How to cure severe toothache caused due to erupting wisdom teeth?

Hello,

Welcome to cliniq.com.

I understand your concern. The age of eruption of wisdom teeth is between 17 to 21 years. Beyond that, if the wisdom tooth has not erupted, half erupted, or is painful, it is likely to be locked inside the jaw. Since they are the last one to erupt, most of them does not get enough space to erupt and cause jaw pain, and sometimes the surrounding structures of the same side temple, ear, and throat becomes painful too. This wisdom tooth is called an impacted tooth. Please visit a nearby dentist and get an X-ray of your wisdom tooth to check whether there is enough space for it to erupt and whether it is erupting in the right direction. Painkillers will help control pain, but if the tooth is impacted, this will not be a permanent solution.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
