What causes impacted wisdom teeth pain?
When there is no space for the wisdom tooth to grow (because your jaw bone ...

The wisdom tooth may just partially erupt therefore being stuck under the gum partially.

Food particles can collect under this ‘flap’ and starts to rot.

Bacteria that are collecting under the wisdom tooth flap then cause a major infection leading to swelling of the area and severe wisdom teeth pain.

Additionally, the wisdom tooth that is opposing the one with the flap also hits on the flap that is swollen and causes trauma to the site, causing further wisdom tooth pain.

Impacted wisdom teeth pain can also happen if there is an abscess (collection of pus) under the impacted wisdom tooth.

Cysts are another cause. Getting wisdom tooth removal Sydney will enable treatment and lessen the pain.
