Dr Ryan moved to Melbourne, Australia for his professional training as a dentist. Upon completing his Bachelor of Dental Surgery in the University of Melbourne, he moved to Singapore and practised a few years in the private sector. He believes that every patient should be treated as a family member and ensures that he offers optimal treatment options. Besides general restorative dentistry, Dr Ryan's practice focuses on surgical extractions and implant surgeries.
You've probably heard of your friends and family extracting their wisdom teeth. Your dentist might have even recomended this procedure to you at some point. Have you ever wondered why?
For most people, their wisdom teeth tend to erupt at a region where there's a lack of space. These wisdom teeth are often misaligned or angled horizontally. When that happens, they are considered to be impacted. That leads to common symptoms such as aching jaws, pain, headache, and swollen gums.
There are also other reasons why your dentist would recommend removing a tooth for the good of your dental health.
