Before pregnancy, it is necessary to undergo a comprehensive examination. If wisdom teeth are found to have grown during dental examination, and if they are very painful, people will not hesitate to remove them. But if you don't feel any pain, many women may think that you don't need to pull it out. So, do wisdom teeth not hurt before pregnancy and need to be extracted? Let's learn about it together.

If the wisdom teeth are very straight and have aligned teeth; When a patient needs to have their adjacent teeth repaired with wisdom teeth due to missing teeth, wisdom teeth may not be extracted, but this requires professional examination to confirm.
2. Most people's wisdom teeth need to be extracted, which means that for some hidden wisdom teeth, they should still be extracted before pregnancy. For example, due to incomplete eruption of wisdom teeth, the gum on the back of the tooth covers part of the crown to form a crown pocket. Due to unbearable pain, it can even lead to difficulty opening and eating, and the symptoms become more severe when inflamed again.
3. If wisdom teeth occasionally experience pain, then problems are more likely to occur during pregnancy. Because women undergo a series of physiological changes during pregnancy, they often experience gum bleeding, gum swelling, and pain in the mouth. If a tooth is extracted at this time, it is easy to bleed. In addition, the sensitivity to various external stimuli increases during pregnancy, and any operation needs to be done with caution.
