9:30 a.m. I was awake the entire time and I don't remember ANYTHING...I even went to the drug store and filled my pain prescription...nada. I woke up at noon the next day. They were sore, but not bad at all after the stitches were out.
Reply:Wisdom teeth can become deformed or have other problems like decay that can make removing the teeth difficult. Sometimes the roots can be misshapen or fused together, and sometimes they don't fully come out of the gum line. The more problems you have with the teeth, the harder it is to get out and the more painful for you. The more normal the teeth and the fewer problems with them, the easier it is to get them out and less pain for you.
Reply:It hurts to have any permanent tooth removed. You are having, especially with oral surgery, somebody cut open part of you and pull out something that was there. The pain really comes with the novocain shot and when the shot wears off.
Reply:The actual removal process is painless, due to anesthetics, however, wisdom teeth have three roots, and those roots can go deep into the upper jaw bone (near the sinsuses) and the lower jaw. If the tooth becomes impacted, it's already causing pain, and usually has to be surgically removed instead of just 'pulled'. That can complicate things a bit with healing.





However, the younger you have them removed the better the process is and the recovery time is faster. I had my two lower wisdom teeth surgically extracted when I was age 16, and I was fully recovered after a few days. I had my upper right wisdom tooth removed at age 45 and I thought it would never heal...it eventually did but it took about three weeks to be totally pain free.





So they are not painful to remove. Afterwards things like ibuprofin and other pain meds will alleviate any discomfort, and it's usually quick.
Reply:Wisdom teeth are molars, the largest teeth that you have. Most of the time, when they are removed, some of them are impacted. That means they have not erupted through the gums yet. That means the dentist has to cut your gum and go in and find them to take them out. Their roots are embedded in your jaw bone. In the process of pulling them out, the dentist is putting a lot of pressure on your jaw, neck, head. I had a general when mine were removed and when I woke up both corners of my mouth were torn from being stretched. The back of my head hurt from being pushed into the chair. I was groggy from the anesthesia and I made the mistake of drinking a glass of milk when I got home which had me vomiting for hours. I think the removal of any tooth is going to hurt. I KNOW the removal of wisdom teeth hurts alot.
Reply:Hi, any residual pain created from an extraction has nothing to do with the tooth itself no matter which one it is, front, back or side...three main issues cause discomfort after an extraction and they are (1) if the tooth was impacted and difficult to remove and having to remove excessive bone structure..(2) the tooth was highly infected and (3) the tooth kept breaking off and the pieces had to be dug out....Like I said, no tooth extraction is immune to causing residual discomfort. Good luck and I wish you well.
Reply:Their not if your under sadation of novacane or an I.V. the root of your wisdom tooth is connected to the bone structure of the jaw. and any attempt to remove it yourself will cause pain...and i know you dont want to do that. go to the dentist, and have him remove it.
Reply:I think it's because of all the nerves tangled up with them. Also sometimes they have to cut the gum open to get them out. Sometimes they are even chisled out. Personally I would insist on being knocked out unless assured the extraction was going to be straightforward (some are).
Reply:I have had my two lower wisdom teeth pulled and I had no problems at all. I had no bruising and hardly any swelling. I took my pain pill for one day only because I wasn't ready to risk not taking them. I now seem to have a replacement wisdom tooth (supernumerary tooth) where one was pulled and hope my luck still holds.
